Ford Focus - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Focus MK 1 - Years 1998-2004
Part: Bearing
Operation: Front wheel bearing replacement

If the wheel has severe side play and unusual noise the problem is with the bearings so get spare parts and replace them. For this job you need a special 29mm wrench to remove the hub bolt. Raise the car, secure it and remove the wheel. Remove the whole brake drum to free the shaft by unscrewing the bolt on the hub. Thoroughly clean from old grease. Reposition the new drum with bearing, after having greased it well, and carefully tighten the bolt on the hub with a torque wrench. Refit the wheel.

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.
