Volvo V50 - Video tutorial

Model: Volvo V50 MK 1 - Years 2004-2012
Part: Timing belt
Operation: Guide to replacing the timing belt of the Volvo V50 2.0L.

The procedure illustrated in this guide will show us how to dismantle and replace the timing belt of the Volvo V50 2.0L, as well as the V70. First, we open the hood of the car and begin dismantling and removing the engine support, subsequently disconnecting the alternator belt. We lift the car and remove the right front wheel, dismantling the crankshaft pulley and the distribution casing. Subsequently, the entire engine block is removed from the chassis; this way, it will be easier to proceed with the replacement of the timing belt, following the video tutorial until 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.
