Peugeot 307 - Video tutorial

Model: Peugeot 307 MK 1 - Years 2001-2009
Part: Engine head
Operation: Removing and replacing the cylinder head

This video shows us how to remove and replace the cylinder head on our car. If our car has an abnormal consumption of coolant, one of the main causes could derive from damage to the cylinder head gasket. If the car has been standing for a long time, the gasket will deteriorate or if the engine has overheated the gasket will deteriorate. To replace the gasket, the cylinder head and all related parts must be removed; finally bring the cylinder head to be adjusted and before reassembling it, install a new specific gasket for the engine. We must remember to tighten the cylinder head with the correct tightening torque.

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.
