BMW Serie 3 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 3 E92, E91, E90 - Years 2005-2013
Part: Bodywork
Operation: Detailed cleaning of your vehicle

What the following guide shows goes far beyond just washing your car. It means paying attention to even the small details to make your car look worthy. The bodywork can be cleaned by wiping with a damp cloth on which we apply a foam cleaner. It is left to rest for a few minutes before dabbing with a towel and after the final cleaning has been carried out, the area in question is washed. For glass, windows and mirrors it is good to use detergent sprays with microfibre cloths, if we do not have any, it is also good to use a simple clean cloth. The car during cleaning must be worked from top to bottom without letting the soap dry.

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.
