Hi all. This is my first post here and I am hoping someone here has the answer. I just replaced the rear rotors and pads on my 2003 Impala. The brakes have improved tremendously but now the parking brake won't hold the car on an incline.

Is there an automatic adjuster on these cars or do I have to dig in to the rotors again and adjust the star adjuster?

Thanks in advance.

I was thinking the same thing that it should self-adjust. All I did was change the pads and rotors. The parking brake worked great with the old rotors and the shoes looked almost new. I've tried backwards and forward and stepping on the pedal but so far, no luck.
