Citroen C3 - Video tutorial

Model: Citroen C3 FN, FC - Years 2002-2009
Part: Brake pads
Operation: How to replace front brake pads on Citroen C3

Let's see in this video tutorial how to replace the brake pads on a first generation Citroen C3, model produced from 2002 to 2009. First we have to lift the car and remove the front wheel, now we take a flat screwdriver and insert it into the slot on the brake caliper, then we start to pry to push in the brake piston. Once this is done we can unscrew the lower screw of the brake caliper with a 13mm wrench and then lift it, now we can remove the old pads, clean their housing and insert new pads, then follow the reverse procedure to reassemble everything.

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.
