Handbrake Adjustment on Hyundai ix35

Model: Hyundai ix35 MK 1 - Years 2009-2015
Part: Parking brake

If the handbrake lever lifts significantly, that is, rises more than five or six clicks, you can adjust the activation cable so that it rises by three or four clicks; the adjustment is made from inside the cabin: you must remove the rear cover of the centre tunnel, behind the armrest, then remove a protective bracket to access the cable adjustment nut; gradually tighten the nut while checking the travel of the handbrake lever until the adjustment is complete.
