BMW Serie 1 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 1 MK 1, E87, E81, E82 - Years 2004-2013
Part: Air filter
Operation: How to replace an air filter on BMW Serie 1

How do we replace the cabin filter present on BMW 1 Series? Let's see in this video how to disassemble the pieces: remove the fastening screws of the panel placed under the front windshield with a screwdriver. Remove with a lever (where the air filter is present) the cap from the filter holder and extract the worn passenger compartment filter. We insert a new cabin filter making it adhere well around the walls of the box. Finally we reassemble the filter box panel and tighten the screws on it. We check the correct assembly of the parts mounted on the vehicle.

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.
