Operation: Replacing the timing belt on the Volvo V70 D3 (2012)

Let's see in this video the main steps that will allow us to remove and replace the timing belt on a 2012 Volvo V70 D3. First we lift the car on the front side and go to remove the right front wheel; then we also remove the wheel arch, unscrewing the fixing screws. At this point we remove the lower motor protection; now let's work on the engine compartment, removing the expansion tank and disconnecting the pipes. Now let's disassemble the left engine support and remove the timing cover; we work on the pulleys to remove the V-belt: we just have to take the references for the timing belt and then remove and replace it, following the video to the end!

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.
