Alfa Romeo 159 - Video tutorial

Model: Alfa Romeo 159 MK 1 - Years 2005-2011
Part: Oil filter
Operation: How to change the oil and the related filter of the Alfa 159.

Performing the replacement of the engine oil and the corresponding oil filter of the Alfa Romeo 159 is a very simple operation that can be carried out independently. Let's begin the procedure by opening the engine hood and lifting the car with the help of a jack and stands. We remove the left wheel, first removing the bolts and then the wheel. Now we can remove the oil pan located underneath the car. Once the cap has been removed, place a basin and let the old oil drain out. When the oil has finished draining, proceed to remove the oil filter, as shown in the video. When you have removed the filter, install the new one and close everything up. Once the job is finished, close the hood.

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.
