Vauxhall Astra - Video tutorial

Model: Vauxhall Astra Astra G - Years 1998-2006
Part: Pump
Operation: Where is the water pump located in the Opel Astra?

In this video, we can see where the water pump is located in the Opel Astra G, which is useful in case it is malfunctioning and we need to replace it. As shown, it is located in the right area of the engine, to our left if we are facing the car from the front, at about halfway up. To access it, we will first need to remove the filter box, and then remove the right engine support and the rocker support, going underneath the vehicle. This is both a complex and delicate operation, so it is recommended to do it in the presence of an experienced technician.

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.
