Buick Regal - Video tutorial

Model: Buick Regal MK 5 - Years 2009-2017
Part: Key
Operation: How to program a new key for the Buick Regal?

We bought a new aftermarket key for our Buick Regal but don't want to have it programmed by the official dealer? We can save some money by programming it ourselves. Let's see together how to do it by following the instructions illustrated in this video. Get a timer (the one on your mobile is fine too) and insert the new key in the ignition cylinder, turn it to the ON position and wait 10 minutes and 15 seconds. Let's turn it to the OFF position and then back to ON for a time equal to the previous one. Let's do it one more time. Finally, we turn the key to OFF, then to ON and start the engine!

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.
