How to remove the door cover panel? Let's see the disassembly of the cover panel of the Mini Cooper S. We remove the inner armrest placed above the interior handle (door panel), with a screwdriver we go to unscrew all the fastening screws above the door panel. We pry a plastic lever around the door opening handle frame, then remove the reflector cap on the door panel. We detach all the plastic fastening clips and remove the cover panel. We replace the cover panel with a new one if it is damaged.

When to Replace the Timing Chain on a Nissan X-Trail 2.0 dCi

The timing system on this Nissan model uses a chain rather than a belt: there is no specific maintenance schedule for this type of timing system as there is for a timing belt, which should be replaced every 75,000 miles or 5 years; the chain, operating constantly in an oil bath, does not suffer from the usual wear and deterioration issues. With regular maintenance, it generally does not need replacing; however, it may stretch or the sliding pads may wear out, causing noise, especially during cold start: in this case, it will need replacing, usually occurring at a mileage exceeding 124,000 miles.
