2008 LC Hand Brake Adjustment

[TLC101]

Hi. Did anyone get a chance to adjust the hand brake for a 200 series LC? My has about 8 to 9 clicks. If you have the procedure / pictures to perform this adjustment, it will be great. Thanks.

There's not much room for adjustment from what I hear.

Not sure if I know what you mean but everytime I need adjustment on the hand brake it means that the rear brakes needs to be adjusted so I adjust it there every 5k to 10k and I have about two to three clicks on the hand brake now...

Rear brakes are still at 50%. I am familiar with adjustment to rear shoe/drum, but not sure with the disc pads for my 08 LC.

Thanks Old racer. Last time at the dealer, they adjusted the hand brake from 7 to 5 clicks, but it just lasted only a few pull. They probably made adjustment to the "adjusting nut" at the rear wheel only and not at the parking brake lever. Of course, lot more work removing the console cup holder box sub-assembly.
