Where is the starter motor located in the Volkswagen Jetta?

Model: Volkswagen Jetta MK 6, A6 - Years 2010-2018
Part: Starter motor

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.

How to change the time on a Toyota Yaris

In this video we see how to change the time on a Toyota Yaris, specifically when it comes to switching from daylight saving time to standard time and vice versa. We go to the multifunction screen and press "settings": from there we go to press the clock, simply click on daylight saving time, and the clock will change the time for us, without doing anything else. All we want to do is just adjust the time format to 12 or 24 hours, as is customary in the area where we live: for example in Anglo-Saxon countries it is common to set the time to 12 hours, while in the European Union it is normally set to 24 hours.
