Chevrolet Matiz - Video tutorial

Model: Chevrolet Matiz MK 1 - Years 1998-2010
Part: Cabin air filter
Operation: Cabin air filter replacement

The passenger compartment air filter is located on the passenger side just behind the glovebox: in order to replace the filter it is therefore necessary to remove the glove compartment by first unscrewing the screws of the lower hinge and then the inner ones along the closing edge; once the glove box has been disassembled, it is possible to access the filter housing, remove the cover by releasing the plastic fixing tabs and extract it from its housing; make sure that there are no residues of dirt inside the filter housing and insert the new one and then reassemble the cap and the glove compartment.

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.
