BMW Serie 5 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 5 E39 - Years 1995-2003
Part: Seat
Operation: How to disassemble the front seat of the BMW 5 Series.

In this video tutorial, we will see step-by-step instructions on how to disassemble and replace the front seat of the BMW 5 Series. First, we open the front driver's side door and start unscrewing all the fastening screws we find on the seat rails, moving the seat forward and backward to access all the screws. Then, we disconnect the various wiring connections we find underneath, removing the seat from the cabin, as shown in the video. At this point, we proceed to reinstall the front seat by applying the reverse procedure of disassembly!

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.
