On my SD, the parking brake tightens
"semi-automatically", not so with my 240D (W115) or my
friends 240D (W123)...how do we tighten the cable?
The parking brakes on all the cars's I've ever owned required adjustment
of the star adjusters on the rear wheels. That includes the 115, 123,
126, 124, 201s, etc. The adjuster at the cable junction is ONLY used to
set the cable length - not to adjust the pad position or pressure.
