when my civic CX (drum brakes) did that, i just adjusted the star wheel
on the side that was slack, until it wasnt slack no mo. adjust...
adjust... slip the drum on, try the p-brake again. lather, rinse, repeat.

can the rear disc brakes be adjusted by hand like that? or no? for all i
know, the adjuster on the passenger side rear of my car still doesnt
work, but i did clean it up w/brake cleaner, and adjusted by hand.
hopefully itll work now.
