How to adjust brakes on Geely Mk

Model: Geely Mk MK 1 - Years 2006-2023
Part: Checks and maintenance

We adjust the brakes of our Geely Mk. First we remove the rear wheels, lifting the car off the ground. Our Geely has drum brakes, so the adjustment is purely mechanical. We remove the safety, release the nut. Now let's start taking out the drum. In some cars the screw has to be removed first. With a hammer, strike the drum if necessary. The adjustment is made by this spring: While we hold it, with another screwdriver we will apply pressure and adjust the pressure through the eye that is framed in the video. With the left screwdriver we will open or close the pressure slowly. When it's well adjusted we need to set and adjust the handbrake. When you're done adjusting and you've got the drum in place, place the nut and leave room to store the safety. Don't forget to double the safety. Replace the lid and tap gently to secure. We can put the tire back on. Not all cars have the same adjustment system.

Replacing the Rear Window Regulator on a Grande Punto

Replace the window regulator on a Fiat Grande Punto? Remove the door panel to access the window regulator motor. Use a lever to remove the manual window crank, then, with a screwdriver, unscrew the securing screws on the plastic panel. Once all screws are removed, use the lever to detach all the plastic clips that secure the door. Pull off the door panel by hand. Remove the access cover to the door and take out the window regulator motor and the rail with the glass. Pull out all the parts from inside the door and replace them with new ones.
