Audi A5 - Video tutorial

Model: Audi A5 8W6 - Years 2018-2024
Part: Checks and maintenance
Operation: How to open the fuel door that is locked in the Audi A5?

In the Audi A5, it can happen that the fuel door gets stuck, for example due to a malfunction in the control or actuator of the lock. In both cases, it is possible to perform the emergency opening by following the simple procedure shown in this tutorial. First, we open the trunk door, then we detach the storage basket located on the right side of the compartment. Next, we locate the indicated red cord, grip it, and pull it towards the rear side of the vehicle to unlock the door lock. At this point, we can either refuel or repair the damaged element.

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.
