Fiat Palio - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat Palio MK 1 - Years 1996-2007
Part: Engine oil
Operation: How to change the engine oil and the oil filter of the Fiat Palio 1.4 Fire

Today we are going to replace the engine oil and the oil filter, carrying out the routine maintenance coupon, of the Fiat Palio, following the instructions below. First of all, lift the car and start unscrewing the oil vent bolt that we find on the sump, using a 12 mm socket wrench, making it drain in a container for about ten minutes; then let's unscrew and replace the oil filter cartridge, screwing it in by hand and tightening it gently. Finally, unscrew the filler cap and top up with the new engine 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.
