How to Replace Car Shock Absorbers

Model: Renault Espace MK 5 - Years 2015-2022
Part: Shocks

If your car has covered more than 62,000 miles, you will need to replace the shock absorbers. These components help to absorb the vehicle's bumps and increase safety while cornering. Lift the left side of the car with a jack and then remove the wheel, ensuring you take off all four bolts that hold it in place. Next, open the bonnet by operating the appropriate lever and remove all four screws located above the shock absorber. Then, remove the two screws on the driveshaft and also the one on the stabiliser that runs parallel to the shock absorber. The shock absorber will then come out on its own.

How to Remove the Interior Light of a Mini

Remove the interior light of a Mini: use a screwdriver or plastic lever to pry between the cover and the light itself (avoid damaging the headlining), pull the cover out from the panel and disconnect the power connector after removing it. Replace the damaged bulb with a new one (same size and voltage). Refit the light into its housing (push it in with your hands until the metal clips are fully locked). Test the light's functionality before completely refitting the piece.
