BMW Serie 5 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 5 E39 - Years 1995-2003
Part: Bodywork
Operation: Replacement of the heel guard panel

In this short video, the panel located near the heel guard on the left side of the car is replaced, a BMW 5 series. After opening the door, locate the panel. It is attached to the body by three white clips (two side and one central). To remove the panel it will be sufficient to insert the fingers of both hands in the slot near the clips and pull the panel upwards. It will come off. To reposition it (or to replace it) just reposition it as before and exert a little pressure on it until the clips re-engage.

Disassembly of the gear knob on the Lancia Ypsilon 2

Today we will see, in this video tutorial, how to remove and replace the gear knob on the second series Lancia Ypsilon, but also on the Lancia Musa, in simple and quick steps. We get inside the car and start by removing the old gear knob; to do this, just unscrew it anticlockwise, as shown in the video. At this point we also remove the gearshift gaiter, in order to replace, if necessary, it too; we just have to fix the new headset and insert the new gear knob, screwing it correctly and without creating play on the gear lever!
