QUOTE(echho @ May 8 2025, 12:19 AM) So real fix is just adjust or tighten the cable and max cost rm50? Any issue if don't adjust even when it slowly rises to level 5? Car will slip when parked on hill slope? tightening handbrake cable & changing ac filter were just small matters. ur rm80 labour mainly for atf oil change & services brakes

QUOTE(echho @ May 8 2025, 12:10 AM) Then he said gets higher because atf not enough already. he must have confused it with electronic parking brake where it shares the same hydraulic system as transmission. epb might not work properly when atf is low

QUOTE(Kasawari 2 @ May 8 2025, 11:41 PM) Wrong. When rear brake shoes worn out and becomes thinner, then yiu adjust cable to tighten it so that to bring the pads closer to original position. whatever you say doc
