Replacement of the front door handle of the BMW 3 Series E91.

Model: BMW Serie 3 E91, E90, E92 - Years 2005-2013
Part: Handle

To replace the front door handle of the BMW 3 Series, we start by removing, with the help of a plastic lever, the silver frame in the center of the door. Using the same system, we remove the cover of the handle. Using an Allen key, we unscrew the screws found in the exposed parts, using some levers we release the lower edge of the panel, push it upwards and slide it out, being careful with the safety rod. Disconnect the electrical connectors and the opening lever cord, using a drill with the right size bit, remove the rivets that secure the handle, finishing the job with scissors. Mount the new handle by fixing it with the supplied screws instead of rivets. Reassemble the panel by proceeding backwards with the operations.

How to Bleed the Clutch on a Renault Clio?

To bleed the clutch on a Renault Clio, open the bonnet to access the components located in the engine bay: here, you will need to undo the screws that secure the battery in its housing, the intake manifold, and the coolant reservoir. This will allow you to locate the pipe through which the brake fluid flows: by inserting the other end of the pipe into a container, you can press the clutch pedal to expel all the fluid until it fills the container.
