Porsche Boxster - Video tutorial

Model: Porsche Boxster 986, MK 1 - Years 1996-2004
Operation: Replacement master cylinder Porsche Boxster 986

In this video tutorial we will see how to disassemble the master cylinder of the braking system of a Porsche Boxster 986. We open the engine hood and we go to remove first and we go to remove the brake pump together with the fluid reservoir, disconnecting the electrical connector and unscrewing the fixing screws; then we go to unscrew the central screw, with a torx wrench, and remove the front wheel. At this point we are going to bleed the brakes, removing the oil and opening the vent screw, and we are going to press the pedal to get it out, as shown in the video!

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.
