Cadillac Elr - Video tutorial

Model: Cadillac Elr MK 1 - Years 2014-2016
Part: Engine oil
Operation: How to change the oil and oil filter on a Cadillac Elr

To replace the oil and the oil filter of the Cadillac Elr, we start by going under the car, with a special key we unscrew the oil filter and let it drain into a container, drain the oil from the filter we remove and clean its seat; now we take the new oil filter, screw it with the special key; having screwed the filter, unscrew the oil drain plug with a 14 socket wrench and let the oil drain into a container; once the oil has drained, clean the seat of the cap and screw it back on with the 14 socket wrench; now let's go to the engine, unscrew the oil filler cap, pour the liters indicated by the manufacturer and when we are approximately at the indicated liters, check the level with the dipstick (the level must be checked the second time you remove the dipstick) and if the level is on the "max" notch the level is fine, otherwise top up.

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.
