Video tutorial

This video shows how to adjust the handbrake in an Audi A4 B7: you need to remove the cover located behind the handbrake lever, which can be easily pried off from underneath. Locate the mechanism shown in the video, which is very different from the usual adjustment screw.

Here, you need to adjust the tension of the two rods, measuring the thickness difference compared to the calipers to ensure equal tension on both sides. It is necessary to verify the operation using a tool called a "feeler gauge," which can be found for a few dollars on any e-commerce platform.
