Model: Ford Focus MK 2, Focus 2 - Years 2004-2011
Part: Fuel filter

This video shows how to remove and replace the fuel filter on your car. First, locate where the fuel filter is situated on your car, in this case, under the floor beneath the rear seats, and then proceed to extract it by closing the fuel supply line to prevent fuel leaks. Once you have removed the two hoses connecting to the fuel filter, extract the filter and unscrew it from its mounting position to install a new one. Once installed, ensure that it is fitted the right way round and that everything functions correctly.
