How to remedy the sticky handles of BMW 3 Series F30/F31

Model: BMW Serie 3 F30, F31 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Handle

We know that the inner part of the internal handles of the BMW 3 Series version F30/F31 tend to become a bit sticky over time; we usually think it's due to oily hands, which make the handle sticky from the inside, but it's not. It's actually the material of the handle that deteriorates. However, there is a solution to this problem: there are covers, available in black or "carbon look" color, that can be easily found on e-commerce platforms. For example, we recommend Amazon with the code B09MLPPRDR at a price of 19.99 euros for the pair, with free delivery. For installation, there is no need to disassemble anything, just press them onto the sticky handle and the problem is solved.

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.
