Land Rover Discovery - Video tutorial

Model: Land Rover Discovery MK 3, L319, LR3, Discovery 3 - Years 2004-2010
Part: Gearbox
Operation: How do I replace the gear knob on Land Rover Discovery?

In order to replace the Land Rover Discovery gear knob, it is necessary to lift the lower part of the headset, disengaging its fixing clips so that it can be removed from the center console. Then you will need to grab the actual knob, pulling it, in order to remove it from the gear lever. Once the old knob and the relative boot have been removed, it will be possible to insert the new knob, fitting it on the gear lever and inserting the fixing clips of the lower part of the boot, inside the special seats in the center console.

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.
