Does a Pug 106 Look 2 (98) automatic rear brake ( Bendix ) adjuster also deal with hand brake cable length, I get the impression it does not as they refer to hand brake cable adjustment ever 12K miles. If so is it the rear or front heat shield that has to come off. Thanks Peter

you dont need to remove the heatsheild,just bend down the heatsheild at the back righthand cornerjust before the exhaust bends at an angle,if you use a ratchet with extension,universal joint & a deep 13mm socket you can get into it,a torch also helps.remember to bend it back up when finished.

Well did the job today and sure enough the centre section heat sheild has to come down and the adjustment was easy. Sorry Wheeler. Regards Peter
