Suzuki Maruti Swift - Video tutorial

Model: Suzuki Maruti Swift Rs413d, Rs415, Rs413 - Years 2005-2021
Part: Shock absorbers
Operation: How do you replace the rear shock absorber on your Maruti Swift?

To be able to replace the rear shock absorber of the Maruti Swift, the car must be lifted using a jack, so that the corresponding wheel is not in contact with the floor. Then it will be necessary to unscrew the bolts that fix the wheel, so that it can be removed giving access to the components in its rear part. Then you will have to loosen the bolts that fix the shock absorber in the lower and upper part: the upper one will be accessible by opening the tailgate and lifting the relative plastic cover inside the boot. In this way it will be possible to mount the new shock absorber, also re-fixing the corresponding wheel.

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.
