Mahindra Xuv500 - Video tutorial

Model: Mahindra Xuv500 MK 1 - Years 2011-2018
Part: Gear Shift Knob
Operation: How to replace the gear knob of the Mahindra Xuv500.

This short and simple video will show us the steps on how to disassemble and replace the gear knob of the Mahindra Xuv500. First, we get inside the car and start unscrewing the gear knob counterclockwise with force (using pliers if the knob is difficult to remove); then, we pull the knob upwards to remove it, as shown in the video. At this point, we remove and replace, if necessary, the gear shift boot; then, we proceed to install the new knob, trying not to create any play between the lever and the gear knob!

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.
