Audi A3 - Video tutorial

Model: Audi A3 MK 3, 8V - Years 2012-2019
Part: Dashboard
Operation: How to remove the glove box of an Audi A3

How to remove the glove box of an Audi A3? Let's see how to proceed: with a plastic lever we detach the rivets placed on the lining placed in the lower part of the dashboard (right side under the glove box). Let's get a screwdriver or a cordless drill: remove the tightening screws that tighten the side lining of the tunnel. We unscrew the tightening screws (placed around the glove box frame) with a socket wrench or screwdriver; remove the glove box from the dashboard (disconnect the power supply terminal). We carry out maintenance inside the drawer, and assemble the previously disassembled pieces.

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.
