Hand brake question
Hi guys
Just want to know my car doesnt show handbrake indicator on the first click, only shows it 2nd click and upwards. Is that normal or something i shouldnt worry about? I did test it in my friend's 320i 07 model and its different....his shows on the first click ![]() cheers Z |

My shows up in 1st click too. I dont think it is a problem thou. It just means that maybe ur sensor is position slightly higher thats all.
I do have a problem with my handbrake loosing up very quickly. I need to really pull hard to make sure that the car does not slide back when parking on slopes. Stealership charge me over $30 to tighten it up everytime. ![]()

I need to tighten my handbrake too - the sodding thing barely holds the car on a gently slope.
Anyone know if the electronic clutches need adjusting?? I remember by ancient E30 had to get the clutch pedal adjusted all the time as it loosened up |
