Part: Engine
Operation: How do you remove the engine from the Smart 450?

In order to remove the engine of the Smart 450 you have to open the rear door of the car, so that you can go and unhook the screws that secure the rear bumper. The latter will need to be removed, along with the screws securing the top trunk cover, to remove this panel. In this way it will be possible to loosen the screws of the supports that fix the motor in the upper part. Then you can also loosen the supports that fix the motor in the lower part, completely removing the motor from its housing and replacing it with a 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.
