How to disassemble the seat on BMW 3 Series

Model: BMW Serie 3 E46 - Years 1998-2006
Part: Seat

How to remove the seat of the BMW 3 Series? Let's see how the front seat is removed from above the sliding rails. We move the seat backwards or forwards with the electric buttons and bring the seat up, then, with a socket wrench, unscrew the tightening screws placed on the sliding rails of the seat. Finally we disconnect the power supply terminals of the front seat and pull it away from inside the passenger compartment. We fix the new seat inside the car: we bring the seat rails over the sliding rails. We screw the tightening screws and connect the electrical terminals to make the seat slide.

How to Replace the Timing Belt on a Volkswagen Golf

To perform this simple operation, first lift the bonnet. Then, remove the upper engine cover and the plastic side cover that protects the timing belt. To create more space for the job, you can remove components next to the engine, such as the coolant reservoir, the windscreen washer pipe, and the fuel filter. This will allow you to remove the lower engine cover and the right wheel for better access to the area where you will be working. Now, relieve the tension from the tensioner pulley and remove the belt for replacement.
