Volkswagen Polo - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Polo Polo 4, MK 4, Polo IV, 9N, MK IV - Years 2001-2009
Part: Air filter
Operation: Engine air filter replacement

Cleaning the engine air filter is absolutely essential for the correct operation of the engine, i.e. to ensure the right amount of air necessary for the engine, but above all its cleaning: the filter is in fact able to retain any solid particles which, if they end up in the intake, they could damage the engine. The filter box is located right at the top of the engine: just unscrew the fixing screws of the cover, extract the old filter, remove any residual dirt inside the box and insert the new one making the gasket adhere correctly. In addition to replacement, it is also good practice to dust the filter from time to time.

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.
