Peugeot 407 - Video tutorial

Model: Peugeot 407 MK 1 - Years 2004-2012
Part: Particulate filter
Operation: How to top up the additive to reduce particulate emissions on the Peugeot 407

To be able to top up the liquid required for the particulate filter, the following procedure must be followed: lift the car from the rear, as the liquid top-up tube is located just before the left rear axle. Once the pipe has been identified, it is necessary to unhook the connection and connect the special filling kit to it using a can of additive. Then take the canister, connect it to the connection kit and turn it over to facilitate filling the system. Once the system has been filled, disconnect the kit and reattach the vehicle's fuel hose.

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.
