Volkswagen Tiguan - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Tiguan 5N, MK 1 - Years 2007-2016
Part: Starter motor
Operation: How to remove the starter motor of a Volkswagen Tiguan

Before starting, we will have to open the front hood of our Volkswagen Tiguan. So let's start by disassembling and removing all the air filter block, disconnecting the sleeves and unscrewing the relative fixing screws. After that, we will have to disconnect the electrical connector that powers the starter motor, and then unscrew and remove the fixing bolts. By doing so, we will have freed the starter itself. At this point, we will have to extract the motor from the engine compartment of our Volkswagen Tiguan. When we have completed this step, we will have completed the disassembly.

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.
