Mercedes Classe C - Video tutorial

Model: Mercedes Classe C W203 - Years 2000-2007
Part: Engine oil
Operation: How to change the oil and its filter

Here is a tutorial that will come in handy if you want to change the engine oil on your Mercedes C 230 Kompressor. Make sure that the car engine is cold then, with an 8 mm pocket, remove the nuts that secure the shield that protects the bottom of the car; you will then have access to the oil pan in its lower part. Take a pan to dispose of the old oil and place it under the pan. With a 13 mm wrench, unscrew the lower cap of the sump and let the old oil flow into the pan. In the meantime, with the special wrench, unscrew the cap with the attached filter and, on another basin, take the old filter from its cap. Remove the three old gaskets and after lubricating them, place them on the new filter. After about twenty minutes (when the old oil has completely drained away) replace the bottom cap of the sump. Top up the oil following the quantities indicated in the maintenance booklet and check the level. In these types of models, the oil level is checked electronically on the on-board computer (and not by means of a dipstick).

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.
