Citroen C3 - Video tutorial

Model: Citroen C3 FN, FC - Years 2002-2009
Part: Engine oil
Operation: Change engine oil and Citroen C3 oil filter

In this video tutorial we will show you how to replace the engine oil and oil filter of the Citroen C3. First we open the bonnet and remove the engine cover: we open the oil cap so that it comes out faster. We lift the car and go to remove the plastic base with a screwdriver: at this point we can unscrew the oil drain plug with a jack wrench and 21 mm socket. Drain well and screw the cap back on. To disassemble the filter we remove the suction sleeve and remove it with a socket wrench. Let's replace the new filter and pour in the new oil!

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.
