Volkswagen Passat - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Passat B7 - Years 2010-2014
Part: Thermostat
Operation: How do you replace the thermostat of the Volkswagen Passat?

In order to replace the thermostat of the Volkswagen Passat, you need to open the hood so that you can have access to the components in the engine compartment. On the right side, you will be able to locate the coolant passage pipe, which needs to be disconnected to access the underlying thermostat. The thermostat can now be extracted from its housing so that it can be replaced with a new spare part. After the replacement, you can reinsert the previously removed pipe, ensuring that everything is functioning properly.

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.
