BMW Serie 3 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 3 E46 - Years 1998-2006
Part: Parking sensors
Operation: How do you replace the parking sensors of the BMW 3 Series?

In order to replace the parking sensors of the BMW 3 Series, you need to pry with an object so that you can detach the molding located in the central part of the rear bumper. Once this molding has been detached, it will be possible to locate the underlying parking sensors, which can be disconnected from their respective connectors and removed from their housing. In this way, it will be possible to connect the new sensors to these connectors, inserting them inside the molding and fixing it in the central part of the rear bumper.

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.
