BMW Serie 3 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 3 E46 - Years 1998-2006
Part: Tail light
Operation: Rear light disassembly instructions

The rear light is made up of two parts: one fixed on the external side of the body and the other applied to the tailgate of the luggage rack; to be able to disassemble the latter, it is therefore necessary to open the door of the luggage compartment and remove the sound-absorbing coating underneath; once the covering has been removed, unhook the lamp holder to access the fixing nut of the headlight, then loosen this nut without removing it completely in order to release the fixing tab and be able to free the headlight first from the inside and then from the outside; repeat the same steps also on the other lighthouse.

    • Serie 3 1990-2001 - How do you remove the brake light switch on the BMW 3 Series E36? Read Answer

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.
