    How many kms Rod? I have ever only adjusted once, regularly check and clean with compressed air, and never use the drive away feature. I'm at 216000km and still on original drum linings.

    I would recommend you do it annually. I do it as part of my annual service to keep issues at bay

    150k, but I think the issue was corrugations, dust and about 500m of water crossings in 4 days.

    Now that I have an onboard air compressor and just completed an installation of the rear brakes I know exactly what I can do myself although I do have the car serviced every second time by my indie so I would hope they do that stuff as well.
