Rear calipers not auto-adjusting

Having issues with rear calipers. New rear pads were fitted (not by me!) & handbrake was ineffective, even with the cable taken all the way in. Took the whole lot off again, slackened the cable, refitted & all worked nicely, but handbrake is quite quickly feeling like it needs adjusting again (few hundred miles). Possibly the auto adjust is worn? It's a hell of a mechanism looking at the diagram!

Cheers,

let h/brake adjustment off full,take out pads,turn piston anticlockwise,retry and adjust more until drags a wee bit re-ajust h/brake till 3-4 clicks :o[smash.gif]
