How to replace the gearshift gaiter on your Chevrolet Matiz? Let's see how to do it in this video: using a plastic lever, disconnect the covering around the leather cap placed on the central tunnel (disconnect any power supply terminals), detach it by removing it from the plastic. To carry out the assembly: mount the new leather cap on the frame where the clips are present, then, insert it into the rod on the central tunnel, tighten the plastic covering the central tunnel on it. Finally we test the correct assembly of the pieces with the movement of the rod on the central tunnel.

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.
