BMW Serie 3 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 3 F30, F31 - Years 2012-2019
Part: V-belt
Operation: How do you replace the V-belt of the BMW 3 Series?

In order to replace the V-belt of the BMW 3 Series, you have to open the hood, so that you can access the components inside the engine compartment. In particular, you will need to remove those parts that are in the front of the engine block, such as the air filter box and the radiator. At this point, it will be possible to loosen the central pins of the pulleys around which the V-belt is arranged. By removing the latter, it will be possible to insert a new one by mounting all those components that have been 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.
