Citroen C3 - Video tutorial

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

Before we begin, we will have to open the front hood of our Citroen C3. So let's start by disengaging and removing the top engine cover. After that, we will have to go and remove the air filter sleeves, simply by unhooking the fixing clamps, and then remove the upper battery cover. By doing so, we will have reached the diesel filter. We then proceed by disconnecting the relative sleeves and the electric plug. At this point, we will have to unhook the clip that fixes the diesel filter, and then remove the filter itself, and we will have finished the disassembly. To fit the new filter, all we have to do is follow these steps in reverse, and we will have completed 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.
