Alfa Romeo 159 - Video tutorial

Model: Alfa Romeo 159 MK 1 - Years 2005-2011
Part: Outside rearview mirror
Operation: Remove rear view mirror of an Alfa Romeo 159

Is the car mirror damaged? Let's see how to remove the piece from the mirror seat. With a plastic or rubber lever, we go to pry between the perimeter of the mirror frame and the mirror glass of the same. We pry until the plastics come off the mirror (we disconnect the power cable); very delicate operation because the slide or the mirror itself could break. Unscrew the screws with a screwdriver to disconnect the mirror cover 8 inside the shell). We mount the new cap and then the new mirror (we press the mirror until the plastic blocks).

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.
