BMW Serie 3 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 3 E46 - Years 1998-2006
Part: Central tunnel
Operation: How to replace the central tunnel of your car

The guide shows us how to replace the central tunnel of our car. In this part of the car there are various instruments and devices. How should this central tunnel be disassembled? There are special screws and joints on which to leverage without the need to force too much. Once the 4 screws from the dashboard have been removed, the central tunnel can be detached, being careful not to break the plastic hooks or damage the electrical wires. The disassembly of the central tunnel is not difficult, but the removal maneuvers must still be done with care and a lot of attention.

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.
