SsangYong Rexton - Video tutorial

Model: SsangYong Rexton MK 1 - Years 2001-2017
Part: Shock absorbers
Operation: How do you replace the rear shock absorber of the Ssangyong Rexton?

To replace the rear shock absorber of the Ssangyong Rexton, you need to lift the car with a jack or a lift, so that the corresponding wheel is not in contact with the ground. This way, you can unscrew the screws that fix the wheel and access the components in its rear part: here you will see the bolts that fix the shock absorber both in the upper part and in the part corresponding to the hub. When the piece has been released, it will be possible to insert the new one by fixing it with the appropriate bolts and mounting the corresponding wheel.

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.
