unlikely that wd40 will cure handbrake cables, they are usually rusted internally and swelled up

Take the drums off, have a look one of the springs could have gone. Or piston is bust.

Been checked over and everything seems fine :S suppose for what it costs i could just replace a few thing to see if it stops it.
