Operation: How to replace the diesel filter on the Ford Focus 1.8 TDCI

Let's find out in this video how to remove and replace the diesel filter on the Ford Focus first series, but also on the Mondeo, with 1.8 TDCI engine. First of all we open the bonnet of our car and start by removing the upper bracket of the diesel filter, unscrewing the two fixing screws; then we go to disconnect the diesel pipes by pressing on the side tabs, as shown in the video. At this point we disconnect the electrical connector and unscrew our filter, removing it and replacing the cartridge that we find inside; then let's 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.
