Ford Focus - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Focus MK 2, Focus 2 - Years 2004-2011
Part: Oil filter
Operation: Engine oil filter replacement on Ford Focus Mk2

Open the hood and put on the special support rod. Remove the plastic cover, as shown in the video. Raise the car as you need to work from below to remove the oil filter. Unscrew the tank cap and then the drain cap, so as to let the used oil out. At this point, the oil filter must simply be unscrewed: if the o-r is still good, remove it and use it on the new filter, otherwise change that as well (in this case, however, remember to lubricate it before putting it in place). Clean the engine oil filter container and top up with new oil. Reassemble everything.

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.
