Model: BMW Serie 3 E36 - Years 1990-2001
Part: Seat
Operation: How to remove the front seats in the BMW 3 Series?

In this tutorial, we can see how to remove the front seats in the BMW 3 Series, an extremely simple and fast operation. Before proceeding, let's disconnect the negative terminal of the battery to avoid accidental activation of the airbags. Let's start by opening the door on the side where we will be working, then move the seat backwards, locate the front fixing nuts, and unscrew them with a socket wrench. Then move the seat forward, unscrew the rear nuts, and remove the seat from the cabin. To install the replacement, simply follow the reverse procedure.

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.
