Volkswagen Golf - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Golf Golf V, MK 5, Golf 5 - Years 2003-2008
Part: Car stereo
Operation: Removal of the Volkswagen car radio

Let's see how to proceed to remove the radio of the Volkswagen Golf in case we need to replace it. Using a plastic lever, we remove the coin holder and the airbag control, disconnecting the connector, on the sides of the hazard light switch, on the central panel. We unscrew the two screws that we will find under these housings, so we can remove the silver frame and rotate it upwards. Now we need to unscrew the four screws at the corners of the radio and we can slide the body of the device out of its seat, disconnect the electrical connector and the antenna plug. To reassemble it, proceed in reverse with the operations.

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.
