Operation: How to activate or deactivate the traction control of the BMW X1

In this guide, let's briefly see the steps that will allow us to activate and deactivate the traction control of the BMW X1; remember that disabling traction control could compromise driver safety and vehicle road holding. So we get on board the car and start the engine; we will find on the central console, next to the gear lever, the traction control button; so let's press it to deactivate it (it appears to be always active). This will show that traction control is deactivated; press the button again to activate it!

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.
