Fiat 500 - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat 500 312 - Years 2007-2021
Part: Gear oil
Operation: How and when to change the gearbox oil on Fiat 500 Abarth 1.4

In today's video we will see the main steps that will allow us to replace the gearbox oil on a Fiat 500 Abarth 1.4 Petrol; gearbox oil generally needs to be replaced every 4 years or 80,000 kilometers. First, let's get the new gear oil, with the 75w80 gradation; then we lift the car and go to locate the bolt of the gearbox oil drainage hole, which we find on the transmission box: also remove the filler cap, using a hexagonal wrench. After having drained all the oil in a container, we can add the new gearbox oil, which we will insert until it comes out of the filling hole!

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.
