BMW Serie 3 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 3 E46 - Years 1998-2006
Part: Engine oil
Operation: Engine oil replacement by means of an aspirator

A quick and practical way to change engine oil is to use an electric pump. The first step is to remove the oil plug. Using the appropriate equipment, carefully suck the engine oil by introducing the suction pipe into the control rod duct, then pump to create a vacuum and suck up the oil. Extract the exhausted cartridge from the filter seat, replacing it with a new one, also changing the o-ring. Top up with new oil, refit the dipstick and check the correct level on the graduated seat. Do not disperse the used oil in the environment but take it to the appropriate collection centers.

How do you adjust the clutch cable on the Kia Picanto?

To be able to adjust the clutch cable of the Kia Picanto you need to open the hood so that you have access to the components inside the engine compartment: in order to reach the cable you will need to remove some components on the right side, such as the battery and the air filter. Below them you will find the clutch cable, which will have to be adjusted by screwing or loosening the bolt placed at the end of the cable. This will make the pedal harder or softer; after the adjustment, it will be possible to assemble all the components by closing the hood.
