Citroen C3 - Video tutorial

Model: Citroen C3 SC - Years 2009-2016
Part: Gearshift gaiter
Operation: How to replace the headset and gear knob on a Citroen C3

Today we are going to see how to replace the shift knob and gaiter in our Citroen C3. First we are going to remove the cap that covers the gear knob, just pull the sides inwards so as to unlock them and then unhook the upper part of the cap so as to have the attachment of the knob free and so we can work on it. Now let's move on to extracting the knob, simply remove the hook at the end and with a slight pressure remove the knob and then the cap. At this point we can first insert the cap and hook it and then the new knob, hook it well using the catch.

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.
