Volkswagen Golf - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Golf Golf IV, Golf 4, MK 4 - Years 1997-2003
Part: Checks and maintenance
Operation: What to do if the gears no longer enter on the Volkswagen Golf IV.

In this video we see what to do if the gears no longer engage in our Volkswagen Golf IV. The problem arises from the gear selector that has been damaged. We can find the part on Ali Express for only 9.73 euros, by entering the code 18832: delivery costs included. But let's see where it goes. Above the gearbox we find all the linkages, and behind them we see two small spheres: that's where we have to insert our selector, which we will have abundantly greased on the two round parts. We have to fit the two greased supports into the spheres, and if we can't do it by hand, we'll use pliers. We have to feel the "click" of the engagement. Now the movement of the linkage is transmitted, and in fact now all the gears engage.

How do I replace the Land Rover Evoque auxiliary battery?

In order to replace the auxiliary battery of the Land Rover Evoque, it is necessary to go inside the passenger compartment and remove the panel which is positioned immediately under the glovebox.

The latter must be disconnected from its cables and the fixing screws must be loosened. The battery can then be replaced with a new one and the panel can be fixed again with its screws.
