I keep asking the mechanic to check my brakes and they keep coming back fine. 70k miles and I haven't done any maintenance on them yet. The mountain had a lot of small uphills combined with the greater downhill so I didn't have to brake much.Lynnishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08889190591596568509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3963892505582940622.post-244353257592072242008-10-13T19:51:00.000-04:002008-10-13T19:51:00.000-04:00Going downhill on mountains, it is sometimes false...Going downhill on mountains, it is sometimes false economy to put it in neutral or turn off the engine. <BR/><BR/>The reason, is that, depending on the degree of slope, you might need to use the brakes to control speed.
