Hi just ought my O3 g35 mt6 on friday , i love but i noticed a few things.

1- ebrake has to be pulled waaaaaaay up, they changed the pads but i think they forgot to adjust it, do you have to take the brakes off to adjust? cause thats what the service guy thought(he wasn't sure)

2- when the window on the driver door is all the way down, you can hear it bounce around back and frouth like its loose a little. 3- Driver door is a little sloppy when closing.... i dont really know how to explain except by saying that it sounds like its shakes a little when you close it ..just doesn't sound solid....is i=that just that a striker adjustment?

thanks in advance for any help guys.

The E brake can probably be adjusted under the car, its probably the same setup as the Q45 and Z32, the drums..... Anyway, theres adjusters under the car... its all in the FSM, ill check later... You wont have to take the brakes off.

I would guess for your other problem the regulator is loose or something... Best thing to do is take the door panel off and see what happens.

you can adjust the ebrake from in the car...there is a bolt under the center console. also with the window...pull off the door panel and make sure all the gold 10mm bolts are tightened down...

Remove the rear wheels, there's an access plug on the outside of the drum for the star adjuster of the rear drum brakes inside the disc hat. If you aren't especially handy, or don't have drum brake experience, this is a job that is cheap to pay for.

6 or 7 clicks back off from locked, if I recall correctly.

Play with the handbrake and you can tell.
