How to access the secret menu of a Mini Cooper?

Model: Mini Mini R52, R50, R53 - Years 2001-2007
Part: Dashboard

In this video we will see how to access the Mini Cooper secret menu. First we turn the ignition key until we have the screen with the kilometers. Press and hold the button next to the odometer: at this point we will see the number of kilometers reset and then a specific message â € œtestâ € that brings us to the menu that interests us. From here, leaving the button, we will see a number appear every time we press the same button. What interests us is the number 19, from which, by pressing again, we access the secret menu. Once inside, scrolling through the various numbers, you will be able to access various contents, such as the temperature of the coolant.

How to Remove the Front Shock Absorber on a Peugeot 406

How to remove the front shock absorber on a Peugeot 406? The first step is to lift the bonnet and secure it with the prop rod. Use a socket wrench to unscrew the shock absorber mounting bolts (engine bay), lift the car on a column lift and remove the front wheel. Unscrew the shock absorber mounting bolts at the wheel hub (detach the brake line clips with a screwdriver). Unscrew the bolts on the side, then remove the shock absorber from its housing (place a support under the bar). Compare the old part with the new one and prepare for installation. Fit the new shock absorber to the car, working in reverse order.
