This video demonstrates how to adjust the handbrake on the Renault Clio 2. You will need a ramp or some jacks, and a socket wrench with 10 mm and 13 mm adapters. First, lift the car, then position yourself underneath at the door closure height.

Unscrew the four support screws of the exhaust heat shield using the 10 mm socket. Remove the heat shield, then use the 13 mm socket to adjust the nut that regulates the handbrake cable.

Once adjusted, refit the heat shield by screwing back the four 10 mm screws, and the job is complete.
