Vauxhall Tigra - Video tutorial

Model: Vauxhall Tigra MK 2 - Years 2003-2009
Part: Hydraulic pistons
Operation: How to remove the hydraulic pistons of the tailgate of an Opel Tigra

Let's start by opening the tailgate. Once opened, we will have an eye on the two hydraulic pistons deployed. These two pistons are secured with two metal clamps each. Next to these clamps there is a slot, in which we will insert a slotted screwdriver, and by levering, we will remove the metal clamps from their seat. At this point we are going to remove one piston at a time. Please keep the tailgate raised when removing the pistons, as it will no longer be able to support itself. By doing so, we will have successfully finished disassembling the hydraulic pistons of our Opel Tigra.

How do you adjust the clutch cable on the Kia Picanto?

To be able to adjust the clutch cable of the Kia Picanto you need to open the hood so that you have access to the components inside the engine compartment: in order to reach the cable you will need to remove some components on the right side, such as the battery and the air filter. Below them you will find the clutch cable, which will have to be adjusted by screwing or loosening the bolt placed at the end of the cable. This will make the pedal harder or softer; after the adjustment, it will be possible to assemble all the components by closing the hood.
