Vauxhall Astra - Video tutorial

Model: Vauxhall Astra Astra G - Years 1998-2006
Part: Light bulb
Operation: How to replace the front headlight bulbs in the Opel Astra G?

Once the front hood hatch is opened and secured, we can proceed to remove the ties that secure the air intake pipe. This way, we can proceed to remove the pipe and all the fastening elements connected to it and the air filter box. It is necessary to completely remove the filter box in order to have easy access to the bulb holder, which we can finally extract at this point. We replace the burnt out bulbs and reattach all the elements that have been removed so far. We repeat the operation on the other headlight, if necessary.

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.
