Mercedes Classe A - Video tutorial

Model: Mercedes Classe A W176 - Years 2012-2018
Part: Thermostat
Operation: How do you replace the thermostat of the Mercedes A-Class?

In order to replace the thermostat of the Mercedes A-Class, you need to open the hood so that you have access to the components located inside the engine compartment. On the right side of the engine compartment, you will find the battery, which needs to be disconnected and removed from its housing by unscrewing the fastening screws. Then, you will also need to loosen all the screws that secure the intake manifold, accessing the components underneath it. The thermostat can now be disconnected and freed from its fastening screws, replacing it with a new one and reassembling all the previously removed parts.

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.
