Fiat 500 - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat 500 312 - Years 2007-2023
Part: Brake pads
Operation: Remove rear brake pads on Fiat 500

Are the rear brake pads of a Fiat 500 damaged and therefore need to be changed? Let's see how they remove the brake caliper from above. We lift the car with a column bridge, immediately after we go to remove the rear rim (with a telescopic wrench) with the respective pins. We unscrew the pin of the brake caliper, remove the same from above the disc. We remove the pads from the brake caliper. We mount the new pads on the brake caliper. We mount the brake caliper with the holder on the brake disc. We test the brakes of the Fiat 500 after topping up the oil if it is lost in the disassembly.

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.
