Part: Oil filter
Operation: Replacement oil filter gaskets on BMW 3 Series

Raise the hood and locate the oil filter. As shown in the video, it is located near the front bumper, between it and the engine compartment. The filter cover is simply unscrewed: to do this there are special circular and adjustable wrenches for filters, but with a little ingenuity you can use other tools, such as a large pliers. If, on the other hand, you want to disassemble the entire housing of the filter, you have to disconnect the pipes, the connector and unscrew the bolts that hold it in place. Once the entire oil filter housing has been removed, you can easily replace the gaskets below.

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.
