    hand brake adjustment

    I found one in ebay like mine, there is bolt under round base, I can not find the bracket for sale, maybe undo the bracket to access the bolt...

    hand brake adjustment

    I double checked it, the black rubber sits on fixed round base, there is no way to screw using a wench, a 13mm bolt may be fixing the bracket. I don't know if it is possible to adjust cable under car or maybe remove more under the console.

    Thanks!, I pulled out the knob straight up, there is no adjuster (bolt) like D1, 2004 D2 may have different design.

    If I can remove auto gear knob, I can get more space to access brake, I have not found info of how to remove it. brake level doesn't block plastic cover. I don't see e clip on the gear stick. See pics

    hand brake adjustment

    Okay, I released handbrake to get drum rotated left or right some distance after back off 1.5 turns. Now I tried to open centre brake console, I have removed the two screws in the box, and got the console loose but it is still hard to access brake cable, I can not find a way to get gear (auto)...

    hand brake adjustment

    I have screwed the bolt clockwise until tightened, then screwed anti-clockwise 1.5 turn as D2 manual said, I still feel drum (front plate?) tight. Do I need to release hand brake first?

    Hi My disco. 2 td5 failed MOT for the excessive moment of hand brake. I know this issue is not complicated but I have not done this. Can anyone tell me how to shorten travel distance of hand brake? Thanks! Kai

    Does a discovery2 td5 alternator have different capacity? e.g. some cars have ACE or non ACE, or AC or non AC. Mine have both ACE and AC.

    In theory, regulator has high input impedance measured from its output. If it is blown, the input impedance would drop to near zero, i. e. short for battery unless alternator has protection mechanism , this is my concern.

    I will get powerful battery as recommended by sierrafery. Is it worth to try to confirm if the alternator is faulty again with it? Would it damage the battery if the regulator of the alternator is damaged?

    Which battery is good?, I found tanya https://www.tayna.co.uk/car-batteries/enduroline/069/ matching my td5 automatic ES. But its height is 220mm higher than 190mm of Varta.
