Ford S Max - Video tutorial

Model: Ford S Max MK 1 - Years 2006-2016
Part: Diesel filter
Operation: Ford S-Max 2.0 TDCi diesel filter replacement

In this video tutorial we will see how to remove and replace the diesel filter of a Ford S.Max 2.0 TDCi. First we go to open the bonnet and remove the plastic protection of our diesel filter, unscrewing the screws; then we are going to disconnect the diesel inlet and outlet pipe, pressing on the clamps and pulling. At this point we are going to unscrew our filter with a socket wrench until it is extracted, as shown in the video; we just have to replace it with the new one, of the right type, inserting it correctly and paying attention to the gasket.

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.
