How to adjust the handbrake on a Cruze?
1 Answers
The handbrake on the Cruze is self-adjusting and does not require manual adjustment. Below is detailed information about the Cruze handbrake: 1. The Cruze handbrake is self-adjusting. There is a self-adjuster installed inside the wheel hub. Each time you pull the handbrake, it automatically completes one adjustment cycle, and this happens every time, so no manual adjustment is needed. 2. First, check if the rear brake pads need replacement; open the center console and remove the bottom mat inside. Some handbrake cables underneath the handbrake lever have adjustable screws; the handbrake is located at the rear wheels and can only be seen when the car is on a lift. Each rear wheel has a cable, which then merges into one. There is an adjustable screw at the merging point.
