Citroen C3 - Video tutorial

Model: Citroen C3 FN, FC - Years 2002-2009
Part: Suspensions
Operation: Replace the rear suspension of the Citroen C3 1

Let's see in this guide how to remove and replace the shock absorbers or the rear suspensions of the Citroen C3 first series. First of all we lift the car and remove the rear wheel; then we unclip all the plastic clips to remove the wheel arch, as shown in the video. At this point we unscrew the screws of the suspension, using a socket wrench, to release it and remove it from its seat; then we replace the suspension with the new one, fixing it on the swinging arm and tightening to 93 Nm of force. Follow the video to the end for reassembly!

How do you adjust the clutch cable on the Kia Picanto?

To be able to adjust the clutch cable of the Kia Picanto you need to open the hood so that you have access to the components inside the engine compartment: in order to reach the cable you will need to remove some components on the right side, such as the battery and the air filter. Below them you will find the clutch cable, which will have to be adjusted by screwing or loosening the bolt placed at the end of the cable. This will make the pedal harder or softer; after the adjustment, it will be possible to assemble all the components by closing the hood.
