Operation: How to replace the thermostat in the BMW 3 Series?

In this tutorial we can see how to replace the thermostat in the BMW 3 Series E46. First of all we remove the plastic cover of the engine by unscrewing the 5 screws, then we locate the thermostat: it is located in the front area of the engine. Then go under the compartment, remove the protection panel and drain the coolant by unscrewing the indicated bolt. Once this is done, we disconnect the two pipes and unscrew the 4 fixing bolts of the thermostat with an 8mm Torx wrench. At this point we can assemble the spare by following exactly the reverse procedure.

How do you adjust the clutch cable on the Kia Picanto?

To be able to adjust the clutch cable of the Kia Picanto you need to open the hood so that you have access to the components inside the engine compartment: in order to reach the cable you will need to remove some components on the right side, such as the battery and the air filter. Below them you will find the clutch cable, which will have to be adjusted by screwing or loosening the bolt placed at the end of the cable. This will make the pedal harder or softer; after the adjustment, it will be possible to assemble all the components by closing the hood.
