Volkswagen Polo - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Polo Polo 4, MK 4, Polo IV, 9N, MK IV - Years 2001-2009
Part: Light bulb
Operation: How to replace the reverse light bulb in the Volkswagen Polo 4?

Replacing the reverse light bulb in the Volkswagen Polo mk4 requires the removal of the entire rear light, but as you can see from the attached video, it is a simple operation that does not need any special tools. First, we open the trunk lid and move the carpet near the lighthouse. We can see a hole in the bodywork where a lock nut is located, we proceed by unscrewing it by hand. We disconnect the connector and begin to gently pull the headlight from the lower external area. Removed the unit, in the back we can see four blocks that will simply be pressed inwards. At this point we will have removed the base with the bulbs anchored, we can then proceed with the replacement and reassembly following the reverse procedure.

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.
