Smart - Video tutorial

Model: Smart Smart 451 - Years 2007-2015
Part: Antifreeze liquid
Operation: Replacement of the coolant in the Smart Fortwo.

Today's step-by-step instructions will show us how to replace the coolant in the Smart Fortwo. First, we lift the car and start unscrewing the coolant drain screw, located above the oil filter, allowing it to drain into a container for about ten minutes. Then, we replace the washer on the drain screw. At this point, we unscrew the cap of the radiator reservoir and proceed to top it up with the new antifreeze coolant, which should be suitable and anticorrosive for our radiator, filling it up to the maximum level mark.

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.
