Hyundai Getz - Video tutorial

Model: Hyundai Getz MK 1 - Years 2002-2011
Part: Brake pads
Operation: How do i replace the front brake pads of the Hyundai Getz?

In order to replace the front brake pads of the Hyundai Getz you have to go and lift the car, so that you can go and loosen the screws that fix the corresponding wheel. The latter will now have to be removed from its hub, so that you can have access to the components in its rear part: here you will have to unscrew the bolts that secure the brake caliper and remove the pads positioned inside it. After the old pads have been removed, it will be possible to insert the new ones by mounting the caliper and the corresponding wheel again.

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.
