Volkswagen Tiguan - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Tiguan AD, MK 2, BW - Years 2016-2024
Part: Antenna
Operation: Repair of the Volkswagen Tiguan shark fin.

If you have ever entered a garage and accidentally taken off the antenna on the roof (also known as the "shark fin") of your Volkswagen Tiguan, this is the video for you. First, we thoroughly clean the roof of the car and remove the electrical connector. In the meantime, we will have obtained this extraordinary liquid plastic welder, with the code B01MR7J5ZX, which will be used to reattach the broken connector tabs that were damaged when the garage door hit them. Then, to access the electrical part, we need to gently open the car's ceiling from the rear, just enough to reach the internal connector. After applying adhesive silicone to the bottom part of the shark fin, we enter from the inside and put the central fixing screw back in place. Now we can reconnect the electrical part. It's time to use the liquid plastic welder to reattach the plastic tabs that were previously broken. Now we can put the car's ceiling back in its seals. Job done.

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.
