Ford Focus - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Focus MK 2, Focus 2 - Years 2004-2011
Part: Diesel filter
Operation: How to replace the diesel filter on a Ford Focus

Before we can begin, we will have to open the hood of our Ford Focus. So let's start by removing the top engine cover, simply by pulling towards us. By doing so we will have reached the diesel filter. So let's proceed with unscrewing and removing the bolts that secure the metal filter cover, and then remove the cover itself. After that we will have to disconnect the two sleeves and the plug, simply by pulling. At this point we can remove the entire block of the filter. We then unscrew the upper part of the block, thus reaching the filter. Once we reach the diesel filter, we can remove it from the block, and we will have completed the disassembly. To mount the new filter and close everything, we will have to follow these steps in reverse, and we will have successfully completed the replacement.

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.
