BMW Serie 3 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 3 E46 - Years 1998-2006
Part: Antifreeze liquid
Operation: Check the antifreeze liquid level

It is advisable first of all to carry out this check operation with a cold engine to avoid unpleasant problems. Open the front hood and make sure it is supported safely. Intercept the coolant reservoir cap: it is located at the front, in correspondence with the curve of the sleeve that connects the intake to the air filter container. Open the cap and check that the float rod comes out of the cap: if not, top up with antifreeze liquid (or water) until the float rises; screw the cap back on.

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.
