Ford Focus - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Focus MK 1 - Years 1998-2004
Part: Clutch
Operation: Removing the Ford Focus clutch

In this video we will see how to remove the flywheel and clutch of the Ford Focus 1.8 diesel. First you have to lift the car: after that, once you have detached the gear lever, you have to remove the drive shafts from underneath. Remove all screws and bolts holding the gearbox to be able to pull it down. To remove the gearbox, it must be detached from the shaft: to do so, simply turn it anticlockwise to be able to remove it. Now we will remove the clutch by unscrewing the bolts around it: at this point we will remove the flywheel by unscrewing the eight bolts that are around it!

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.
