Citroen Xsara - Video tutorial

Model: Citroen Xsara MK 1 - Years 1997-2006
Part: Cabin air filter
Operation: How to change the cabin filter on a Citroen Xara Picasso.

In the Citroen Xara, the pollen filter is located in the engine compartment, so you will need to open it and you will see it at the top left of the engine compartment (looking at the car from the front, so in front of the passenger), just below the windshield. You will need to remove three large plastic butterfly nuts that close the flange of the pollen filter cover. Now it's easy to remove the cover. Right behind it, we find the filter, which we can remove. We clean the space where the old filter was, removing dust and residue. If we decide to use a white filter, it will only block dust, while black ones with activated carbon will also block gases. In any case, when we install the new filter, the arrows must always point downwards. We close the cover with its butterfly screws and also the hood. The operation is complete.

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.
