Mercedes Slk - Video tutorial

Model: Mercedes Slk R170, MK 1 - Years 1997-2004
Part: Brake discs
Operation: How to replace the rear brake disc on a Mercedes SLK

Before starting, we will have to lift the rear side of our Mercedes SLK. So let's start by disassembling the rear wheel, unscrewing the relative fixing bolts. Next, we will have to unscrew and remove the brake caliper fastening bolts. Having done this, we will have to move the brake caliper itself. At this point we will have to unscrew the screws that secure the disc to its hub. When we have completed this last step, we will have to go to disengage and remove the rear brake disc from its housing, and we will have correctly completed the disassembly.

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.
