Volkswagen Polo - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Polo Polo 4, MK 4, Polo IV, 9N, MK IV - Years 2001-2009
Part: Antenna
Operation: Pole antenna replacement

Let's see the replacement of the antenna and the fixing base of a Volkswagen Polo. We open the tailgate of the car, pry between the plastic covering and the roof panel (without breaking the covering), we pull the plastic cover out from above the panel. We move the cover panel and unscrew the tightening screws under the antenna support (placed between the sheet metal and the support). We mount the new support on the car roof (we screw the pin with the screwdriver until it is completely locked). We test the correct functioning of the antenna once the assembly is finished.

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.
