In this video tutorial, you will learn how to remove the driver side front door panel of a Mercedes A-Class W169. First, open the front door and gather your Torx wrenches. Next, remove the triangular plastic cover located behind the mirror by prying it off, then take off the grab handle cover and remove the screw underneath with a Torx screwdriver.

Now, remove the side screws of the panel, if present. You can now start to detach the panel: pry on the sides to release it; finally, disconnect the electrical connector at the back of the panel to fully remove it!

Hello everyone! Today, I will explain how to reset the important AdBlue additive warning light on your Nissan Qashqai. Reset via the dashboard menu: turn on the car and ensure the instrument cluster is active. Scroll through the menu until you find the option “Service” or “AdBlue”. Select the “Reset” option and confirm. To top up the AdBlue level, open the tank flap and use the supplied nozzle to refill the AdBlue fluid with the engine off. Once the car is turned off and back on, the warning light should disappear if the refill was successful. Good luck.
