BMW Serie 3 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 3 E92, E91, E90 - Years 2005-2013
Part: Car stereo
Operation: Car stereo replacement with aftermarket kit

In this video we see how the radio supplied with the car is replaced with an aftermarket multimedia system, supplied with a special kit. Disassembling the car radio is not very simple but not very difficult either. It is necessary to remove the aesthetic parts above the central tunnel, the gearshift gaiter, the ashtray, the air conditioning controls, naturally extract the old radio, remove the front molding with the ventilation outlets. It is good to pay attention to the cables, which must then be reconnected in the appropriate seats of the kit supplied. Note, that in this operation, the position of the start / stop button is also changed. Finally, the video illustrates the reassembly and testing of the system: radio, video / TV, Bluetooth telephone, including the steering wheel controls. This car is a BMW 3 series.

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.
