Hi there
I wonder if you can help. I have put new brake shoes in on my bmw e36 and set the the hand brake to four clicks but when I still park on a slight down hill the handbrake still does not hold. What can the problem be?

Try jacking up the rear wheels and see if you can spin them with the parking brake on. Your cable may be binding and not letting it move enough to apply the parking brake shoes.
