Operation: How to replace the wheel of your car

Replacing the wheel of your car is a basic operation that anyone who has a license and owns a car should be able to do, especially if you are away from home, because everyone can get a puncture. The guide below shows practical advice on how to proceed. Of fundamental importance is the aspect concerning road safety. For this reason it is necessary, in the event of a puncture, to turn on the four arrows and pull over to a service stand as soon as possible. Before replacing the wheel it will be necessary to insert the reflector triangle in such a way that the car is clearly visible at a distance of at least 150 meters and near any curves. Before lifting the car with the crik it is advisable to loosen the bolts a little or unscrew them completely using the lever wrench. After removing the four bolts and lifting the car, you can then proceed to extract the punctured wheel.

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.
