Renault Megane - Video tutorial

Model: Renault Megane Megane 3, Megane III - Years 2008-2015
Part: Timing belt
Operation: How to replace the timing belt on the Renault Scenic?

If we want to proceed with the replacement of the timing belt on this one where it is hard we can refer broadly to the description given below and above all take a look at the video. First of all, open the bonnet and disconnect the battery, then lift the car and remove the right wheel, then remove the inner mudguard fixing screws. Then proceed to remove the service belt by loosening the tensioner. Remove the lower acoustic panel and the lower engine mount attachment bolt. Loosen the hose clamp of the coolant duct located under the radiator and empty the circuit. Once the upper engine support has been dismantled, we can help ourselves to lift it with a small crane. Then remove the protective casing of the upper belt and then unscrew the screws which support the lower casing. At this point we will have access to the belt and we can insert the timing pin on the crankshaft pulley and on the camshaft pulley. Then remove the crankshaft pulley and slacken the belt tensioner. Finally, at this point it will be possible to remove the belt.

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.
