No there's a grommet in the rear disc, you have to get it to the top and adjust the knurled wheel inside. It adjusts up and down, from memory, down tensions the e brake...adjust it so the disc stops moving, then take it back until the disc just about spins freely.........one side done! If you're not confident, please get your dealer to do it!
Here's the section from the manual....
