Volkswagen Polo - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Polo Polo 4, MK 4, Polo IV, 9N, MK IV - Years 2001-2009
Part: Headlight
Operation: Replace the headlight of the Volkswagen Polo

To replace the front headlight of the car, it is necessary to follow these steps: open the bonnet and first unscrew the two fixing screws of the front mask, after which release the clips that secure the air intake flap at the bottom of the brakes. Then unscrew the fixing screws of the mudguard and all the screws that support the bumper. Once all the components of the body have been disassembled, it will be possible to access the fixing screws of the headlight and proceed with their disassembly (these are four screws placed above and below the headlight itself). At that point it will be possible to remove the optical unit not before having unhooked the power supply connector.

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.
