Replacing the Gear Knob on a Ford Focus

Model: Ford Focus MK 3 - Years 2011-2018
Part: Shift knob

Do you want to remove the gear knob from your Focus? Do you want to replace the knob? Let’s see how to do it. Take the knob in your hands and rotate it to the left until you can remove it from the gear lever (unscrew the knob). Use a plastic lever to disconnect the leather gaiter frame (if it needs replacing). Take the new knob and slide it onto the lever on the centre console, tightening the new knob until it is fully secured on the control lever. Finally, test the movement of the lever on the centre console to ensure the knob is correctly fitted. Fit a knob with the same thread.

How to Check the Oil Level on a Jeep Renegade?

To check the oil level on a Jeep Renegade, you need to open the bonnet to access the components inside the engine bay: on the lower left side of the engine block, you will find the dipstick for checking the level. This should be pulled out and thoroughly cleaned with a cloth: once cleaned, reinsert it back into its tube and pull it out immediately after. This way, you can check that the oil mark is between the minimum and maximum levels; finally, you can place the dipstick back in its tube.
