UAZ Patriot - Video tutorial

Model: UAZ Patriot MK 1 - Years 2005-2022
Part: Checks and maintenance
Operation: How do you remove the UAZ Patriot CV joint?

In order to remove the homokinetic joint of the UAZ Patriot you have to go and lift the car, so that the wheel corresponding to the joint to be replaced is not in contact with the floor. In this way it will be possible to unscrew the bolts that secure the wheel to its hub, removing it completely. The hub itself will then have to be moved by loosening the bolts that secure it to the drive shaft. In this way the joint can be removed from its seat and replaced with a new spare part; after replacement, it will be possible to insert the new joint and mount all the components 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.
