Dodge Caliber - Video tutorial

Model: Dodge Caliber MK 1 - Years 2006-2012
Part: Timing belt
Operation: Noise problem of timing chain

Having a car with chain distribution certainly has the advantage of not having to periodically replace the classic toothed belt (replacement expected approximately every 100,000 km or five years) but nevertheless requires some care in ordinary maintenance, i.e. in replacement. but above all in the choice of engine oil, since the chain works in an oil bath; an oil of excellent quality and a regular replacement (perhaps even anticipating the expected mileage) will protect the chain from wear; however, there is the possibility that the chain can lengthen to such an extent that not even the tensioner can compensate for this lengthening and consequently generate noise.

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.
