Citroen C5 - Video tutorial

Model: Citroen C5 RD, X7, MK 2 - Years 2008-2017
Part: Gearshift gaiter
Operation: How to replace the gear lever on a Citroen C5.

In this video we see how to replace the gear knob and boot on a Citroen C5: we begin by removing the boot from its housing, gently pulling upwards. We remove the small ring that holds the boot in place on the knob, and then we remove the knob by sliding it off from the top. For the replacement, you can follow the YouTuber's instructions, but we want to offer you an alternative: the code B09G74JH2M on Amazon at a price of 14.99 euros, with free delivery for Prime customers; moreover, it already comes assembled so there is no need to waste time putting it together with the strap. Simply place the knob on the shaft and gently pull it down. At that point, all that remains is to position the plastic square in its place and you're done.

How to open the Piaggio Beverly saddle with a flat battery

In today's video we see how to open the Piaggio Beverly saddle in case the service battery has run out. First we proceed by opening the compartment on the shield, using the appropriate key. Inside we will find a lever that we will have to pull; at the same time we proceed to unhook the saddle, lifting it. These two operations together, with a little elbow grease, will allow you to open the saddle in cases of extreme need. In fact, we recommend carrying out this operation only if strictly necessary, otherwise it could compromise the correct functioning of the mechanism in the long run.
