BMW Serie 5 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 5 E39 - Years 1995-2003
Part: Radiator
Operation: Installing a new radiator

This video tutorial shows how to install a new radiator on a BMW 5 series. The video starts with a comparison between the old and the new radiator. Since the old radiator has already been previously disassembled, all that remains is to insert the new one by lowering it from above; it will then be necessary to fix it using the rubber supports (you can also use those of the old radiator if in good condition). Still lowering it from above, insert the radiator fan. As a last step, all that remains is to install the radiator hose. To do this, simply connect it to both mouths and secure it by lowering the metal clips.

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.
