Maruti Alto - Video tutorial

Model: Maruti Alto AOD - Years 2012-2019
Part: Engine oil
Operation: Changing the engine oil and oil filter of the Maruti Alto

Today we see in this guide the step-by-step instructions to be able to carry out the routine maintenance coupon, replacing the engine oil and the oil filter, of the Maruti Alto. First of all we raise the car and begin to unscrew the oil vent bolt that we find under the engine, using a star or box spanner, letting the oil drain into a container for about ten minutes; then we use the special wrench to unscrew the oil filter cartridge, replacing it with the new one, as shown in the video. Now let's unscrew the filler cap and top up!

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.
