Suzuki Grand Vitara - Video tutorial

Model: Suzuki Grand Vitara MK 2 - Years 2005-2015
Part: Brake pads
Operation: How do you replace the front brake pads on a Suzuki Grand Vitara?

To replace the front brake pads of the Suzuki Grand Vitara, you need to lift the car with a jack or a bridge, so that the corresponding front wheel is not in contact with the ground. Once the wheel has been removed by loosening the fixing bolts, you can access the brake caliper, which must in turn be freed from its bolts. This way you can detach the caliper and remove the pads inside, replacing them with new replacement parts; after the replacement, you can mount all the parts that were previously removed.

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.
