Peugeot 407 - Video tutorial

Model: Peugeot 407 MK 1 - Years 2004-2012
Part: Gear Shift Knob
Operation: How to replace the knob on Peugeot 407

Replace the damaged knob on Peugeot 407. We remove the knob and the leather boot if damaged. We take the knob in our hands and rotate it to the left and right until it is removed from the shift rod. Disconnect the frame of the leather cap (if damaged) with a plastic lever. After having mounted the new leather cap with the clips (if removed), take the new knob and insert it into the rod on the central tunnel. We press the new knob until it locks. Finally, we test the correct assembly of the knob with the movement of the rod on the central tunnel.

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.
