Fiat 500 - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat 500 312 - Years 2007-2021
Part: Gear oil
Operation: Dualogic Fat 500 automatic transmission oil replacement

Locate the automatic transmission oil tank which is located under an aluminum heat shield. From above it is possible to unscrew the oil filling cap, from which however it is not possible to suck up the used oil because it is not possible to insert a rubber tube of the appropriate size due to the presence of a curve on the pipe of the tank immediately under the cap. Place the machine on the bridge and unscrew the fixing screws of the aluminum casing, Move the casing and locate the metal tube for the oil connection. Loosen the pipe fitting and, before disassembling it, place a tray underneath to recover the used oil. After having checked on the visual level of the tank that almost all the oil has been extracted, the tube fitting can be screwed back on and the aluminum casing can be reassembled. Be careful to use gearbox oil with the correct specifications for the type of gearbox and, using a tube and funnel, top up the new oil.

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.
