Peugeot 106 - Video tutorial

Model: Peugeot 106 MK 1 - Years 1991-2004
Part: Shock absorbers
Operation: Shock absorber assembly instructions

the front shock absorber consists of two fundamental elements: the spring and the damper, held together through the upper support of the shock absorber itself; therefore, in order to assemble the shock absorber, it is essential to have the appropriate clamps that allow you to compact the spring and then fix the support to the damper stem and then release the spring itself. Then insert the new damper in the so-called case, screw the fixing ring, insert the protection cap, compact the spring with the special clamps, insert it on the shock absorber stem, fix the upper support and release the spring.

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.
