Lancia Ypsilon - Video tutorial

Model: Lancia Ypsilon Y1, 840, MK 1, Ypsilon 1 - Years 1996-2003
Part: Engine oil
Operation: How to replace engine oil and oil filter on a Lancia Y

Today I will show you how to change the oil and the engine filter on our Lancia Ypsilon, it is not a very complex operation, you just need to be careful and we will do it without the need for a specialist. First we disassemble the oil fill cap (so as not to create a closed chamber when we go to disassemble the oil drain cap), now let's move on to the disassembly of the oil drain cap (we put a basin for the collection oil under our Lancia Ypsilon), in the meantime we remove the oil filter with the help of a ratchet wrench and replace it with the new one. After having ascertained all the outflow of the old oil, we can mount the evacuation cap and proceed with topping up the new oil.

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.
