Mercedes 190 - Video tutorial

Model: Mercedes 190 W201 - Years 1982-1993
Part: Brake discs
Operation: How to replace the brake discs and pads kit of MERCEDES W201.

Today, thanks to our video tutorial, we will explain how to remove the brake discs from a Mercedes-Benz 190, model W201. We begin by removing the front tires using a combination wrench No. 17 to loosen the bolts. We continue the removal by lifting the car and removing the tire completely. With the help of a combination wrench No. 15, we remove the fastening elements of the brake caliper and thus remove the brake pads. With a No. 17 wrench, we remove the brake disc and clean its housing with W40 spray. After cleaning everything, we install the new brake disc and new brake pads. We clean the surface of the brake disc before installing the tire. Finally, we finish the job by installing the tire and bringing the car back to the ground.

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.
