Mercedes Classe C - Video tutorial

Model: Mercedes Classe C W203 - Years 2000-2007
Part: Gear Shift Knob
Operation: How to replace the knob on the Mercedes C-Class

How to replace the Mercedes C knob boot? Let's see the disassembly of the cap. We detach the frame of the leather cap from above the central tunnel, unscrew the plastic that blocks the knob. We take the knob in our hands and rotate it to the left and right until it is removed from the shift rod. We assemble the frame of the central tunnel to the new cover cap, take the new knob and insert it into the rod on the central tunnel, tighten the same in the rod; we mount the new leather cap above the central tunnel. We test with the movement of the rod on the central tunnel the correct assembly of the knob.

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.
