Mercedes Classe C - Video tutorial

Model: Mercedes Classe C W203 - Years 2000-2007
Part: Diesel filter
Operation: Disassembly and replacement of the diesel filter

First remove the engine cover: the diesel filter is located next to the air filter container. Unhook the fastening clamps of the tubes connected to the filter pipette and remove the tubes themselves (pay attention to reassemble them in the same position). Loosen the pin of the filter fixing clamp and extract the filter itself, replacing it with the new one; then tighten the fixing clamp. Before reconnecting the hoses, it is advisable to fill the filter with a manual pump to avoid starting problems. Then reconnect the pipes to the filter with the relative clamps and replace the engine cover.

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.
