Bit of a long shot but someone may no on here...

The girlfriends parents both have X-trails, her mothers goes in for its MOT on friday and both handbrakes fully up dont stop the car from moving (they have to be in gear to stop).

Does anyone no where to adjust the rear handbrake cable to get the handbrake working properly?

Both the cars have rear disks!

All help would be great!

Thanks

whip the rear wheels off, then check if handbrake is on the calipers if not whip the discs off and adjust under there
