Yaris rear brake adjustment emergency parking star wheel back backing handle clicks

3 clicks is too tight...not sure which Toyota manual or exact #, but 7 clicks to a firm set seems about right. I think the brakes are supposed to self-set on backing up, but not sure they do it well, or need high braking, and/or some of us just never need to back up and brake w/ any authority. My new condition 135k mile 2007 did not have new pads, and had the most clicks I've ever seen on a car. Mechanic took in one side at inspection wheel pull, and handle was still too high until I really rolled that star wheel on the other side.
