Skoda Octavia - Video tutorial

Model: Skoda Octavia MK 3, 5E - Years 2012-2019
Part: Radiator
Operation: How do you replace the radiator of the Škoda Octavia?

In order to replace the radiator of the Škoda Octavia, you need to open the hood so that you can loosen the screws and remove the rivets that secure the bumper from its upper part; then it will be possible to proceed by loosening the screws that secure the bumper from the lower part and from inside the front wheel arches. At this point, it will be possible to completely detach it, so that you have access to the radiator at its back: the latter will have to be released from its respective securing screws and from the appropriate pipes. By disconnecting these elements, it will be possible to remove the old radiator and install the new one.

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.
