Hyundai Coupe - Video tutorial

Model: Hyundai Coupe GK - Years 2001-2009
Part: Brake discs
Operation: Replacement discs and front pads

If the thickness of the brake discs has reduced and the surface has become very irregular, it is certainly advisable to replace them, obviously also changing the pads; therefore lift the car, remove the front wheel and the brake caliper from its support, remove the old pads and also remove the caliper support; therefore unscrew the fixing screw of the disc on the hub, brush the seat and apply some grease before installing the new disc which must be cleaned from the protective oil with a special cleaner; at this point reassemble the caliper support, insert the new pads and then the caliper.

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.
