Part: Checks and maintenance
Operation: How to open the stuck tailgate in the Hyundai I30?

In the Hyundai i30, it is possible for the trunk hatch to get stuck, for example due to a problem with the control button or the lock actuator. In these cases, we can still perform an emergency opening by following the simple procedure shown in this tutorial. First, open the rear doors, then lower the backrest of the seat by activating the corresponding lever. Next, position yourself inside the trunk, remove the small indicated door, and manually activate the lock. The trunk hatch will then be free to be opened.

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.
