BMW Serie 3 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 3 F30, F31 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Outside rearview mirror
Operation: Replace the mirror arrow on the BMW F30

To start this operation, we must first tilt the rear-view mirror glass, orienting it upwards. By pressing with a special plastic tool we release the supports of the same, being careful not to break it. Now we remove the cap which is held in position by the three hooks that we show you with the help of a pliers without applying excessive pressure. Now we can unscrew the tightening screws that anchor our arrow which can now be removed after removing the wiring pin. All that remains is to replace it and follow the steps backwards for reassembly.

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.
