hi guys

ok all our 4 doors came out with a soild rear disk. but for some reason the hand break(ebreak) does not bite that well. i have ajusted to one click i get drag on the back wheels. it holds the car on a hill at 6 clicks but not if i am moving. even if i pull it all the way up and pull off the rear wheels turn and not lock.

do you guys have this problem too? or is there some way to fix it.

The ebrake is cable opperated so if you pop out you center console where the ebrake comes up there should be an adjustment fro the cable and if you adjust it out and it still wont grab get new pads.

x2. If you can adjust it as much as you can and you still experience the same problem pads and discs if they need changing
