Replacing the transfer case gears on a BMW X3

Model: BMW X5 E53 - Years 1999-2006

Let's start with the disassembly of the transfer case motor which transfers part of the torque on the four wheels of the car which is housed at the end of the gearbox. Now let's see how to replace any damaged components. We start by separating the electric motor and the actuator which are joined by four Torx head screws. We then remove the stop in the center of the gears and the internal washer and also the front metal plate. At this point the entire internal gear can be disassembled and we can separate the toothed wheel which meshes with the worm screw which in turn is housed on the shaft of the electric motor.

How to Install Universal Roof Bars on a Renault Clio

Install universal roof bars on a Renault Clio. Universal roof bars are used on cars with roof rails (fixed bar secured to the roof of the car) and without. Fit the bar kit (as shown in the video) with the bars adjusted according to the width of the car. Position the brackets at both ends of the doors on the car's original roof rails. Once you have adjusted the width of the anchoring brackets (measure with a tape measure), tighten the bolts with the butterfly nut (if a lock is present) until fully secured to the roof rails. Finally, fit the safety caps on both sides.
