BMW Serie 1 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 1 MK 1, E87, E81, E82 - Years 2004-2013
Part: Handle
Operation: Replacement of the exterior handle on BMW 1 Series

Open the door and remove the round screw cover under which there is the bolt that secures the handle: unscrew it. At this point you can extract the lock cylinder by slightly shaking it and pulling it outwards. At this point, with a small flat screwdriver move the lever that fixes the handle and extract it, as well demonstrated in the video. Proceed backwards to reassemble the handle by simply inserting it by hand and then insert the cylinder, tightening the rear fixing bolt. As you can see, this is a very simple operation within everyone's reach.

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.
