Citroen C3 - Video tutorial

Model: Citroen C3 FN, FC - Years 2002-2009
Part: Glow plugs
Operation: Citroen C3 1.4 HDi glow plug replacement

In today's video tutorial we will see how to remove and replace the engine glow plugs on a Citroen C3 1.4 HDi, but also on all the other models of the PSA group with the same engine. First we open the engine hood of our car and we go to remove the screws of the air filter box cover; then remove the filter and unscrew the screws of the airbox, removing it too. At this point we disconnect the intake manifold and remove all the intake manifolds, as shown in the video. We just have to unscrew the glow plugs, using a socket wrench with extension, and replace them with new ones!

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.
