Ford Focus - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Focus MK 2, Focus 2 - Years 2004-2011
Part: Gear Shift Knob
Operation: How to replace the gear knob on a Ford Focus

Let's see in this very short video tutorial how to replace the gear knob on a Ford Focus mk2 with manual transmission, model produced from 2004 to 2011. The operation to be performed is really very simple, we can do it by ourselves and in a few minutes, but now let's see the procedure. To start we lift the base of the gear knob boot, now we start unscrewing the knob counterclockwise, after which we detach the old knob from the boot and replace it with a new one. Now we just have to screw the new gear knob back together with its boot and we're done.

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.
