How to Replace the Coolant Reservoir on the Ford Focus?

Model: Ford Focus MK 3 - Years 2011-2018
Part: Antifreeze coolant

To remove the coolant reservoir on the Ford Focus, open the bonnet to locate the reservoir on the left side of the engine bay. The reservoir can be removed from its housing by disconnecting the hose connected at the front left: once the hose is disconnected, unclip the fastening clips of the reservoir so that it can be extracted from its seat. Once the old reservoir is removed, insert the new one, connecting and securing it properly in its place.
