    I warmly welcome!
    Gentlemen, where in the Mercedes W245 B-class parking brake cables converge, two from the wheels and one from the brake lever from the cab? I have already adjusted the distance between the jaws and the drums in both wheels, but there is still a long idle stroke on the lever. On the third clove almost nothing holds, I wanted to shorten it a little by adjusting. I will be grateful for help.

    The adjustment should be with the lever itself, usually it is.

    Unfortunately, there is no adjustment with the lever. Looking even at the rope itself (on the net), there is nothing to shoot there ;-)

    The adjustment is where the right and left wheels meet.

    Ociz, thanks a lot, I was looking for this. Or maybe you know where they meet? I am asking because the bottom of the car is full of covers, unscrewing them is not "nice". I would like to get to where it is needed.

    I haven't had Class B for a long time. In the class and Vaneo goes more or less as the rear wheels start, here probably the same.
    I like these covers there, because at least clean when you take them off.

    In one class (but I don't remember which one) the adjustment was under the lid in the floor and this lid under the rear seat.

    It would be too beautiful to be in a B-class ;-)

    For posterity, the W245 parking brake cable adjustment is on the rear beam, closer to the left wheel. Just remove the left wheel on the lift and there is very good access. Simple and pleasant adjustment ;-)
    Greetings.
