Handbrake needs adjusting

Featured Replies

Hi everyone

Handbrake needs adjusting on my 2004 54 Reg Skoda Fabia Vrs can anyone please help me with some advice on how to do this.

Many thanks in anticipation.

How many clicks is it on?

Mine is like 5 clicks on a very slight incline :|

Is that normal ?!

Yep, dont want any less than 5.

If you do need to adjust it take the "ashtray" out of the back of the centre console behind the handbrake and you shoud be able to get at the adjustment with a ring spanner
