Citroen C3 - Video tutorial

Model: Citroen C3 FN, FC - Years 2002-2009
Part: Diesel filter
Operation: How to replace the diesel filter on Ciroen C3

Let's see how to replace the diesel filter on Ciroen C3. We open the car door and pull up the engine compartment opening lever located at the bottom left of the dashboard, lift up the front hood and put it in safety. We remove the aeration hose; with a socket wrench we unscrew the locking pins placed on the container (disconnect the cables and the various tubes from the filter) where the diesel oil filter is located. We extract the diesel filter holder and remove the worn filter (let's replace it with a new one). Finally we reassemble the fuel filter container (connect pipes and cables) and tighten the screws. We close the front hood at the end of the replacement.

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.
