Model: Mercedes Classe A W177 - Years 2018-2026
Part: Checks and maintenance

The instructions in this guide will show us how to open the hood of the Mercedes A-Class, as well as the CLA. First, let's get inside the vehicle and start by pulling the red lever located at the bottom on the driver's side, under the steering wheel; then, we move to the front of the hood, where we will release the lever of the locking mechanism and then lift the hood, as shown in the video. At this point, secure the prop rod if the hood is not held up by hydraulic struts; gently lower the hood to close it!

How to Repair the Key Spring of the Peugeot 207?

Over time, frequent use of the key's flip mechanism in the vehicle, dozens of times a day, inevitably leads to wear of the internal spring. As shown in this video, replacing the spring is quite simple and takes little time. After opening the casing halfway, first position the key, then the spring housing, and finally insert the spring into the previously mentioned housing. Close the casing by rotating it clockwise, ensuring all components fit perfectly, and test the key's flip mechanism.
