Ford Focus - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Focus MK 2, Focus 2 - Years 2004-2011
Part: Diesel filter
Operation: How to replace the diesel fuel filter on a Ford Focus 1.6 TDCi MK2 version.

Let's see how to change the fuel filter on a Ford Focus 1.6 TDCI MK2 version, using a syringe as a vacuum. First, we clean any residue with a compressed air can. We remove the connectors and slide out the filter. In the meantime, we will have obtained the filter, perhaps finding it on Amazon with the code B00AYHJB68 and a price of 27.87 euros, including delivery charges. We put the new filter back in place, reconnecting the electrical connectors. We tighten the screws to 8 Nm. Now we will fill the filter using a syringe; of course, it will take several pumps (in this specific case, it took 14). Now let's try to start the vehicle. Everything is fine!

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.
