Vauxhall Corsa - Video tutorial

Model: Vauxhall Corsa Corsa D - Years 2006-2014
Part: Glow plugs
Operation: How to replace the glow plugs on the Opel Corsa 1.3 CDTI - Fiat Punto 1.3 Multijet

Let's find out in this video how to remove and replace the engine glow plugs on the Opel Corsa 1.3 CDTI, but also on the Fiat Punto 1.3 MultiJet (both cars have the same engine). First we open the engine hood and remove the top plastic cover; after which we disconnect the connector or the pipette of our glow plug, in order to be able to unscrew it. We therefore use a socket wrench with extension to remove and replace the glow plug with the new one, of the right type; we screw by hand and then finish tightening with a wrench (possibly dynamometric)!

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.
