Ford Focus - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Focus MK 3 - Years 2011-2018
Part: Bodywork
Operation: How to remove the spoiler from the car

Usually, the spoiler was fixed with putty or silicone by the body shop. The guide shows you how to remove it without damaging the paint or cracking everything. If there is space between the spoiler and the sheet where it is fixed to insert a steel cable (to be used as a "mastic saw"), that is used to separate the two glued parts. If there is no space you have to start cutting the putty and pull until the aileron comes off. After removing the spoiler, proceed with the cutter very carefully to remove portions of glue as long as possible, without damaging or scratching the paint.

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.
