Chevrolet City Express - Video tutorial

Model: Chevrolet City Express MK 1 - Years 2015-2018
Part: Checks and maintenance
Operation: How to convert a Chevrolet City Express into a camper

As shown in the video, first you will need to 'strip' the interior of the van, repaint it (optional), and buy some foam rubber to insulate the floor and the sides of the van. To cut the foam rubber according to the measurements of the van, use cardboard as a template. Place plywood on the floor and then glue the actual flooring on top. Do the same on the walls; in this case, since they are curved, it is better to cut the foam rubber into three parts, as well as the plywood and wood. Then you will need to work on the interior as shown in the video. One thing not to forget is to make an opening on the top of the van to insert a fan and install a solar panel to have the necessary energy to operate the devices inside the van.

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.
