BMW Serie 3 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 3 E92, E91, E90 - Years 2005-2013
Part: Seat
Operation: How to disassemble the driver's seat in the BMW 3 Series?

In this tutorial, we can see how to remove the driver's seat in the BMW 3 Series, a very simple and fast operation. First of all, disconnect the negative terminal of the battery, in order to work safely. Then, move the seat all the way back and, using a Torx T50 key, unscrew the two brackets bolts. Move the seat forward, unscrew the two additional bolts, and disconnect the large yellow connector located underneath the seat. At this point, all that remains is to remove the seat from the cabin, position the replacement seat, and 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.
