Citroen Ds5 - Video tutorial

Model: Citroen Ds5 MK 1 - Years 2011-2019
Part: Gear Shift Knob
Operation: How to replace the automatic gear knob of the Citroen DS5.

Below we will see the procedure for disassembling and replacing the knob and gearshift boot of the Citroen DS5 automatic transmission. First, we get inside the cabin and start pulling the automatic transmission knob upwards with force, in order to detach it from the lever along with the gearshift boot. Then, we separate the knob from the boot, as shown in the video. At this point, we proceed with the new installation of the automatic transmission knob, fixing it onto the boot and remounting everything onto the automatic transmission lever, applying the reverse procedure for reassembly!

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.
