BMW Serie 3 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 3 E46 - Years 1998-2006
Part: Antifreeze liquid
Operation: How to check and top up the antifreeze

The video guide shows how to check the antifreeze liquid contained in the cooling system and how to top it up if necessary. The first rule is to carry out this operation only with a cold engine and not for any reason to try to open the tank when the engine is hot. The operation is quite simple, once you unscrew the cap, which is located in the front part of the car, you will see a dipstick that floats inside the liquid, this rod is used to show you the level of the liquid present, so if necessary you can proceed to top up until the dipstick is at the correct level, as shown in the video. The car is a BMW E46.

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.
