Audi A3 - Video tutorial

Model: Audi A3 MK 3, 8V - Years 2012-2019
Part: Timing belt
Operation: Align and replace the timing belt of an Audi A3

In this video we can see an interesting timelapse of the timing and replacement of the timing belt of an Audi A3: at the beginning we find an explanatory drawing where, in addition to the path of the belt, all the tightening torques of the various components are indicated. Despite this, we believe that it is a job that is better entrusted to a good professional. However, if you think you are able to tackle it on your own, here we have all the tools to carry out the work at best: of course we will have to get the tools, for example on Amazon with the code B013UK0DSA at the price of 17.99 euros, free delivery for Prime customers. It is recommended to check compatibility with your own car.

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.
