Mazda 5 - Video tutorial

Model: Mazda 5 MK 1 - Years 2005-2015
Part: Timing belt
Operation: Replacement of the timing belt of the Mazda 2.

Today's guide will illustrate the main steps for disassembling and replacing the timing belt of the Mazda 2. First, we open the car's engine hood and start by disassembling and removing the coolant reservoir. Then, we lift the car and remove the right front wheel, taking off the fender and then disconnecting the serpentine belt, as shown in the video. At this point, we remove the crankshaft pulley and disassemble the distribution cover. Now, we take the necessary measurements for replacement and install the new original timing 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.
