Same as before. Press the button at the front, and pull the lever. To release, do it in reverse.

on mine (02) there is a rubber grommet on the back of the disc.take out the grommet and look inside there is a small adjuster wheel that moves with use of a screwdriver.
hope that helps

same on my MY97, so suspect it's the same all the way thro!

just jack up the back & nipp then up till they are rubbing, then back them off a bit. check the lever inside. it if moves too much you'll have to adjust it at the lever end - which I think is under the centre console !
