I am looking to for a way to tighten the ebrake on my car? I have the pull the handle pretty far up and wanted to know if there was a simple adjustment so it does not have to travel far?

Aesthecially a less travel ebrake handle is much more pleasing than one way way high up.

Thanks!!

 

Yeah my ebrake is the same way. It's really annoying to me

 

you pull the plastic handle off and theres a 10mm bolt u tighten u will need a deep socket i had 2 do mine

 

mine does the same thing. usually i have to jerk the **** out of it for it to hold my car on a hill. lol

 

thank god some one figured this out i couldnt figure it out for awhile

 

****. i broke the little tab holding it on. lol worked tho.

 

sux i did that too now my handel slides back and forth

 

mines sorta tight, so i may be good for now. When i tested it, it held, so i think im good.

 

So before i literally pull this off. What did you mean by pull? It seems a few people broke theres. What is the 'correct' and 'least likely to f**k something up" way to get this handle off? Just wanna measure this twice before I cut. Thanks!

 

Use a flat head screw driver and push it at the little clip. Just be gentle with it and you'll be fine.
