Volkswagen Passat - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Passat B6, 3C - Years 2005-2010
Part: Engine
Operation: Threading and replacement of head screws

If you have to redo the cylinder head of your engine, it will certainly be convenient, in some cases, to replace the screws of the latter as well. First, check which size and pitch are appropriate for threading the screws. Once you have identified the right pitch, proceed with the threading of each of the seats in which the head screws will be screwed. At the end of the work it is advisable to clean carefully, blowing away any debris and remnants of the thread with compressed air. Sprinkle the tips of the screws with thread locking paste and tighten the screws with the appropriate wrench according to the manufacturer's data and specifications. Car model: Volkswagen Passat 2. 0 TDI Tools required: threading machine, red thread brake paste, torque wrench

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.
