How to Repair the Tailgate on the Ford Fiesta MK5

Model: Ford Fiesta Fiesta 5, MK 5, MK V - Years 2002-2008
Part: Checks and maintenance

In this video, see how to repair the tailgate on the Ford Fiesta MK5: to open the motor, use a utility knife, sliding the blade several times between the two housings; inside, you will find the motor, which is only resting. The brush block disassembles easily: the issue with these actuators is that the little grease applied during assembly deposits between the brushes and the rotor, so simply clean the rotor and everything will work as before. You can see everything clearly in the video, which shows the various components and how to reassemble the part before refitting it to the vehicle.

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.
