BMW Serie 5 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 5 E39 - Years 1995-2003
Part: Seat
Operation: How to remove the driver's seat in the BMW 5 Series?

In this tutorial, we can see how to disassemble the driver's seat in the BMW 5 Series, a very simple operation. First of all, we lift the seat completely using the appropriate control, then we locate the two indicated screws and unscrew them with a Torx T30 key. Next, we move the seat back, unscrew the two front bolts of the brackets with a Torx T50 key, and repeat the operation on the rear side. At this point, all that remains is to unclip the two indicated clips, disconnect the large yellow connector, 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.
