BMW Serie 3 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 3 E36 - Years 1990-2001
Part: Manufacturer's coat of arms
Operation: Replacement of the manufacturer's emblem and the color of the logo.

If you wish to replace the manufacturer's emblem, proceed as follows. Using a plastic tool in order not to damage the body, place a rag near the logo to be removed and, prying it between the logo and the body, force it in several points until it comes out of its seat. Using needle-nosed tweezers, gently remove the two plastic plugs and install two new ones. At this point it is sufficient to place the emblem on the two blocks and push it downwards. To change the color of the coat of arms it is necessary to have the appropriate decals. Remove the stick of your favorite color and apply it on the emblem in the correct place. At the end of the work it is possible to apply a protective film simply by removing the transparent stick and applying it to the logo.

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.
