Operation: How to change the brake discs and pads on the BMW 3 Series F30

In today's video tutorial we will see how to remove and replace the front brake discs and pads on the BMW 3 Series F30 and F31, following the instructions below. First we lift the car and remove the front wheel; then we are going to remove the front brake caliper, removing the metal plate and unscrewing the screws, as shown in the video. At this point we remove the brake disc, replacing it with the new one; therefore we also replace the pads and reassemble everything, starting from the brake disc up to reassembling the caliper with the new pads!

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.
