Part: Diesel filter
Operation: How do you replace the diesel filter on the Citroën C3 1.4 HDi?

In order to replace the diesel filter of the Citroën C3 you have to go and open the bonnet so that you can detach the plastic cover of the upper part of the engine compartment. Under it, there will be the diesel filter, which must be removed by first disconnecting its electrical connector. After the connector has been disconnected, it will also be necessary to remove the pipes connected to the filter by levering on the tabs: as soon as they have been removed, it will be possible to extract the filter from its housing and replace it with a new spare part. After the replacement, it can be reconnected to the pipes and the connector.

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.
