How do you adjust the parking brake on a Volvo 850?

To adjust the parking brake on a Volvo 850, follow these steps:

  1. Park your car on a level surface and apply the parking brake.

  2. Locate the parking brake adjustment nut. On the Volvo 850, it is located under the car, near the rear wheels.

  3. Loosen the lock nut on the parking brake adjustment nut.

  4. Turn the parking brake adjustment nut clockwise to tighten it. This will increase the tension on the parking brake cable and make it more effective.

  5. Test the parking brake by releasing it and then applying it again. The parking brake should hold the car in place without slipping.

  6. If necessary, repeat steps 4 and 5 until the parking brake is properly adjusted.

  7. Tighten the lock nut to hold the parking brake adjustment in place.

Remember that your parking brake should be able to hold your vehicle still on a steep hill. Adjust it if necessary to ensure it is functioning correctly.
