Mazda Mpv - Video tutorial

Model: Mazda Mpv LW - Years 1999-2006
Part: Pump
Operation: Water pump replacement

In the case of the vehicle in question, the water pump is driven by an auxiliary belt which is located on the right side of the engine (looking at it from the front) and to facilitate disassembly it is first of all necessary to remove the air filter container; clearly, the operation must be carried out with the engine cold. At this point, release the elastic bands that secure the sleeves to the pump: given the position, a fairly long curved nose pliers or a suitable cord tool is required. Once the sleeves have been released, unscrew the fixing pins of the pump to the cylinder block and remove it. The new pump is already equipped with new connection sleeves and the relative pulley: proceed backwards for reassembly; if necessary, also replace the auxiliary belt.

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.
