Mazda Bongo Brawny - Video tutorial

Model: Mazda Bongo Brawny - Years 1995-2005
Part: Door
Operation: How does the tailgate stay open when the gas struts are unloaded on the Mazda Bongo Brawny

When the car starts to be a few years old and the gas shock absorbers that allow the tailgate to be kept open have run out, it is possible to solve the problem with the use of two aluminum profiles measuring 20 mm by 20 mm which must be cut to a length of 21.5 cm. Then obtain a piece of plastic with one side provided with adhesive and cut small 20 x 20 mm squares to size to be positioned at the ends of the aluminum profile. At this point we can try to open the tailgate and position them on the shock absorber stem, in this way the tailgate itself will remain open in safety.

How to open the bonnet of the Volkswagen Polo

Let's see in this short and simple guide the instructions that will allow us to open the bonnet of the Volkswagen Polo. First of all we open the front door, on the driver's side, and start pulling the opening lever of the engine hood, in order to open the lock; then let's move to the front of the vehicle and unhook the tab that we find on the central part, above the manufacturer's emblem, as shown in the video. At this point we block the bonnet with the lateral rod; then we accompany the bonnet down to close it again!
