How to Replace the Gear Knob on a Renault Clio 1

Model: Renault Clio Clio 1, MK 1 - Years 1990-1998
Part: Shift knob

In this brief video tutorial, you will see how to remove and replace the gear knob on a first series Renault Clio, following these simple steps. First, get inside the car and pull upwards on the gear knob, rotating it left and right to remove it; once removed, insert the new knob, applying sealant or securing it with a clip to the gaiter (this depends on the type of knob you choose to buy). It is recommended to secure it properly, without any play, to prevent it from rotating during driving.

How to Reset the Central Locking of the Volkswagen Golf 4?

If the central locking system of the Volkswagen Golf 4 is not working, it is likely necessary to reset the system: to do this, open the driver's door and detach the side panel of the dashboard next to the steering wheel. Under this panel, you will find the fuses, including the one for the central locking, which is indicated in the manual as number 14. To reset the system, remove this fuse from its housing, then reinsert it or replace it with a new one of the same amperage: this will reset the central locking system.
