Renault Megane - Video tutorial

Model: Renault Megane Megane 3, Megane III - Years 2008-2015
Part: Valve
Operation: Replacing the valve stem seal

In this tutorial you can see how to correctly change the valve stem seals of a Renault Megane. Using a ratchet wrench, we disassemble the protective cover of the valve. At this point we remove the candle. Using a socket wrench we go to disassemble the spring that acts as a compressor on the valves. With a pair of fine pliers, we unscrew the pins located on the valve stem. We remove both the valve and the gasket to be replaced with that of a new kit. Clean the stem with a cloth and lubricate it with clean engine oil. Now place the new gasket, again the valve, the spring, insert the pins by tightening them gently.

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.
