Seat Leon - Video tutorial

Part: Diesel filter
Operation: How to replace the diesel filter on a Seat Leon

How to replace the diesel filter on a Seat Leon? Let's see the replacement in this video. We open the car door and pull up the engine compartment opening lever located at the bottom left of the dashboard, lift up the front hood. We remove the engine soundproofing panel if necessary; with a socket wrench we unscrew the locking pins placed on the cap that closes the filter (disconnect the cables and the various tubes from the filter) where the filter is located. We extract the diesel filter and replace it with a new one. Finally, reassemble the diesel filter container and tighten the screws (connect pipes and cables). We close the front hood.

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.
