Secret Compartment of the Ford Ka MK2

Model: Ford Ka MK 2 - Years 2008-2016
Part: Body

The Ford Ka MK2 and the Fiat 500 shared the same platform, and although many buyers of the two cars at the time were unaware, they shared some features. One of these was a small secret compartment, where you could store small items or valuables, completely secure. If not pointed out by the dealer at the time of collection, most users drove the vehicle for years without realising this compartment existed. It is located under the driver's seat (in this video, it is the passenger side because it is a right-hand drive, but in left-hand drives, it is the driver's side). You need to lift the front part of the seat and then pull it forward. At this point, the seat will open like a lid, revealing a small compartment very handy for storing valuables.

How to Check the Oil Level on a Jeep Renegade?

To check the oil level on a Jeep Renegade, you need to open the bonnet to access the components inside the engine bay: on the lower left side of the engine block, you will find the dipstick for checking the level. This should be pulled out and thoroughly cleaned with a cloth: once cleaned, reinsert it back into its tube and pull it out immediately after. This way, you can check that the oil mark is between the minimum and maximum levels; finally, you can place the dipstick back in its tube.
