BMW Serie 3 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 3 E92, E91, E90 - Years 2005-2013
Part: Air filter
Operation: BMW 3 Series e90 air filter replacement

Today we are going to replace the air filter on our BMW 3 Series e90. First we open the hood of the car. Having identified the filter box, we are going to release the clamps present. Release the clamps and loosen the metal clamp on the suction pipe, and then remove the pipe from the filter box. We can then remove the filter cover and the old air filter. Now let's give it a good clean inside with a compressor or with a damp cloth, removing leaves, earth and any dirt. Now we can reposition the new filter, making sure it is in the correct position, and then close it with the lid. Now we hook the clamps, and reconnect the suction tube, being careful not to force too much. The new air filter has been replaced correctly!

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.
