Citroen C3 - Video tutorial

Model: Citroen C3 FN, FC - Years 2002-2009
Part: Air filter
Operation: How to replace the air filter on a Citroen C3 1.1

Let's see through this short video tutorial how to replace the air filter on a Citroen C3 1.1 of the first generation, produced from 2002 to 2009. Let's start immediately by opening the hood of the car, and unscrew the plastic screw on the base of the airbox of a quarter turn and loosen its support ring. Now we remove the air inlet tube and with a flat screwdriver we detach the gas recovery tube, then we remove the filter box. Once this is done, we open the box by unscrewing its five screws with a small Phillips screwdriver, then we proceed to replace the old filter with a new one. To reassemble everything we just have to follow the whole procedure in reverse.

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.
