Volkswagen Polo - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Polo Polo 4, MK 4, Polo IV, 9N, MK IV - Years 2001-2009
Part: Outside rearview mirror
Operation: How to replace the outside rearview mirror

Changing the rearview mirror of your car is easier than expected, all you need is a little patience, a few screwdrivers and torx keys. First of all it is necessary to open the door and lower the window to be able to work in peace and at the same time on the outside and inside of the car. The plastic panel and the fixing screws must be removed. This will allow you to extract the old mirror and insert the new one. The new one will be inserted into the slot and positioned with the old one, so that we can replace the screws that we had removed and stored previously.

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.
