How to Replace Shock Absorbers

Model: Renault Laguna MK 3, Laguna III, MK III, X91, Laguna 3 - Years 2007-2015
Part: Shocks

The purpose of shock absorbers is to slow down the movement of the suspension. If the car has covered many miles, they need to be replaced. They can be found at any auto parts store. To start the job, gather a compressor and a car, then unscrew all the bolts to remove the wheel. Next, open the bonnet and remove all the screws located above the shock absorber mount. Then, remove the two screws on the spindle and the one positioned on the stabiliser, which runs parallel to the "affected" shock absorber. You will notice that the shock absorber will come out very easily.

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.
