Alfa Romeo 159 - Video tutorial

Model: Alfa Romeo 159 MK 1 - Years 2005-2011
Part: Gear Shift Knob
Operation: Remove the knob on Alfa Romeo 159

Remove the knob from above the rod to replace it or to replace the upholstery leather? Let's see the disassembly of the knob. Remove the plastic plate on the knob with a screwdriver, then unscrew with a socket wrench or fix the gear knob. We remove the leather boot from the edge of the central tunnel with a plastic lever if to be replaced. We fix the new knob above the control rod and screw the tightening screw with the key. We fix the plastic plate on the gear knob. We do a general check to see if we have assembled all the pieces properly.

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.
