Hey guys
Pulled up into a car park today, pulled up the handbrake and the car started rolling backward D: At the moment i have to pull it quite tight for it to hold the car....
Where do i start in terms of adjusting it? :s
Thanks,
Liam
There's an adjustment nut by the base of the lever, so off with the center console bit. Perhaps reachable by removing glove box?

Nope make sure you have enough brake pads for the hand brake. There are some springs can be adjusted in a hole in the disc by removing the wheels

start with the pads and other parking brake hardware as stated above and then adjust the parking brake nut if needed

The nut doesn't really do it.
I had this same issue and tried tightening that way. It does reduce the amount you need to pull the lever, but it does not make it hold any better.
I haven't solved the issue though, as I don't have inclines to park on in my city, and if I do Ill just leave it in gear for reassurance.
