Alfa Romeo 159 - Video tutorial

Model: Alfa Romeo 159 MK 1 - Years 2005-2011
Part: Engine oil
Operation: How to change oil on Alfa Romeo 159

How to change the engine oil on an Alfa Romeo 159? Simple operation by following the right steps. Let's see: we lift the car on a column or jack bridge, after removing the plastic panel under the engine, we unscrew the pin of the oil pan with a socket wrench, let the liquid flow into a container for disposal and we screw the pin of the oil pan again. We bring the car to the ground and lift the bonnet, put it in safety with the rod (if present) and top up with the new liquid. We measure the oil level several times with the metal dipstick until the ideal measurement is reached.

Handbrake adjustment on Ford Ecosport

First remove the plastic profile at the base of the gear lever. To do this, slightly widen the side edges and carefully lift it to release it. There is no need to remove it completely, just move it forward to avoid bother. Now remove the plastic center console around the handbrake by first working from the rear to release it and lifting it until the brake lever passes. Also in this case it is not necessary to remove it completely but, paying attention to the connected cables, it can be stowed in front of the passenger seat. At this point we notice that at the base of the handbrake lever, on the front, we find a nut. By acting on it, with a 10 wrench, we can adjust the brake force, increasing it by turning the nut clockwise, or decreasing it by turning it counterclockwise. Once adjusted, the center console can be repositioned first, pressing lightly to engage it, and then the profile of the gearbox base.
