Citroen C3 - Video tutorial

Model: Citroen C3 SC - Years 2009-2016
Part: Engine mount
Operation: How to change the engine mount and the ball joint of the Citroen C3

In this video we see how to change the engine mount of the Citroen C3: first of all, you need to get the replacement part that you can find, for example, on Amazon with the code B0068MWCEG at the price of 21.28 euros, free delivery for Prime customers. First, we need to lift the car, because the mount is located underneath. Once the part is identified, unscrew the first pin with a 16 mm wrench, in the second there is also a nut; remove it and pull out the mount, which is very worn. Place the new one in its place, where you just need to insert the pin in the front and the bolt in the back to put everything back in place. Replace also the tie rod ball joint. This can be found on eBay with the code 254469937675 at the price of 25.99 euros + 9.99 euros for shipping. Here we will need to remove the right rear wheel. You will need a 17 mm socket wrench to remove the pin head. With a pry bar, lever pushing the ball joint down - perhaps helping with a little WD-40. Remove the screws from the pin. Remove the ball joint and replace it with the new one, which comes with 3 hex head bolts, which we will place in their place. Put the screw in the pin and here too the job is done. Put the wheel back on and lower the car.

How do I unlock the automatic transmission of the BMW 3 Series?

In order to unlock the automatic transmission of the BMW 3 Series, the Start / Stop button and the lever release button must be pressed at the same time. This procedure will allow the car gearbox to be unlocked for about 15 minutes, so that in the event of an engine failure, the car can still be moved. It may be necessary to repeat the operation more than once for its success. After unlocking the gearbox, it can return to its original state by simply waiting for the aforementioned 15 minutes, or by pushing the release lever forward for a few seconds.
