Toyota Calya - Video tutorial

Model: Toyota Calya MK 1 - Years 2016-2023
Part: Shock absorbers
Operation: How do you replace the front shock absorber of the Toyota Calya?

In order to replace the front shock absorber of the Toyota Calya, you need to lift the car so that you can loosen the bolts securing the corresponding wheel. By removing the wheel, you will be able to access the screws that secure the shock absorber at the bottom. Once these screws are unscrewed, you will need to open the hood to loosen the screws at the top of the shock absorber. The piece can now be removed and replaced with a new one; this must be positioned and secured with the appropriate screws.

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.
