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

In order to replace the timing belt on the Renault Megane, the car must be lifted so that the bolts that secure the front right wheel can be loosened, removing it completely. After the wheel has been removed, it will be possible to slacken the bolts that secure the internal wheel arch cover in order to remove it and access the pulleys around which the belt is arranged. By loosening the central pins of the pulleys it will be possible to remove the old timing belt and replace it with a new one, also assembling all the previously removed parts.

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.
