Hi all, My 06 galaxy mk3 has just passed its mot but the guy said that the handbrake was too loose. He said he could adjust it for us at a later date.

 

Am I right in saying it is automatic adjusting or is there a way of tightening it myself.

 

Any help would be appreciated.. thanks.. Baz.

Anyone???

 

The handbrake lever does come up quite high so i think it does need adjusting.

 

Anybody know how??

 

Thanks

I konw on my Mk2 when my lever used to go right up with no handbrake , i got a large spanner (22mm i think) and moved the arms on the rear calipers (where the hand brake cable is ) up and down , whilst appling some spray grease to the arm area,

The adjustment is where the 2 rear cables join the main cable from the hand brake handle, have a look under the car and you will see what i mean
