Mercedes Classe A - Video tutorial

Model: Mercedes Classe A W169 - Years 2004-2012
Part: Oil filter
Operation: Where is the engine oil filter located on the Mercedes A-Class?

The oil filter on a Mercedes A-Class vehicle is located inside the engine compartment, specifically behind the engine and covered by a protective box. The warning light comes on when it is necessary to top up the liquid in the reservoir or when it is necessary to replace the filter. To perform the oil replacement, you will need to open the reservoir cap and then drain it from the oil pan. To remove the filter, we need to unscrew the nut that secures the filter box and then remove the worn filter from the inside. Clean the filter housing before inserting the new filter.

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.
