Mercedes Classe A - Video tutorial

Model: Mercedes Classe A W168 - Years 1997-2004
Part: Central tunnel
Operation: How to disassemble the central tunnel of the Mercedes A-Class.

In this guide, we will see the main instructions that will allow us to disassemble and replace the center console of the Mercedes Classe A. First of all, we get into the car and start by removing the cover of the gear lever, levering on the sides. After that, we remove the gear knob and unscrew the fixing screws that we find on the rear cup holder of the center console, as shown in the video. At this point, we proceed to release and remove the entire center console, replacing it with the new one. All that's left is to reassemble everything, applying the reverse procedure!

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.
