BMW Serie 3 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 3 E46 - Years 1998-2006
Part: Spark plugs
Operation: How do you replace the spark plugs on the BMW 3 Series?

In order to replace the spark plugs of the BMW 3 Series, you have to open the hood and loosen the bolts that secure the plastic cover of the upper part of the engine compartment. Once this has been removed, it will be possible to disconnect all the connectors connected to the coil located above the spark plugs. In this way, the coil itself can be removed giving access to the spark plug housing; the latter can be extracted from their housing using a socket wrench. The new spark plugs will then be inserted into their sockets and connected to the coil.

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.
