Peugeot 208 - Video tutorial

Model: Peugeot 208 A9, MK 1 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Particulate filter
Operation: Topping up wax Peugeot 208

Cerine is an additive contained in a special tank and is mixed with diesel directly in the fuel tank. It serves to form larger agglomerates of particulate matter, favoring the life of the FAP. To top up the wax you have to go to work under the engine compartment, so raise the car to work comfortably. Now you just need to slightly unscrew the clip that holds the compartment of the aforementioned liquid in place, as shown in the video, and the whole compartment will come out of its seat. In this way you can both replace the bag and the whole wax injection mechanism, should it fail.

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.
