Operation: How to replace front wheel bearing on Smart Fortwo

Let's find out in this short guide how to disassemble and replace the front wheel bearing of the Smart Fortwo, following the instructions below. First of all we raise the car and start unscrewing the bolts of the front wheel, in order to remove it; then we unscrew the brake caliper screws, thus removing the caliper from the disc, as shown in the video. At this point we unscrew the central nut to remove the brake disc and the wheel bearing, replacing it with the new one; then let's put everything back together, following the video tutorial until the end!

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.
