Hyundai Kona - Video tutorial

Model: Hyundai Kona MK 1 - Years 2017-2023
Part: Checks and maintenance
Operation: Cleaning and lubricating the brakes on a Hyundai Kona EV.

In this video we see how to do maintenance on the brakes of a Hyundai Kona EV: we start by removing the wheel, then we will remove the caliper, unscrewing the two bolts that hold it in place; we will put it in a place where the flexible hoses do not suffer; then we remove the two metal clips and finally the worn pads and the two metal supports, which we will put back in place after cleaning with an abrasive disc, but not before cleaning the entire caliper and base with the same system. A bit of copper grease is always recommended, even on the pads (which are not replaced here but only cleaned). We reposition the metal clips and then the calipers which we will tighten with their bolts. We can put the wheel back in place and repeat everything on the other side.

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.
