Peugeot 3008 - Video tutorial

Model: Peugeot 3008 MK 2, P84 - Years 2016-2023
Part: Shock absorbers
Operation: How to replace the rear shock absorbers of a Peugeot 3008.

In this video we see how to replace the shock absorbers of a Peugeot 3008: first we need to pull the handbrake and lift the vehicle, placing it on a pair of jack stands. We remove the rear wheels and the rear fender, to access the upper fixing screws of the shock absorber, removing the three screws and the two plastic nuts, as well as the three fixing rivets. We remove the two fixing screws on the top of the shock absorber, spray the bottom with a loosening agent and then unscrew it. We will need to loosen the handbrake to be able to remove the lower screw of the shock absorber. Using a pry bar, we lever it out from the bottom. Before installing the new shock absorber, we must activate it, as seen in the video. When it's ready, you can mount it, starting from the top and then mounting the bottom. But to avoid damaging the silent block, you will need to mount it in the "vehicle on the ground" position, lifting it with the jack. Now close the upper screws. Remove the jack and reassemble the fender. Repeat on the other side and reassemble the wheels.

How to reset the TPMS light of the Volkswagen Polo 2011

The orange tire light indicates the presence of one or more tires with an inflation pressure below the recommended limit. All this is easily solved by inflating them correctly or replacing them in the event of a puncture. After carrying out these operations it is necessary to reset the warning light and therefore also the sensor in order to have new reading data. All you have to do is start the car ignition and then fully open the glove compartment on the passenger side. Locate the two buttons in the right corner and press "Set". At this point the reset is complete and you can turn off the ignition.
