Mercedes Classe C - Video tutorial

Model: Mercedes Classe C W203 - Years 2000-2007
Part: Headlight
Operation: Headlight regeneration instructions

Due to the action of atmospheric agents and in particular of the sun's rays, of the chemical agents of the car wash but also of the aging of the material itself, the headlights tend to yellow and become opaque: it is possible to make them go back to spending by carrying out a correct polishing. Start by protecting the surrounding parts with paper tape, wet sand the headlight with very fine sandpaper (2000-3000) until it is completely opaque; at this point carry out a first polishing with enough abrasive and a sheep's wool pad and then finish with the machine polish and the appropriate pad. The lighthouse will shine again as if it were new.

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.
