How to Remove the Bonnet Strut on a Volkswagen Passat

Model: Volkswagen Passat B6, 3C - Years 2005-2010
Part: Body

Before starting, open the bonnet of your Volkswagen Passat. Begin by unfastening and removing the two clips that secure the strut to the bonnet and the base, using a flathead screwdriver to pry them off. Next, dislodge and extract the strut from its housing. By doing this, you will have freed the strut itself. At this point, you can remove the bonnet strut from your Volkswagen Passat. Once you have completed this step, the disassembly will be finished, and you will be free to install the new strut.

How to change the time on a Toyota Yaris

In this video we see how to change the time on a Toyota Yaris, specifically when it comes to switching from daylight saving time to standard time and vice versa. We go to the multifunction screen and press "settings": from there we go to press the clock, simply click on daylight saving time, and the clock will change the time for us, without doing anything else. All we want to do is just adjust the time format to 12 or 24 hours, as is customary in the area where we live: for example in Anglo-Saxon countries it is common to set the time to 12 hours, while in the European Union it is normally set to 24 hours.
