BMW Serie 3 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 3 E46 - Years 1998-2006
Part: Seat
Operation: How do you replace the front seat cover on the BMW 3 Series?

In order to replace the front seat cover on the BMW 3 Series, you need to pry with an object so that you can detach the plastic covers located on the side parts of the seat itself: when these covers have been removed, it will be possible to pry with a screwdriver, so that the flaps of the seat cover can be detached from the corresponding frame. Then, the new coating can be inserted around the frame and the previously removed plastic covers can be reinserted; after replacement, the seat can be fixed again inside the passenger compartment.

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.
