In order to adjust the valves on the Renault Clio, you need to open the hood so that you can access the components located inside the engine compartment: here you can remove the valve cover by loosening the screws. Before that, you also need to remove the ignition coils and spark plugs underneath: once you have access to the valves, you can adjust them using a feeler gauge.

The correct valve clearance is indicated in the manual (also in the tutorial) and once you have adjusted each valve, you can reassemble all the components.

How to Activate the Disabled TRC on the Toyota Yaris?

As the video clearly shows, disabling or activating the traction control (TRC or ESP) on the Toyota Yaris is very simple. By default, the traction system activates every time the vehicle is started. To disable it, simply press the button depicting a skidding car located in the centre of the vehicle where the controls are, such as the hazard lights and the radio, but near the handbrake. Once disabled, the TRC off light will illuminate on the dashboard. To reactivate it, just press the same button again.
