Part: Outside rearview mirror
Operation: How to disassemble the external rearview mirror in the BMW 3 Series?

In this tutorial, we can see how to disassemble the external rearview mirror in the BMW 3 Series, an extremely simple and fast operation. First of all, we open the door in which we will be working, then we remove the cover of the handle and unscrew the newly released screws. We then remove the window lift console, separate the panel from the door, and disconnect both the connector and the lock rope. At this point, all that's left is to unscrew the mirror fixing bolts, remove it from the support, and install the replacement.

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.
