Volkswagen Polo - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Polo Polo V, MK V, 6R, Polo 5, MK 5 - Years 2009-2017
Part: Headlight
Operation: Replace the Volkswagen Polo headlights

Does the headlight of our car need to be changed? Let's see how the front headlight of the Polo is removed. We raise the front hood to access the headlight, then we secure with the rod. We unscrew the locking pins on the headlight bar with a socket wrench or cordless screwdriver. We detach the lamp holders from the headlight and extract the same from the car body. We fit the new headlight with new bulbs if damaged and (always suitable type and size). To finish the assembly we just have to fix the clamping screws. We test the operation of the headlight bulbs.

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.
