Mercedes Classe C - Video tutorial

Model: Mercedes Classe C W204 - Years 2007-2013
Part: Door panel
Operation: Removing the door panel Mercedes C-Class W216

Unscrew the six torx t15 that fix the silver side of the door, that is the one that "disappears" when we close it. Remove this plastic. Now remove the rounded plastic that hides behind the glove box when you close the door. To do this, you just need to pry with a plastic wedge (not iron, otherwise you will scratch everywhere). By doing this you will have released a torx t30 that you will have to unscrew. Then remove the plastic next to the window, again with the wedge, and remove the rubber behind it by hand. At this point, leveraging the lever all around the panel, you can detach it and disconnect the connectors.

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.
