Volkswagen Polo - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Polo Polo V, MK V, 6R, Polo 5, MK 5 - Years 2009-2017
Part: Airbags
Operation: Volkswagen Polo 6R airbag removal

In this video tutorial we will see how to remove the steering wheel airbag of a Volkswagen Polo 6R. First we get in the car and move the steering wheel as far towards us as possible from the adjustment lever. At this point we remove the upper plastic under the panel by hand and unhook it: then turn the steering wheel by a quarter and unscrew the screw and release the lever; at this point our airbag will automatically exit from the front. Don't forget to disconnect the connector; then proceed with the reassembly by carrying out the reverse procedure!

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.
