BMW Serie 7 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 7 MK 2, MK 3, E38, E32 - Years 1986-1994
Part: Timing belt
Operation: How do you replace the timing chain of the BMW 7 Series?

To replace the timing chain of the BMW 7 Series, you must open the hood so that you can access the components inside the engine compartment. Specifically, you will need to unscrew the bolts that secure some components in the front of the compartment, such as the radiator and alternator, so that they can be removed completely. After these parts have been removed, you can unscrew the nuts that secure the sprockets and tensioner, reducing the tension of the chain itself and removing it from its housing. Once the piece has been removed, you can position the new one, also mounting all the parts previously removed.

How to open the bonnet of the Volkswagen Polo

Let's see in this short and simple guide the instructions that will allow us to open the bonnet of the Volkswagen Polo. First of all we open the front door, on the driver's side, and start pulling the opening lever of the engine hood, in order to open the lock; then let's move to the front of the vehicle and unhook the tab that we find on the central part, above the manufacturer's emblem, as shown in the video. At this point we block the bonnet with the lateral rod; then we accompany the bonnet down to close it again!
