Mini - Video tutorial

Model: Mini Mini R50, R52, R53 - Years 2001-2007
Part: V-belt
Operation: How to replace the serpentine belt of a MINI R53

In this video we can see how to replace the serpentine belt of a Mini R53: to reach the belt we need to make some space by removing some components. Now we put the key in the hole to loosen the belt, but we still need to remove the wheel and the wheel arch to better access the belt from the bottom; we can then remove it very quickly; if we don't have a technical drawing on hand to put it back in place, it would have been a good idea to take a photo to make sure to put it back in the right way: also check that the belt has a direction of rotation, to make sure to place it in the correct direction. Remove the key that was used to loosen the belt and turn it clockwise.

Replace the steering angle sensor on the Volkswagen Golf 5

When the steering angle sensor malfunction warning light comes on, it may need to be replaced as follows: first remove the steering wheel and the lower steering wheel guard by removing the three fixing screws. The steering sensor is located just below the steering column. To release it you need to have a small screwdriver and insert it into the hole on the front, push the screwdriver all the way down until the clips at the bottom are released. Next, pull down on the back of the card containing the sensor and disengage it from the steering column. At that point take the new card and reposition it, after which proceed backwards to reassemble the various components.
