Citroen C4 - Video tutorial

Model: Citroen C4 MK 1 - Years 2004-2010
Part: Engine head
Operation: Preparation and reassembly of the gasket and cylinder head

Before reassembling the cylinder head, check, with the help of a thickness gauge and a bar, that the two surfaces (that of the cylinder head and of the cylinder block where the pistons are) are perfectly flat. Screw the two plates to lock the cylinders. Then, with the die, go over the seat of the screws and clean it with compressed air from any debris. Insert the bushings, rotate the crankshaft to bring the cylinders to par and remove the plates. Place the gasket and then the cylinder head. Spread some thread locking paste on each screw and tighten them according to the manufacturer's specifications. Car Model: Citroen C4 16V

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.
