Yesterday I released the parking brake and the button you push in went flying... Is there a spring that broke? |headscratch|

I've never seen a parking brake handle dis-assembled, but from what I've seen of them the plastic button itself probably broke. This allowed the spring to go flying. Long story short-I think you will have to replace the handle assembly.

PS-this is likely my last post before my membership expires. I wish you all well and hope you can help C3 owners keep those cars on the road. Thanks for a fun year-Mark
