   i was reversing the saxo today, and ot felt like it was going over a bump or the handbrake was on but it wasnt, anyway it started squeel and then shudder then just stall all together, is this anything to do with the back axle or what ??

   also when i was reversing out my driveway it done the same again but the engine started reving up and down quickly, but this might be cuz iv got hardly any fuel and it was on a slight hill, any suggestions ?

   Sounds like its either your ICV (idle control valve causing the bouncing revs) or your handbrake is slightly stuck on, which is more apparent in reverse?

   mate just read all your threads, to me it sounds like your rear brakes, when you take the hand brake off can you push the car
