Operation: How to replace the headlight bulb on the Volkswagen Polo?

In order to replace the headlight bulb of the Volkswagen Polo, the hood must be opened to gain access to the engine compartment. You will need to disconnect the connector attached to the rear of the headlight and loosen the screws located at the top. In this way the optical unit can be extracted from its housing and it will be possible to remove the protective cap of its internal part. This will allow you to remove the old bulb from its seat and replace it with a new spare part. Once the new bulb has been inserted, it will be possible to close the headlight with the cover and install it inside its housing.

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.
