BMW Serie 3 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 3 E92, E91, E90 - Years 2005-2013
Part: Headlight bulb
Operation: How to replace the sidelight bulbs in the BMW 3 Series?

Replacing the sidelights bulbs in the BMW 3 Series E90 is a very simple operation, let's see how to proceed in this tutorial. As shown, the light unit is accessible from the small flap located in the front part of the wheel arch, but since the light in question is positioned too low, it is necessary to remove the wheel arch. To do this, simply unscrew the 6 screws that keep it anchored to the bodywork. Once disassembled, we remove the light cap, disconnect the connector and extract the bulb after unscrewing the two fixing screws. Finally, we assemble the spare part and reassemble everything following the reverse procedure.

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.
