Peugeot 106 - Video tutorial

Model: Peugeot 106 MK 1 - Years 1991-2004
Part: Brake pads
Operation: How to replace the brake pads of a Peugeot 106

Before we can start, we will have to go to engage the first gear and activate the parking brake of our Peugeot 106. Let's start then by going to lift the car. After that, we will have to unscrew and remove the bolts that secure the wheel to the hub, and then remove the wheel itself. Once this is done, we will need to remove the tablet clip. Next, we will have to go and push the brake pistons, using a large slotted screwdriver and leveraging. At this point, we will be able to remove the worn tablets, and we will have finished the disassembly. To assemble the new pads and reassemble everything, all we have to do is repeat this simple procedure in reverse, and the replacement will be completed.

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.
