Operation: How to open a bonnet on the BMW 3

How to open the front engine hood on our BMW 3 Series? Let's see how to do it. We pull the lever located at the bottom left of the dashboard, then, slightly raise the engine hood and release the release lever. Once the engine hood is unlocked, let's lift it up and put it in safety. Now that we have opened the bonnet we can do our maintenance on the liquid trays. To close the hood we press down until it closes. Make sure that the hood is properly closed in order to have problems while the vehicle is running.

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.
