BMW Serie 3 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 3 E46 - Years 1998-2006
Part: Door panel
Operation: Remove the front door panel on BMW 3

Is the door panel damaged or do we want to take it apart to replace some parts? Let's see how to remove the door panel of a BMW 3 Series. Remove the plastic covering at the top of the panel, detach the window control panel (disconnect the power supply terminals). We remove all the screw cover caps. We unscrew all the screws on the door panel and remove the clips for tightening it. Remove the panel with your hands and unhook it from the door (disconnect the power cables and the opening cable). We carry out the replacement of the door. We mount the damaged parts inside the door or the panel itself.

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.
