Peugeot 407 - Video tutorial

Model: Peugeot 407 MK 1 - Years 2004-2012
Part: Gear Shift Knob
Operation: How to replace the automatic gear knob of the Peugeot 407.

In this short and simple guide, we will see the steps that will allow us to disassemble and replace the automatic transmission knob of the Peugeot 407. First, we get in the car and start pulling the shift knob upwards with force, in order to detach it from the lever. If it cannot be removed easily, we use levers or pliers to detach it, as shown in the video. At this point, we install the new original shift knob, properly fixing it to the shift lever, making sure not to create any play between the lever and the knob!

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.
