Volkswagen Polo - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Polo MK III, Polo 3, MK 3, 6N, Polo III - Years 1994-2003
Part: Starter motor
Operation: How to change the starter motor of the Volkswagen Polo.

In this guide, we will see the steps that will allow us to disassemble and replace the starter motor of the Volkswagen Polo. First, we open the engine hood of our car and start by disconnecting our battery (also disconnecting one of the two terminals). After that, we will find our starter motor underneath, where we will unscrew its fixing screws (using a socket wrench) to remove it, as shown in the video. At this point, we disconnect the electrical wiring and then install the new starter motor, applying the reverse procedure!

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.
