How to replace a damaged tire on a Ford Focus

Model: Ford Focus MK 3 - Years 2011-2018
Part: Wheel

Let's see in this video how to replace the damaged tire on a Ford Focus. We open the luggage compartment and take the wheel removal kit which includes: jack, jack lever, screwdriver, bolt wrench, telescopic wrench, spare wheel. We position the jack under the grip point of the car, that is under the most rigid part of the frame in order to bend the sheet metal due to the too much weight, lift the car a little and loosen the wheel pins. Now we lift the car with the jack lever, unscrew the pins and pull the wheel away from the hub seat. We mount the new rim on the hub (the spare wheel is positioned under the car body, bring it to the ground with the handy kit placed in the luggage compartment) with the respective pins. Always remember to store the assembly kit with all its parts in the luggage compartment.

Installation of Upgraded Intercooler Radiator with Pipes

Lift the vehicle on suitable axle stands, remove the front wheels, and then the front bumper and grille. Proceed to remove the front headlights; drain the coolant, remove the intercooler radiator and the hoses connecting it to the intake system. Position the new intercooler radiator in the grille, temporarily securing it with cable ties, and mark with a marker the part of the metal that needs to be removed to allow the new hoses to pass through. Cut the marked portion of metal and apply a gasket to the edge. Remove the inner cover of the bumper and position it near the radiator to identify any interfering parts to eliminate: again, apply a gasket to the edge of the cut. Create brackets for securing the new radiator and proceed with the installation of the connecting pipes from the radiator to the intake, shaping and connecting them appropriately. Finally, reassemble the bumper, headlights, and grille.
