Audi A2 - Video tutorial

Model: Audi A2 MK 1 - Years 1999-2005
Part: Thermostat
Operation: Thermostat replacement on Audi A2

Is the thermostat damaged? Let's replace it on the Audi A2. Unscrew the pins of the clamp of the thermostat sleeve and (we use a socket wrench with relative bushes) remove the sealing cap of the housing and extract the refrigerant thermostat. We clean the housing where the thermostat goes well. We insert the new piece and close with the cap of the sleeve. We tighten the pins well and we're done. Make sure that you have correctly inserted and mounted the valve in the appropriate housing. We top up the coolant reservoir once the thermostat has been assembled.

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.
