How to Replace a Damaged Tyre on a Ford Focus

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

In this video, learn how to replace a damaged tyre on a Ford Focus. Open the boot and take out the wheel removal kit, which includes: jack, jack lever, screwdriver, wheel nut wrench, telescopic wrench, and spare wheel. Position the jack under the jacking point of the vehicle, which is under the sturdiest part of the chassis to avoid bending the metal due to excessive weight. Lift the car slightly and loosen the wheel nuts. Now, raise the car with the jack lever, unscrew the nuts, and pull the wheel off the hub. Mount the new rim onto the hub (the spare wheel is located under the vehicle body; lower it to the ground using the handy kit in the boot) with the respective nuts. Always remember to store the removal kit with all its parts back in the boot.
