Mercedes Classe C - Video tutorial

Model: Mercedes Classe C W204 - Years 2007-2013
Part: Seat
Operation: How to remove the front headrests in the Mercedes C-Class

The first thing to do to replace the front headrests in the Mercedes C-class is to push the seat forward to the stop and tilt the backrest forward. Now we remove the key from the panel and, sitting in the rear seat in correspondence with the front seat, we have to remove the panel on the back of the front seat itself. We do this by pulling the same in the lower part and, once the clips have been detached, slide the panel downwards. At the top, we see the 2 headrest rods inserted into their tracks. In the rod on the right there is the electrical connection for the electronic control of the headrest itself. We unplug. There is a metal mechanism (not visible) in the left shaft that needs to be removed. To do this, we partially remove the plastic finish and, with a screwdriver, we also remove the metal block. In this way we are able to remove the headrest from the tracks that hold it in position, being careful not to tear the electric wires at the right rod. To mount the new headrest, just carry out the same operations seen in the images, proceeding backwards.

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.
