    Default Parking brake adjustment

    When making the parking brake adjustment, is this made with parking brake engaged or disengaged? Manual does not say.
    This is a 2018 F3 Limited.

    The service manual on my RT-S says the parking brake must be released.

    otherwise be a vulgar brawl.

    The best parking brake adjustment tip I saw was in a Shawn Smoaks video. Brake off (not engaged) and the yoke that pulls on the lever at the caliper can be wiggled side-to-side. But just!
