Skoda Fabia - Video tutorial

Model: Skoda Fabia NJ, Mark3 - Years 2014-2021
Part: Timing belt
Operation: Replacing the timing belt on the Skoda Fabia 1.0 MPI

In this video tutorial we will see the main instructions for disassembling and replacing the timing belt on the Skoda Fabia 1.0 MPI, but also on the Polo and Volkswagen Up. First of all we lift the car and start by removing the front right wheel arch, in order to access the V-belt; we loosen the pretensioner to remove it, as shown in the video. At this point we are going to remove the cover on the distribution side; we then disassemble the pulley and remove the belt, after having taken all the references. Let's reassemble everything, applying the reverse procedure!

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.
