Mercedes Classe C - Video tutorial

Model: Mercedes Classe C W203 - Years 2000-2007
Part: Glow plugs
Operation: How to replace the glow plugs in the Mercedes C-Class?

In this tutorial, we can see how to replace the glow plugs in the Mercedes C-Class, a very simple operation. Before proceeding, make sure that the engine is sufficiently cool. Let's start by opening the hood, then remove the upper plastic cover and locate the glow plugs on our right. Next, disconnect the connectors, clean any residue in the area, and gently unscrew the first glow plug using a long 10mm wrench. At this point, we can install the replacement, tighten it, and repeat the operation for the remaining glow plugs.

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.
