Skoda Octavia - Video tutorial

Model: Skoda Octavia MK 3, 5E - Years 2012-2019
Part: Passenger compartment heating radiator
Operation: How do you replace the heat exchanger on the Å koda Octavia?

In order to replace the heat exchanger of the Å koda Octavia, the entire central panel must be disassembled by removing the special plastic covers. Under these panels, there will be a duct connected to the heating radiator which must be freed from its screws and removed. At this point, all the connectors and pipes connected to the exchanger can be disconnected, so that the latter can be removed from its housing. Once the old exchanger has been removed, it will be possible to insert a new spare part, also fitting all the other components.

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.
