Fiat 500 - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat 500 312 - Years 2007-2022
Part: Gear oil
Operation: How to change the gearbox oil on the Fiat 500 Abarth?

To be able to change the gearbox oil of the Fiat 500 Abarth you have to go and lift the car with a jack, so that the left front wheel can be removed by unscrewing the bolts that secure it. Once the wheel has been removed, it will be necessary to loosen the screws that fix the bracket placed in correspondence with its rear part; furthermore, it will be necessary to unscrew the screws that fix the plate to the lower part of the motor. Then you can unscrew the gearbox oil drain plug, letting it all come out inside a suitably positioned container; then you can insert the new oil from the special top-up 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.
