Citroen C3 - Video tutorial

Model: Citroen C3 FN, FC - Years 2002-2009
Part: Steering rods
Operation: How do you replace the steering rods on the Citroà «n C3?

In order to replace the Citroà «n C3 steering rods, the car must be lifted by means of a bridge or jack and then removed the wheel corresponding to the rod to be replaced. This will make it possible to loosen the two bolts that secure the tie rod to the inside and rear of the brake disc. After removing the old tie rod, it is advisable to lubricate both areas where its fixing pins were. At this point it will be possible to insert the new tie rod and fix it with the appropriate pins, installing the corresponding wheel as well.

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.
