Thread: Hand brake adjustment

on the TD5 it is adjusted on the backplate of the handbrake drum. If that doesn't do the trick then the handbrake cable needs adjusting

Just a quick Q how many notches should the handbrake be as mines is 4

My old RR use to only have one ...

Disco 2 adjustment etc below. I think ours is about 4 clicks by memory. Peter

Early TD5's have the adjuster for the handbrake cable underneath the tunnel, accessed from beneath the car. Haynes describes both types but RAVE only shows the later type. Cheers, Andy
