Citroen C3 - Video tutorial

Model: Citroen C3 FN, FC - Years 2002-2009
Part: Brake pads
Operation: How to replace the front disc brake pads on a Citroen C3

Let's see how to replace the front disc brake pads on a Citroen C3. First of all: we lift the car on a column tip (jack) to the desired height, immediately after we go to remove the rim (with a telescopic wrench or compressed air drill) with the respective pins. We unscrew the locking pin of the brake caliper, remove the same from the wheel support. Remove the pads from the wheel hub caliper with a screwdriver; we mount the new pads on the caliper, mount the brake caliper with the holder on the brake disc. We tighten all the pins and mount the wheel.

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.
