I love my old dinosaur ford fusion 2005 plate. It has never broken down and the engine still purrs like a newer car it even idles perfectly in winter , never spent a penny on anything mechanical , never had a c.v joint or bearings or cluch issues it has only ever had advisories to get tires replaced. Just passed its 20th consecutive m.o.t as sometimes i run it through a month early if i am busy that month its usually due for m.o.t. Bought it brand new get it serviced once a year which i do myself as i can trust myself , the greasemonkeys in the u.k are rarely trustworth and i hand the garage m.o.t a print out from my diagnostics machine to make them understand they are not going to be finding issues that dont exist during my m.o.t . 158k on the clock the inside smells of K.F.C , just the way i like it. Never once washed the exterior as i live in the rainiest city in the u.k. right now the gears are intermittently having slight issues going into place. I think it is just general wear from my grind it not find it gear changing when reversing and after all these years its probably caused wear. Hence watching this video as my diagnostic machine isnt flagging a issue and i wouldnt imagine it would or could as its a old car and old early machine. Thanks for the video this looks a very plausible issue.

Thank you for this video tutorial! Just did this on the exact same side on my wife's 2010 Fusion SE. Her door would not close and latch so this was the problem. Your tutorial allowed me to save at least $500 versus taking it to a dealership. Got the part for $50 on eBay and my time. Thank you!

Can someone please please tell me if I need to do this, my driver side interior door latch does NOT lock but will unlock with the driver side switch and also with remote. But it does UNLOCK with remote and driver side switch. Old timer told me maybe I need to replace my driver side switch which I hope fixes it cuz this is a lot of work lol. But if my case sounds like I need to replace this oh well.

Can u put the belt on before u put the tensioner back on or do u have to put it back on first? Seems like u could put the belt on first, then put the new tensioner back on. I'm just curious bc that would seem easier but im a novice so idk. Great and easy vid btw. Thanks

You should have told us what ti use ti to drain the filter housing. A 3/8* Drive ratchet? A allen wrench i couldn't tell what you need. Ya im knit picking. But there is a comment section below so i left a comment
@steveforbes77185 ай бұрын
He covered that. The 8mm Allen wrench would remove the drain plug in the filer housing. He said he skipped that part and removed the housing without draining it first. The ratchet was for the 13mm socket to remove the oil pan drain plug. Maybe you shouldn't be working on cars.

I have a 2008 mercury milan 2.3l and it was leaking oil from where yours was and also into where the spark plugs go. I torqued the right bolt by the coil pack by 89ft lbs instead of inch lbs and snapped the bolt head off. I was lucky enough to take the valve cover back off and use a pair of vise grips to twist the rest of the bolt out of the head. But because of the way the cover is designed i needed a whole new cover. I went to my local pull a part and found a replacement. Brought it home and decided to spray the entire thing with wd40 engine degreaser foam and then rinse off with the water hose. Because the replacement was showing coolant leakage on the inner gaskets. But now i still have some water on the inside of the cover in the plastic cover i cant access. Not excessive amounts of water but its air drying. Got a new fel pro gasket set im just afraid of water inside this cover not dried before i put it back on. What should i do? How long should i wait? This video has helped me so far thank you!

Thanks for the vid. It was a pain getting the door lock actuator past the window frame both ways. You can also just electrically roll the window down till you see the bolts in the regulator. Leave it there, loosen the bolts and then pull the window up and tape it. No need to pull the regulator motor.

Thank you so much for this tutorial. I can confirm this works on a 2010 Ford Fusion SE. I had to replace the rear passenger on the driver side. For me never working on a car this was very informing and useful tutorial. I called 3 different shops and they all wanted $235,$255,$300. I bought a $20 mechanic tool set found at your local Wal-Mart and a $9 nylon pry tool set found at your local harbor freight and was able to knock it put all on my own.
