Pointing out that you turn the adjuster 'up' on pasenger side and 'down' on the driver's side was a vital piece of info which will have probably saved me having to remove the caliper and hub to reconnect the bits inside after i'd wound it apart 👍

I had this as well on hard left turns. I had a build up of corrosion in the hub which caused an insanely annoying squeaking/high pitched grinding sound and slower speeds. Had it removed under warranty and after that that scraping sound came up on left turns, but I think by the end of my spirited 40 minute drive home I’m pretty sure it disappeared🤔 I kind of forgot about it tbh. The mechanic also advised me to occasionally drive slowly and gently apply the handbrake to take off any corrosion in the drums. Since I never apply the brake brake whilst moving (I’m not drifting my 325d) I’ve never actually worn down the drums, so it makes sense 🙂

The handbrake lever should be released and the spring beneath the lever compressed before adjusting the shoes. You can push it back with a screwdriver until it catches on a small retaining clip located inside the spring, then decompressed after (this is to put tension on the cables). The normal jacking points can be used for each individual wheel.

Yeah after having some corrosion removed from my drums I’m now up to around 7 clicks which I don’t like, want to adjust them down to 4 as well. Only issue I see here is consistency in both sides? Surely both sides need to be exactly the same, so a method of counting turns or something similar should be used? I might be wrong and I’ve never adjusted a handbrake but that’s just what I can understand. Maybe count each notch on that adjusting wheel so you do the same each side. This obviously only works if it’s equal to start with🤔

I have more or less the same problem. Replaced my brake pads, cleaned everything up and it now almost seems as if it is worse than before. Tightened my pads as per the instructions here and "everywhere", and even though it seems to stop the wheels OK when the car is in the air after only 2 clicks, when parking in a steep-ish incline I have to pull the lever up to my ears to make it stop - and it only barely stops :( I am starting to think that the cables must have stretched, and with this stupid system there is no way to tighten anywhere to take up some of the slack, and I am looking at even more work and expense to have the cables renewed.

Really helpful, but I can't figure out how to detach the spring at the handbrake lever inside the car. If I push with a screw driver after putting the handbrake lever down, it's difficult to push and just springs back. Any advice welcome, thanks.

You don't need to do anything with the spring, you can do it all at the rear shoes adjustment, just jack the car up on the bottom arm under the suspension spring just enough to lift the wheel from the road, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠

I have adjusted from the rear adjusters to perfection but handbrake still needs to go all the way up to engage....I think this automatic adjuster spring is lost its tension but not sure. I've adjusted without engaging the service lock on the handbrake side I dont know if that makes any difference or not but I'm struggling to see the purpose of engaging the service lock dont think it would make any improvement on the tightens of the handbrake
