BMW Serie 1 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 1 MK 1, E87, E81, E82 - Years 2004-2013
Part: Seat
Operation: Removal of front seats BMW 1 Series e87

In this video we will see how to remove the front seats of a BMW 1 Series e87. We move back our seat completely and unscrew the screws that we find in the guides of our seat with a torx wrench, then we move forward to unscrew the rear ones: we tilt the seat and remove the headrest if we want. Before removing the seat we have to disconnect the electrical connector located underneath (remove it very carefully so as not to damage the pins): remove the lateral plastic cover and unscrew the screw with a Allen key. At this point we can go to remove the seat by pulling upwards!

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.
