Ford Transit - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Transit MK 7 - Years 2006-2014
Part: Brake discs
Operation: How to change discs and pads on a Ford Transit

To remove the discs and pads of a Ford Transit you first need a socket wrench of 21. We unscrew the wheel in question then lift the vehicle (don't trust our jack too much). we remove the screws and also the caliper. We also remove the caliper holder which is held by two bolts. We remove the disc stop, we will help each other with a hammer. With a 36 bush we remove the central bolt of the disc. We push the male in and through the holes indicated in the video we reach 5 45 torx bolts, which we will unscrew to extract the entire block from the spindle. Another 5 bolts must be unscrewed to remove the brake disc. Our youtuber removes the disc very firmly from the block. Now you just have to repeat on the other wheel and then reassemble everything backwards.

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.
