Cleaning the MAF sensor of the Ford Focus MK3

Model: Ford Focus MK 3 - Years 2011-2018
Part: Checks and maintenance

If the engine performance of the Ford Focus has become irregular and starting is difficult, the cause may be a dirty MAF sensor. To clean it, open the hood of the engine, locate the sensor near the air filter, disconnect the electrical connectors and loosen the clamp on the outlet pipe. Remove the filter box, turn it over and unscrew the two screws holding the sensor body, unscrew the sensor from the bracket and clean it with a specific spray detergent. Wait for the sensor to dry and reassemble all the parts by reversing the operations.

How to Replace the Gear Shift Gaiter of the Honda CR-V

You can purchase an aftermarket gear shift cover complete with a knob, made of leather with coloured stitching. The disassembly is quite straightforward: start by unscrewing the gear shift knob by twisting it. Next, detach the trim at the base of the gear lever by prying along the edges. Then, remove the chrome trim that holds the gaiter in place, peeling off the leather edges from the plastic support. Apply new double-sided adhesive to the plastic tabs to insert and stick the edges of the new gaiter, securing it with the chrome trim. Finally, fit the gaiter complete with the knob onto the gear lever, securing it with the appropriate screws and reattaching the trim to the tunnel support.
