How to adjust the handbrake of an Audi A4 B7

Model: Audi A4 B7 - Years 2004-2008
Part: Parking brake

In this video we can see how to adjust the handbrake of an Audi A4 B7: we will have to remove the cover behind the handbrake lever, which we can easily remove by levering from below. We find the mechanism that we see in the video, very different from the usual adjustment screw. Here we have to adjust the tension of the two rods, of which we then have to measure the difference in thickness compared to the calipers, to verify that we have had the same tension from both sides. It is therefore necessary to verify the operation using a tool called a "thickness gauge", which can be found for a few euros on any e-commerce platform.
