Kia Optima / K5 - Video tutorial

Model: Kia Optima / K5 MK 3, TF - Years 2010-2015
Part: Seat
Operation: How to remove the rear seats in the KIA Optima?

In this tutorial we can see how to remove the rear seats in the KIA Optima, an extremely simple and quick operation. First of all, we open the trunk door, then we pull towards us the two levers indicated in order to lower the backrests. We then locate the indicated fixing bolts, unscrew them using a 13mm hex key, and detach both backrests from their brackets. At this point, all that remains is to unscrew the remaining fixing screws, separate the seat from the base, and install the replacement parts following exactly 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.
