E46 eBrake Adjustment
My eBrake is not doing diddly right now, so I need to adjust it at the wheels.
I looked it up online and it seems you adjust it be removing one of the wheel bolts. That is great, except I installed studs. Is there another way to get to the adjuster, or do I have to pull one of the studs? Thanks.

There are two adjustments. If you can't get it tight at the ebrake handle, you have to go through the hub hole, which 100% means pulling a stud.

I have cranked the handle end adjustment a good bit.
OK, it looks like pulling a stud. Not a huge deal.
