E-Brake adjustment Options

[maurer11sdk]

I have been pulling my e-brake a bit and its a bit warn as some would say. I have been asking around about e-brake pads if i can purchase some. A lot of people have been telling me that i can just adjust my e-brake but noone has told me how to. Does anyone know what i can do in a situation like this? Is it possible for me to adjust somthing so my e-brake is back to normal because as of right now i dont have one at all

there are 2 ways to adjust your E-Brake.

You can adjust them at the rear through the access hole on the discs, or adjust the tensioner under the middle console.

You should only have 7 - 9 clicks when you pull up the e-brake. this gets adjusted by the tensioner under the middle console.

I think the adjuster at the disk should be backed off 8 clicks from being in the locked position. On the rear disk there is a rubber grommet that you need to pull off. inside that hole is a toothed adjuster. You can adjust it by using a screw driver. adjustment is up or down. release the e-brake and adjust the rear adjuster it till the wheel locks. then back it off 8 clicks. You will need to do that on both sides.

if that doesnt work then the pads need to be replaced.

Make an investment in a manual.... saves alot of time
