Audi A4 - Video tutorial

Model: Audi A4 B5 - Years 1994-2000
Part: Engine oil
Operation: Engine oil and oil filter replacement

Raise the car on a lift and inspect the car to check for any anomalies: oil leaks, rust, broken rubber, boots or pipes, as well as wear on the brakes and tires. Place a tray of suitable capacity (about 5 liters) under the oil pan, unscrew the cap (located on the rear left corner) to allow the exhausted oil to drain; at the same time unscrew, with the aid of a metal clamp wrench, the oil filter (located on the side of the oil pan). Once the drain is complete, screw the cap (replacing the copper washer if necessary) and apply the new filter after having sprinkled the gasket with oil (it is sufficient to tighten it manually). Finally, fill the engine with new oil according to SAE specifications and the quantities indicated in the use and maintenance manual.

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.
