Vauxhall Astra - Video tutorial

Model: Vauxhall Astra Astra J - Years 2009-2016
Part: Engine oil
Operation: What does the message "code 82" indicate in the Opel Astra and how to remove it?

If the message "code 82" appears on the Opel Astra dashboard, it means that we have reached the interval for the engine oil and, therefore, we will need to have it replaced at our trusted workshop. Once this is done, we can manually remove the warning light by following the procedure shown in this tutorial. First of all, we insert the key and turn on the instrument panel, then we enter the menu through the appropriate button on the left lever, reach the screen related to the oil life, and hold down the "SET/CLR" button, located at the end of the same lever.

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.
