Volkswagen Polo - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Polo MK V, MK 5, Polo V, Polo 5, 6R - Years 2009-2017
Part: Crankshaft RPM sensor
Operation: Volkswagen Polo 1.2 camshaft sensor replacement guide

Today, in this short and simple guide, let's see the instructions that will allow us to disassemble and replace the camshaft sensor of the Volkswagen Polo 1.2. First of all, we open the bonnet of our car and start locating our rpm sensor located on the camshaft (it is located above the cylinder head cover); then we go to disconnect the electrical power connector, pressing on the tab. At this point we unscrew the screw that we find at the base to remove and replace the sensor with the new one, applying the reverse procedure for reassembly!

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.
