Renault Kadjar parking brake problem

Model: Renault Kadjar MK 1 - Years 2015-2022
Part: Parking brake

We can see in this video how to solve the problem of the parking brake of the Renault Kadjar, where the switch stopped working, and the only way to apply or release the brake was to turn the car on and off. The best solution seemed to be to replace the faulty switch. We can find it new on Amazon for example, with the code B09Z2M68FH at the price of 66.66 euros + delivery costs of 1.99 euros. Using a flat-head screwdriver, or a spudger, we lift the top part of the handle: underneath there are 2 bolts that we will remove; we pull off the bottom part of the handle and the shiny black trims come off; again we pass the spudger underneath and the trims will come off, slide it underneath and twist it to pop off the top plastic part. It is also necessary to lift the front part of the storage compartment. Once the top part is free, we lift up and disconnect the plug from the parking brake switch, unscrew the two bolts holding it in place, connect the new switch and try to see if it works.

Timing Belt Replacement on Audi Q5

The timing belt on the Audi Q5 has reached its mileage limit, so what should you do? Let's go through the removal of the belts on the Q5. Open and lift the hood of the engine, then remove the engine soundproofing panel. Once these steps are completed, remove the plastic covers of the belts located on the left side of the engine. Loosen the second tensioner and slide the belt out of its seat. After installing the new belt, use a wrench to install the tensioner pulley, and tighten it until the belt has the correct tension (install both belts). Reinstall the covering plastics. Start and test the Audi Q5 engine.
