Operation: how to replace the engine air filter on a Volkswagen Polo

Let's see how to replace the engine ventilation filter on a Volkswagen Polo: we open the car door, pull up the engine compartment opening lever at the bottom left of the dashboard and lift up the front hood, we secure the same with the metal rod. We remove the soundproofing panel of the engine (where the filter is placed); we open the ventilation kit (unscrew the fastening screws), uncover the box panel and extract the worn air filter. We insert a new filter in the dedicated housing (making it adhere well around the walls). Finally, we reassemble the air box panel and close the front hood at the end of the maintenance.

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.
