Peugeot 205 - Video tutorial

Model: Peugeot 205 MK 1 - Years 1983-1999
Part: Drums and shoes
Operation: Replacement of the rear brake shoes of a Peugeot 205

Let's see how to replace the rear drum brake pads of a Peugeot 205. We lift the car on a column bridge and remove the wheel to access the brake drum. Once the wheel is removed, we unscrew the locking pins of the drum cover with a socket wrench, remove the same from the wheel hub support. We remove the shoes from inside the brake drum with a socket wrench. We mount the new shoes in the car drum. We close the brake drum and screw in the clamping screws. We mount the wheel and bring the car to the ground. We test the functioning of the brake.

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.
