Part: Checks and maintenance
Operation: How to replace the Toyota Etios engine oil, spark plugs and various filters

To replace the Toyota Etios oil filter and engine oil, we start by pouring engine lubricant into the oil filler cap; poured the lubricant, let the engine run at idle for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, we turn off the engine, go under the car, with a wrench, unscrew the oil drain plug, drain the oil into a container and in the meantime let the oil drain with a chain wrench , unscrew the oil filter by draining the oil into the container. Drained all the oil, clean the seat of the oil filter and the drain plug, screw the filter and the plug back on. Screw the oil filter and the drain plug back on, go into the passenger compartment, on the passenger side, under the dashboard, remove the plastic flap and remove the passenger compartment filter, take the new filter and position it in the same way as the old man was there and we close the door. Now we take the new oil, pour it into the oil filler cap, when we are approximately at the indicated liters, we check the level with the help of the dipstick (the level must be checked the second time the dipstick is removed ), if the level is on the max mark the level is fine otherwise we top up (we can check the oil level later also by running the engine for a few minutes and then checking it). Now let's move on to change the air filter, detaching the tabs of the box lid, remove the lid, remove the old filter, insert the new filter and close the lid by hooking the tabs. In the video, the spark plugs are also changed, so we unscrew the bolt that holds the pin of each spark plug with a socket wrench, unscrew the old spark plugs with a socket wrench, take the new spark plugs and screw them in their seat, finally screw the plug back on superior.

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.
