Jaguar Xk - Video tutorial

Model: Jaguar Xk MK 1 - Years 1996-2006
Part: Central tunnel
Operation: Removal of center console on Jaguar XK8

In this video tutorial we will see the basic instructions to be able to disassemble the components of the center console on a Jaguar XK8. First of all, let's get inside the car and remove the gear lever cover; for lighthouse we pry the sides with something very thin, as shown in the video. At this point we unscrew the screws that we find under the cover of the gearbox and remove the plastic of the central tunnel; unscrew the fixing screws of the latter to remove it. We just have to follow the video to the end for the disassembly of the air conditioning controls!

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.
