you want to do it yourself?

It's not that difficult Lorry, but caution is a must if you are unsure of the procedure, have a you a good knowledge? safety is a must especially when the car is either on a ramp / Jack, if you come back on when you have read the advice then it will be up to the site to help you how to go about it.

you really need a wind back tool it can be done without but a bit fiddly if you have never done it before....if you dont understand the concept of the way rear calipers work leave well alone, they are not the same as front.

once pads are replaced it should make a difference to the handbrake..

Chas is correct. Push and turn .. three holes/prongs to engage with if I remember right.
Do pads first .. drive around the block .. check handbrake after that.
