BMW Serie 3 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 3 E46 - Years 1998-2006
Part: Brake discs
Operation: Replacement brake discs and front pads

Raise the car on a lift and remove the front wheels. Unhook the brake pad retaining spring and unscrew the brake caliper fixing pins (it may be useful to hook the caliper to the shock absorber with a spring). Then remove the brake caliper support to allow the disc to be removed later. Once the support has been removed, unscrew the disc fixing pin and remove it from the hub. Clean the hub of any oxidation residues and apply grease to protect it from oxidation. Install the new disc and caliper holder. Then retract the caliper piston by inserting a new pair of pads and the support spring. If necessary, also replace the wear sensor.

How do you adjust the clutch cable on the Kia Picanto?

To be able to adjust the clutch cable of the Kia Picanto you need to open the hood so that you have access to the components inside the engine compartment: in order to reach the cable you will need to remove some components on the right side, such as the battery and the air filter. Below them you will find the clutch cable, which will have to be adjusted by screwing or loosening the bolt placed at the end of the cable. This will make the pedal harder or softer; after the adjustment, it will be possible to assemble all the components by closing the hood.
