Fiat 500 - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat 500 - Years 2007-2022
Part: Air filter
Operation: How to replace the air filter in a Fiat 500 ABARTH (312)

In this video tutorial, we can see how to replace the air filter in a Fiat 500 ABARTH (312), following some simple steps: the first thing to do is to purchase a new and high-quality air filter from an authorized dealer. The next step is to get inside the car, turn off the engine, and engage the handbrake. Lift the hood and secure it with a proper rod; once the air filter box is located, we need to unscrew the fastening elements of the cover, using an 8mm socket wrench. Remove the cover and extract the old filter element; cover the parts of the air duct with a cloth and clean both the cover and the filter housing (as shown in the video); remove the cloth and place the new filter element in position, reposition the cover, and tighten the screws on the air filter cover.

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.
