Chrysler Pt Cruiser - Video tutorial

Model: Chrysler Pt Cruiser MK 1 - Years 2000-2010
Part: Shock absorbers
Operation: Replacement of front shock absorbers

Place the car on a lift but before lifting it, release the domes from the control unit. Then remove the front wheels, the cable guides of the brake pipes and the bolts fixing the shock absorber to the hub support. Then remove the nut fixing the shock absorber rod to the bodywork dome. Then use the special clamps to compact the spring and be able to disassemble the support to be applied to the new shock absorber (consider replacing the support if necessary). Once the assembly of the new shock absorber with spring and support has been completed, install it in the car by proceeding in reverse order.

Disassembly of the gear knob on the Lancia Ypsilon 2

Today we will see, in this video tutorial, how to remove and replace the gear knob on the second series Lancia Ypsilon, but also on the Lancia Musa, in simple and quick steps. We get inside the car and start by removing the old gear knob; to do this, just unscrew it anticlockwise, as shown in the video. At this point we also remove the gearshift gaiter, in order to replace, if necessary, it too; we just have to fix the new headset and insert the new gear knob, screwing it correctly and without creating play on the gear lever!
