Could very well be. My car is getting pretty old now. 11 years old, 140k miles. Could be that I need new brakes, could be stretched cables. I know the front pads have been replaced on it at some point, but I'm not sure about the rears. Anyway, can somebody tell me how to adjust the brakes themselves rather than the cable? I hate having to pull my lever up through my moonroof just to set the brake lol.
