Vauxhall Astra - Video tutorial

Model: Vauxhall Astra Astra H - Years 2004-2010
Part: Seat
Operation: Guide to disassembling the rear seats of the Opel Astra

Today's guide will show us the useful procedure for disassembling and replacing the rear seats of the Opel Astra. First, we open the rear doors and start pulling the rear bench upwards with force, in order to detach and remove it; then we proceed to unscrew all the screws we find on the base of the backrests if we also want to remove these, as shown in the video. At this point, if we want, we can proceed with the replacement or cleaning of the rear seats; all that's left is to put everything back in place, properly fixing the rear seats!

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.
