Front Shock Absorber Replacement

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

Remove the affected wheel and place your vehicle on axle stands for easier access. Now, undo the bolt located at the end of the lower spring to detach the arm at the back. Also, remove the pipes connected to the strut. Next, undo the bolts securing the strut to the hub and remove them, ensuring the hub does not fall. Remove the wiper blades and the sealing rubber, as you will need to take off the panel between the bonnet and the windscreen. Now, you can undo the bolt at the top of the shock absorber, allowing you to extract it easily. For reassembly, simply follow the steps in reverse.

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.
