Volvo V70 - Video tutorial

Model: Volvo V70 MK 3 - Years 2007-2016
Part: Timing belt
Operation: How and when to replace the timing belt of the Volvo V70.

Today we are discovering the useful information for disassembling and replacing the timing belt of the Volvo V70, as well as the V60. On this type of engine, the timing belt replacement is scheduled every 180,000 kilometers or ten years. So, we lift the car and remove the right front wheel and the fender; then we remove the engine support and disassemble the distribution cover, gaining access to the belt, as shown in the video. We replace and install only the original belt, ensuring its long-lasting durability over time.

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.
