Vauxhall Astra - Video tutorial

Model: Vauxhall Astra Astra H - Years 2004-2010
Part: Lambda sensor
Operation: How to remove the lambda probe on the Opel Astra H.

In this video we will see how to remove and replace the oxygen sensor, or more commonly called "lambda probe", on an Opel Astra H. First we open the bonnet of our car and we go to locate our oxygen sensor, which we find bottom on the metal bulkhead; then we use a 22mm socket wrench to unscrew our lambda probe, as shown in the video. At this point we disconnect the electrical connector to definitively remove the sensor; we just have to replace it with the new one, applying the reverse procedure!

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.
