Operation: How do you replace the starter motor on the Volkswagen Polo?

In order to replace the starter motor of the Volkswagen Polo, you need to go and open the bonnet in order to have access to the components inside the engine compartment. The starter motor will be located in the lower area of the engine compartment and to reach it it will be necessary to go and remove several components. Once these have been removed, it will be possible to access the motor which must be released from its housing and disconnected from the connectors so that a new one can be inserted. After the installation you will be able to mount all the removed components again.

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.
