Model: Volkswagen Jetta MK 6, A6 - Years 2010-2018
Part: Checks and maintenance

This tutorial shows how to remove the ignition switch in a Volkswagen Golf, a task to perform in case of a malfunction or key blockage. First, unclip the upper cover of the steering column, then remove the lower cover by unscrewing the relevant screws. Next, locate the two large retaining rivets on both sides and remove them using a chisel. Once this is done, you can detach the entire unit from the column, disconnect the connector, and proceed with replacing the damaged component.

How to change the time on a Toyota Yaris

In this video we see how to change the time on a Toyota Yaris, specifically when it comes to switching from daylight saving time to standard time and vice versa. We go to the multifunction screen and press "settings": from there we go to press the clock, simply click on daylight saving time, and the clock will change the time for us, without doing anything else. All we want to do is just adjust the time format to 12 or 24 hours, as is customary in the area where we live: for example in Anglo-Saxon countries it is common to set the time to 12 hours, while in the European Union it is normally set to 24 hours.
