Part: Diesel filter
Operation: Replacement of the diesel filter of the Opel Astra 1.7 CDTI

Let's find out in this guide how to remove and replace the Opel Astra 1.7 CDTI diesel filter, in simple and quick steps. First we open the bonnet and we go to identify the diesel filter, which we find at the top; then we go to disconnect the power lines, pressing on the tabs, as shown in the video. At this point we unscrew the top cap of the filter to remove the old cartridge, replacing it with the new one (with the original spare); then we assemble the filter cover again, making the various connections again!

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.
