Model: BMW Serie 3 E92, E91, E90 - Years 2005-2013
Part: Outside rearview mirror
Operation: How do you replace the external rearview mirror of the BMW 3 Series?

In order to replace the external rearview mirror of the BMW 3 Series, you need to pry off the internal cover of the door using an object, near the mirror: under this cover, you will be able to locate the three torx screws that secure the mirror, which need to be fully loosened. After removing the screws, you can also disconnect the connector, so that the mirror can be completely removed from its housing: now you can insert the new one, securing it with the appropriate screws and connecting it to the connector.

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.
