Kia Sorento - Video tutorial

Model: Kia Sorento MK 1 - Years 2002-2009
Part: Engine
Operation: Intercooler replacement

This is a very complex operation that requires the following operations. It is necessary to remove the front plastic band, and the front bumper by removing all the fixing screws. Once this is done you will have access to the intercooler which is located under the radiator and behind the front protection bar. To remove it, unscrew the bolts that support it and disconnect the pipes that are connected to it. Once the replacement (or repair) has been carried out, proceed by repositioning it in its housing, fasten the screws and reconnect the pipes at the sides. Reassemble the car by inserting the bumper and front plastic 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.
