Mercedes Classe C - Video tutorial

Model: Mercedes Classe C W204 - Years 2007-2013
Part: Gear Shift Knob
Operation: Removing the gear knob on Mercedes C-Class

Is the gear knob on Mercedes C-Class damaged? Let's see how it replaces. We disconnect the frame of the leather cap with a plastic lever; lift the cap well and unhook the piece of plastic that blocks the knob. We take the knob in our hands and remove it from the shift rod. To carry out the assembly we take the new knob and insert it into the rod on the central tunnel, we tighten the same in the rod (we block with plastic) we assemble the new leather cap with the clips. We test with the movement of the rod on the central tunnel if we have correctly assembled all the pieces.

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.
