Hyundai Sonica - Video tutorial

Model: Hyundai Sonica - Years 1998-2005
Part: Engine oil
Operation: How to change the engine oil in a short time

To change the engine oil yourself, it is necessary to lift the car with the crik and secure it with pedestals so that you can work under it safely. To collect the old oil we will use a low but large container, place it in correspondence with the oil pan, unscrew the cap and let it drain completely. We then move on to unscrew the oil filter which is positioned behind the passenger side wheel, replace it with the new one and when the oil has finished coming out we carefully re-screw the cap under the sump. At this point we can top up the new oil, pour a quantity half a liter lower than the maximum indicated in the use and maintenance manual and begin to measure the oil level with the dipstick, adding it very gradually until reaching a level that goes between the minimum and the maximum, remember to wait the time necessary to let the oil go down well before measuring the level.

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.
