2004 Ford Focus 1.6L Petrol Clutch Replacement

[@MonkeyHunch1]

You make it look easy but it is not. Working on the ground like that. So respect for that!

[@richardgrant5105]

The last time I changed a clutch was a Morris 1000 - easy ! Somebody at Ford (and others!) should go back to school. Congrats to this guy, who knows what he's doing !!

b smith ain’t it just .. 😊... thanks for visiting the channel

[@flacter]

In minute 5:00 you get off a clip and I saw another one but cant find it anymore, What they are made for and where they are?

[@Wallrunning]

Do you know why I would get a leak of oil from the clutch which smells burnt when driving? I have checked and it comes from the box where the gear cables are connected.

[@evronetwork]

My Ford Focus 1.6L needs the same, plus wheel bearing plus brake disc and pads ...from all of that the only think I might be able to do is the brake discs and pads. Everything else needs a lot of tools and experience that I lack. I have no gear slip, no issues what so ever but my mechanic said it's busted, I mean it's a used car from 2000 with 163.000km but I do treat it quite softly(really soft changes, no more than 3000rpm ...slow accelerations etc, just need it from and back to work)

[@wefilmitproduction1936]

Hello . I've been given ford focus c max 1.6 petrol ⛽️ I'm wondering if you kindly answer a couple of questions please . First on My cluch bite is at 99.9.99% Don't think it could be any higher to be honest but weirdly the it drives really nice the clutch is not sliding 2nd question is could just need adjusting at the top the peddle? And how much for replacement please

superb and plenty of views!

[@herridge819]

Good video. That's a fair old weight to have on your chest, I normally put a trolley jack under the 'box.

[@nicolejamieson9378]

Hi, l own a WP Ford Fiesta, l’m in Australia, l have noticed that the gear changes are becoming harder or not even engaging into the selected gears, I’m wondering if you can adjust the cable instead of replacing the whole unit with a new clutch and cable? Would like some tips if any?

[@WMCS]

They are unfortunately hydraulically operated... the stiffness of gear change would suggest the clutch pressure plate tensioner springs are now inop. So unfortunately you’d require a clutch kit change. .., hope that helps.

[@ZsoltSzabó-n4g]

Köszi!😀

[@Toby_the_Glen]

13:37 Yeah, know the feeling! lol

[@WMCS]

Toby the Glen 😂😆... glad you could relate...

[@georgegeorgel7254]

You didnt remove thw starter?

[@mattbowley3228]

Did u have to drop the sub frame to do the clutch as needing to do it on mine in 3 days thanks

[@WMCS]

It’s as shown in the video ✨✨🍻🍻

[@mohidmm]

Hi do you do mobile repair I’m looking for clutch replacement

[@baautosgarage528]

Is there clips or bolts to the driver shaft in side ? Or it's just the men hub bolt which holds in place ?

[@WMCS]

Mussawir Ahmad just two 13mm bolts.

[@Snooker-cn3dm]

How much this will cost approximately? I have Ford Focus 2004 as well.

[@laidbackjim]

Do you need to resurface the fly wheel at all?

[@WMCS]

I’ve never had to ..

[@jeffreylandeweer8825]

Do you know Where and how many liter gearbox oil i need for a ford focus wagon 2003 1.6?

[@jacobhill-baines7836]

Did you torque the pressure plate bolts? If so, what is the specification please

[@Hendroit]

Good video! How do you bleed the clutch when you are alone on the street?

[@WMCS]

I have made a an adjustable bar that has eliminated the use of another leg 🦵...😁✨

[@JazzFunkNobby1964]

You Sir are f**king amazing.

[@Carlos-mj6ck]

Cheers, really good video, gotta do mine in the next couple weeks! What impact wrench is that?

[@WMCS]

Carlos it’s the Milwaukee fuel. Hope your repair goes well.

[@Carlos-mj6ck]

@@WMCS Cheers. Hope you do an MX5 MK1/2 in the future!

[@zoltanperge-ferenczy2885]

Good job Mate 👍 is the last bolt that you loosen at 11:55 visible in the video at some point? which one is that?

[@nmo888]

Nice job Kevin 👍 I’ve got the same job on same car soon,do you know if there’s a chance of an 2003 having a dmf flywheel ?

[@WMCS]

thanks.. is it a petrol or diesel your one mate..

[@nmo888]

It’s a 1.6 Zetec petrol. I’m pretty sure it’s not dmf now. Good to see the ball joint pinch bolt came out easy, I had one last month that needed a lot of heat before it moved 🙈

[@WMCS]

It will be a solid flywheel, The trick to getting the pinch bolt out is to split the centre of the hub holding the bolt in with a chisel.. that way it releases it then you can knock it out.. no heat required. hope it goes ok for you...

[@websurfer1585]

Why on earth don't all cars have the system vauxhall used in the 1980's on the cavalier, and have a removable cover on the bellhousing, to make clutch replacement simple and fast?

[@WMCS]

I’ve heard of them .., but never actually seen one ..

[@soldiersvejk2053]

Hi Kevin, great video as ever! Are you using a 3 ton jack? Does it provide enough clearance? Also, might be a good idea to wear masks because the dust may contain asbestos. Thank you!

[@jimmyjimjim7599]

You're suggesting asbestos has been used on a 2004 ford focus despite the use of any asbestos being banned pre 2000???

[@soldiersvejk2053]

Jimmy JimJim I only know that asbestos is banned in interior design, not sure if it is also banned in clutches and brakes. After all,I think most mechanics agree that brake dust is bad. Clutch dust is likely to be similar, if not worse.

[@tomz7621]

Great Job William, how many Time do you need to do this Job?

[@WMCS]

Tom Z just once mate

[@nathanrobles4583]

[@BigEightiesNewWave]

The big downside of FWD On our older RWD American cars you only pull the trans and driveshaft ! This is a fuckin nightmare from Hell.

[@howy5799]

My gearbox just isnt going back on at all

[@howy5799]

Finally got it on, just need to bleed clutch and fill gearbox

[@WMCS]

Howy glad to hear you managed to get it back on. What was it in the end.

[@howy5799]

@@WMCS the friction plate wasnt alligned. Then tried to put the gearbox back in with the bracket thats holding it to the subframe at the bottom (saving abit of time i was thinking). We did get it in fairly quickly but the friction took ages, now ive hit another problem- the clutch thrust bearing wont bleed either

[@WMCS]

Howy glad to hear you got it back on. Now with the bleeding either the master cylinder has failed or you’ve got some air trapped in the system. 1. Prime the master cylinder by pumping the pedal no more than 2 inches from the bottom ... as soon as there’s a slight bit of resistance hold it down whilst some opens and shut the slave cylinder nipple. Do that a few times and the fourth time lift the pedal no more than halfway and repeat the same procedure. If that doesn’t work. A replacement clutch master cylinder will be needed and you should be ok after that

[@tanvirhussain6106]

Mk1 Focuses not bad to work on compared to done of the shit you see on the road thesedays.

[@Tome13Eclipse]
