Volkswagen Golf - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Golf MK 4, Golf IV, Golf 4 - Years 1997-2003
Part: Engine
Operation: How do you remove the engine cover panel on the Volkswagen Golf?

In order to remove the engine cover panel on the Volkswagen Golf, you need to open the hood so that you can access the components located inside the engine compartment. Here, you will be able to pry on the left side of the engine block to release the clips that secure the cover on the left side. You will then need to perform the same procedure with the clips on the right side. This way, the old cover panel can be detached and the new one can be properly inserted and secured.

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.
