First of all, lift the front of the car with a click. Remove the front tire. Remove the brake caliper-pad holder by unscrewing the two bolts with the suitable wrenches. Pry with a screwdriver to decompress the caliper and be able to extract it. Disassemble the caliper housing by unscrewing the bolts with the appropriate wrench. Now unscrew the screw that holds the disc and unravel it from its position. Replace the disc with the new one, positioning it so that the screw hole coincides.

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.
