Operation: How to replace the front wheel bearing on the Volkswagen Golf 6?

In order to replace the front wheel bearing of the Volkswagen Golf 6 you have to remove the wheel corresponding to the bearing to be replaced by unscrewing its fixing bolts. Once the wheel has been removed, it will be possible to disconnect the brake caliper by removing its pins; subsequently, the disc can also be removed by loosening the bolts and the wheel hub can also be removed by disconnecting the arms. At this point the bearing can be extracted from the hub and replaced with a new spare part; after replacement, all the other components can be mounted.

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.
