BMW Serie 3 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 3 E46 - Years 1998-2006
Part: Cabin air filter
Operation: Cabin filter replacement on BMW 3 Series

Replacing the pollen filter on BMW 3 Series E46 is really very simple, and today we show you how. The first thing to know is that on this model of car the cabin air filter is accessed from the hood, and not from the cabin itself. So, raise the hood and put on the special support rod. Behind the engine compartment you can see a horizontal compartment, near the windscreen: it is the pollen filter box. To open it, simply rotate the three pins on the lid and remove it. Replace the filter and close the box. Nothing easier!

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.
