Default Re: How do you tighten the parking brake?

I'm sorry, I wasn't very clear. I was referring to rear disks. The parking brake consists of a drum and shoes contained within the rear disk. In effect the rear brake is disk and the parking brake is a drum. Disks are by their nature self adjusting, drums are not. I have only done one brake job on the PT and didn't notice the adjusting hole so I suspect it is on the rear, on the backing plate; not on the disk itself like the Lexus.... I believe the cables are self adjusting.
