Hi guys
I changed my pads all round today. I've done it once before on my ep3 but last time I did it I adjusted the handbrake cable from inside the car to get the handbrake lever back down but a week or two after the rear right calliper seized on. The garage said the calliper was knackered anyway and needed replacing. Anyway, I've done the same today, adjusted the hand brake cable from inside the cockpit so that it's not pointing in the air after doing my pads. The rear wheels felt warm when i parked up though. Could just be that it's a hot day but I'm worried I'm going to ruin the rear callipers again, yet the front alloys were warm too. I'll check again tomorrow but is there another method of adjusting the handbrake after changing pads?
Thanks
