Part: Timing belt
Operation: How do you replace the timing belt on the Citroà «n C-Elysà © e?

To be able to replace the timing belt of the Citroà «n C-Elysà © e you have to go and disconnect the fuel lines and the battery. Subsequently, it will be necessary to unscrew some 30 torx screws to remove the cover from the side of the engine. Then you have to remove the rivets that secure the wheel arch and go and disconnect the hose connected to the radiator, from the bottom of the car. At this point it will be necessary to lock the pulleys and loosen the central pin of the tensioner roller, so as to be able to extract the old timing belt. When this has been removed, it will be possible to fit a new spare part and all the other previously removed parts.

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.
