Model: BMW Serie 3 E46 - Years 1998-2006
Part: Manufacturer's coat of arms
Operation: Replacement of the manufacturer's emblem

It happens quite frequently that due to the action of the sun and / or the detergents of the car wash, the manufacturer's emblem applied to the front hood deteriorates; It is possible to replace it with a new one, often available also in the after market; the emblem is applied by pressure through two pegs, it is therefore sufficient to pry along the edges to be able to remove it (it is suggested to use a plastic tool); clean the seat of the emblem and apply the new one by aligning the pegs and pressing until it fits perfectly; finally remove the protective film.

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.
