Default 2004 e60 530d hand brake adjustment

hi,

how do you guys adjust your handbrake ?

on mine if I tighten the rear discs screws too much it is very stiff and the pads are sticking . if I leave it reasonable then you have the pull the hand brake way way up before it engages

bmw handbrake system is crap.

thanks
