Nissan Qashqai - Video tutorial

Model: Nissan Qashqai J11 - Years 2014-2022
Part: Grille
Operation: Installation of a front grille protection for the Nissan Qashqai.

In the Nissan Qashqai, like in many other cars, the lower part of the front grille does not provide sufficient protection against stones, putting radiators and sensors at risk. To overcome this issue, pre-formed additional grille kits are available on major e-commerce websites, which can be easily installed. For installation, tightening straps are provided, but once installed, they leave the heads visible. For a more aesthetically finished job, it is better to choose the smaller size, 3.6mm, which allows hiding the heads behind the fixing holes. Let's start by installing the grilles in the row below the license plate, passing the grilles behind the vertical bars of the grille and securing them with the straps. Moving on to the lower part, which has the radar sensors, to facilitate installation, we bend the top of the strap into a U shape. The remaining step is to install the grilles on the grille with the Nissan logo, for which the upper plate needs to be removed by unscrewing the screws and plastic pins.

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.
