Fiat 500 - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat 500 312 - Years 2007-2021
Part: Gear oil
Operation: When is the gearbox oil changed on the Fiat 500?

The gear oil change interval varies by car model; generally, for small-displacement cars, we will replace the gearbox oil every 4 years or 80,000 kilometers, as in the case of the Fiat 500. To replace the transmission oil we have to lift the car, in order to unscrew the drain bolt of the 'oil (which we find on the gearbox); then let's also remove the loading hole, which we find on the upper part of the gearbox. At this point we pour the new oil with a hose from the engine compartment, filling up to level (about 2 liters).

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.
