Suzuki Grand Vitara - Video tutorial

Model: Suzuki Grand Vitara MK 2 - Years 2005-2015
Part: Timing belt
Operation: How do you replace the timing belt of the Suzuki Grand Vitara?

Replacing the timing belt of the Suzuki Grand Vitara is done by opening the hood, so that access to the components located inside the engine compartment is obtained: here you can identify the cover on the front of the engine block, detach it and locate the pulleys with the belt underneath. By loosening the nut of the tensioner roller, it will be possible to remove it and reduce the tension of the belt, so that the latter can be removed from its housing: after removal, all the components just removed can also be mounted.

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.
