Z Z4M-2006 Elite High Peak,Derbyshire. Sep 19, 2013 #2 Yep.. Preferably take the wheel off and you can adjust the rear shoes through one of the bolt holes.. IIRC you can see the adjuster wheel around "10 o clock" on the backplate..

Might be worth taking the Brake disc off just to check the shoes are still o.k. You will then be able to figure out how to adjust the adjuster better.
