Model: BMW Serie 3 E46 - Years 1998-2006
Part: Door
Operation: Removing the front door BMW 3 Series

In this video guide we will see how to remove the front door of a BMW 3 Series, in simple steps. First of all, let's open the door and equip ourselves with a 10 mm socket wrench: then let's go and unscrew the door pull bolt; then we also unscrew the two nuts of the door hinge. At this we slightly lift the door and extract it, as shown in the video; we just have to remove the electrical cables located inside the sheath: to disconnect them we are going to unscrew the fixing screws with a socket wrench and then disconnect its electrical connector!

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.
