BMW Serie 3 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 3 E46 - Years 1998-2006
Part: Side window
Operation: How to calibrate the driver's side side glass

I will explain how to calibrate your side window of your car, remove the door panel to access the glass lifting mechanism; to ensure that in the future it closes well and adheres to the seals. In front of you you will find various slots (holes) in which you will be able to see two supports that hold your glass; now it is all about intercepting them halfway through the door and thus you will be able to glimpse the bolts that hold everything in place. Take a wrench and start loosening the bolts a little, now with an eye and a lot of attention try to align your glass as precisely as possible until you understand and be convinced that your problem is solved. After that to finish tighten the bolts and make sure your work is successful.

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.
