How to adjust the handbrake of the 2010 C3

Model: Citroen C3 SC - Years 2009-2016
Part: Parking brake

In today's article, we will see how to adjust the handbrake of the 2010 Citroen C3. For this operation, we will need a screwdriver with a torx t-15 tip and a 10mm wrench. For ease of maneuver, we recommend sitting in the rear seats of the car. To perform this procedure, we must first remove the two torx locking screws located at the rear of the handbrake. Once removed, remove the cover by pulling it towards you and upwards. At this point, locate the appropriate adjustment bolt and adjust it using the 10mm wrench, adjust the handbrake and check that it is properly adjusted. Once it is properly adjusted, reinsert the cover and close it with the appropriate fixing screws previously removed.
