Volkswagen Jetta - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Jetta A6, MK 6 - Years 2010-2018
Part: Starter motor
Operation: Where is the starter motor located in the Volkswagen Jetta?

In this video we can see where the starter motor is located in the Volkswagen Jetta and how to proceed in case we need to replace it, a relatively simple operation. As shown, the starter motor is located at about half height on the left side of the engine, looking at the vehicle frontally. To access it, we will first need to open the hood, then remove the air filter box and detach the power steering fluid reservoir from its support. To remove the starter motor, it will be sufficient to unscrew the four bolts indicated using both a 13mm socket wrench and a 17mm socket wrench. Make sure to work with the negative terminal of the battery disconnected.

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.
