Skoda Octavia - Video tutorial

Model: Skoda Octavia NX, MK 4 - Years 2019-2024
Part: Checks and maintenance
Operation: How to open the locked trunk door in the Skoda Octavia Estate?

In the Skoda Octavia Estate, it can happen that the tailgate of the trunk gets stuck, for example due to a malfunction in the control or the lock actuator. In these cases, it is still possible to perform an emergency opening of the tailgate by following the simple procedure shown in this tutorial. First, we open the rear doors, then we lower the backrest of the sofa completely and go inside the luggage compartment. Then, we locate the small door located in the central area of the lower edge, unhook it, and using a flat-tip screwdriver, we release the lock.

Handbrake adjustment on Ford Ecosport

First remove the plastic profile at the base of the gear lever. To do this, slightly widen the side edges and carefully lift it to release it. There is no need to remove it completely, just move it forward to avoid bother. Now remove the plastic center console around the handbrake by first working from the rear to release it and lifting it until the brake lever passes. Also in this case it is not necessary to remove it completely but, paying attention to the connected cables, it can be stowed in front of the passenger seat. At this point we notice that at the base of the handbrake lever, on the front, we find a nut. By acting on it, with a 10 wrench, we can adjust the brake force, increasing it by turning the nut clockwise, or decreasing it by turning it counterclockwise. Once adjusted, the center console can be repositioned first, pressing lightly to engage it, and then the profile of the gearbox base.
