Ford C Max - Video tutorial

Model: Ford C Max MK 1 - Years 2003-2010
Part: Shock absorbers
Operation: How to detach the front shock absorber of a Ford C Max

Detach the front shock absorber of a Ford C Max? Let's see how to do it. We lift the front of the car with a jack, we identify the pieces to be disassembled. Remove the wheel, unscrew the locking pins of the shock absorber to the wheel hub with a socket wrench (remove the brake circuit tubes with a screwdriver). We lift the front hood of the engine and unscrew the pins of the wiper blades, we disassemble the plastic cover that covers the upper part of the shock absorber. Unscrew the screws on the side of the shock absorber, remove it from its housing. We mount the new shock absorber to the spring with a special compression machine. Once everything is assembled, we move on to the assembly of the shock absorber on the car. We fit all the pieces into the engine compartment.

How to reset the on-board computer of the Peugeot 208?

Resetting the Peugeot 208's on-board computer, the system called SMEG, is very simple. We can do this in case the system shows signs of malfunction, freezes, or in any other case where a restart could solve the problem. To reboot, simply hold down the two keys located in the lower left corner of the computer at the same time. After a few seconds, the SMEG system display will switch off, the Peugeot logo will appear and the start-up procedure will start. We wait patiently for the restart to complete as it may take some time.
