Volkswagen Polo - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Polo Polo V, MK V, 6R, Polo 5, MK 5 - Years 2009-2017
Part: Checks and maintenance
Operation: Removal of the fuel tank cap of the Volkswagen Polo

If the tank cap fails to ensure a seal, it must be replaced with a new assembly that includes the rubber cap and the flap. To do this, open the flap and unscrew the screw on the left near the spring pin with an Allen key, unscrew the cap, and, with your hands, apply force on the left side to detach the rubber frame. Once detached, release the rubber cap from the spout by rotating it to the left, remove the entire assembly, including the drain hose. Install the new assembly: first insert the hose, then, starting from the right side, insert it into its seat, make the rubber adhere to the spout, and finally tighten the locking screw.

How do you adjust the clutch cable on the Kia Picanto?

To be able to adjust the clutch cable of the Kia Picanto you need to open the hood so that you have access to the components inside the engine compartment: in order to reach the cable you will need to remove some components on the right side, such as the battery and the air filter. Below them you will find the clutch cable, which will have to be adjusted by screwing or loosening the bolt placed at the end of the cable. This will make the pedal harder or softer; after the adjustment, it will be possible to assemble all the components by closing the hood.
