Operation: How to disassemble the car radio of a Volkswagen Golf?

To disassemble the radio of a Volkswagen Golf, start by removing the frame surrounding the radio. Use appropriate tools to lift it gently. Once the frame is removed, you can access the screws holding the radio in place. The screws may be Torx type, so make sure you have the right tool to unscrew them. Unscrew them carefully and keep them in a safe place. After removing the screws, the radio should be ready to be extracted. Use the appropriate tools to release it from its housing, paying attention to the cables and connectors on the back. Once extracted, disconnect the connectors and cables to completely separate the radio from the car. Make sure to carefully store the screws and other removed components for reassembly.

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.
