Mazda Cx 7 - Video tutorial

Part: Timing belt
Operation: How to replace the timing chain in Mazda Cx7

In this video we are going to see how to replace the timing chain in the Mazda Cx7. It should be known that it should be replaced approximately every 100,000 kilometres. First you need to disconnect the battery cables, remove the radiator cap, open the coolant drain valve and disconnect the hoses from the radiator. Now let's remove the screws that fix the timing chain, remove the water pump heating pipes, then remove the water pump, the crankshaft pulley and finally remove the timing chain. Move on to chain replacement and reassemble all removed items.

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.
