Operation: How to replace power steering oil on Mercedes Slk

How to do maintenance on the steering of a Mercedes SLK? Does the steering come hard in rotation? We change the power steering oil to solve the problem and wash the power steering system. Let's start with opening and lifting the bonnet, let's make it safe. We insert the liquid suction tube into the power steering oil pan; After having emptied the used oil from the tray, fill it with additive for washing the system. Once the washing has been carried out, we suck up the used liquid and top up with the new oil. We test the correct functioning of the steering with various steering tests.

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.
