BMW Serie 3 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 3 E36 - Years 1990-2001
Part: Bodywork
Operation: Assembly of external door molding

The external molding of the door is fixed through pressure stops: for disassembly there are special plastic levers with a fork end that allow the extraction of the stops without damaging them, without deforming the molding itself and above all avoiding scratching the bodywork . For installation it is first necessary to apply the fixing plugs in correspondence with the holes on the door; once applied, align the molding so as to make the stops perfectly coincide with the plugs and press until they engage correctly without excess pressure.

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.
