Volvo S70 - Video tutorial

Model: Volvo S70 MK 1 - Years 1996-2000
Part: Engine
Operation: Replacement of the car manifold

The manifold is a fundamental piece for the smooth running of the car. It is made of metal and is used to collect the carbon monoxide and other harmful gases produced and to disperse them in the environment. It may happen that the manifold is loose, in which case it is necessary to tighten the screws that secure it to the car. You can also proceed to disassemble the piece, stop the car, open the bonnet and locate the piece, proceeding, in the meantime, to seal all the cracks that you encounter and to reassemble the manifold in the same way as before. Also because if the manifold has visible problems, not replacing it means putting yourself and the engine in danger.

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.
