Citroen Ds5 - Video tutorial

Model: Citroen Ds5 MK 1 - Years 2011-2019
Part: Outside rearview mirror
Operation: How to replace the external rearview mirror on the Citroen DS5?

In this tutorial, we can see how to replace the external rearview mirror in the Citroen DS5, an extremely simple and fast operation. First of all, we open the door in which we will be working, then we unscrew the two screws located on the outer edge with a Torx T20 key, detach the frame of the handle and unscrew the additional four fixing screws. We then separate the panel from the door, disconnect the various connectors, and using a 13mm socket wrench, unscrew the single fixing bolt of the mirror. Finally, we separate the mirror from the door and install the replacement following 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.
