How to change the direction of the airflow in a Nissan Vivaro.

Model: Vauxhall Vivaro MK 2 - Years 2014-2019
Part: Air vents

In this video, we can see how to fix the issue with the airflow that cannot be controlled by the air conditioning knobs in a Nissan Vivaro. Naturally, the same system applies to the Renault Trafic and the Nissan Primastar as well. First, we need to remove the lower dashboard cover, which also houses the gear lever. This will allow us to take off the air conditioning control panel, from which we will remove the cable that controls the airflow. Let's take it out and clean it thoroughly with WD-40, which will properly lubricate it. Then, we will put it back in place and check its functionality. Finally, we will close the panel and then the cover, and we're all set.

Installation of Upgraded Intercooler Radiator with Pipes

Lift the vehicle on suitable axle stands, remove the front wheels, and then the front bumper and grille. Proceed to remove the front headlights; drain the coolant, remove the intercooler radiator and the hoses connecting it to the intake system. Position the new intercooler radiator in the grille, temporarily securing it with cable ties, and mark with a marker the part of the metal that needs to be removed to allow the new hoses to pass through. Cut the marked portion of metal and apply a gasket to the edge. Remove the inner cover of the bumper and position it near the radiator to identify any interfering parts to eliminate: again, apply a gasket to the edge of the cut. Create brackets for securing the new radiator and proceed with the installation of the connecting pipes from the radiator to the intake, shaping and connecting them appropriately. Finally, reassemble the bumper, headlights, and grille.
