Model: BMW Serie 3 E92, E91, E90 - Years 2005-2013
Part: Outside rearview mirror
Operation: How do you replace the exterior mirror on the BMW 3 Series?

In order to replace the rear view mirror of the BMW 3 Series, you must first remove the moldings located on the door panel, on the outside of the handrail and under the power window control panel. Once these two moldings have been removed, it will be possible to loosen the screws below and completely remove the panel, accessing the components in its lower part. Here will be the screws that secure the rear view mirror from the inside, which will need to be loosened in order to completely remove the mirror; after removal it will be possible to insert the new one and mount all the components previously removed.

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.
