Really helpful video having not worked on a diesel engine before. Nice One!!!

[@diydaly]

Glad it helped 👍 thanks for the comment

[@raymonddavies8517]

Thank you for the informative video. Couldn’t get the car booked in for a service so I tackled it my self. Easy to follow and job done !! Cheers buddy 👍😃

[@diydaly]

Great to hear!

[@Showing_the_car_]

Another really great, clear and well explained video - thanks bud. Luckily you have covered a lot of the cars I have had. Now if you could just change the front nearside suspension and service a 2014 BMW Z4, I'd be sorted 😁

[@diydaly]

Thanks 👍 comments much appreciated! haha I will if I ever get one in! think we only have one that comes in every year just for an mot!

[@hoogerbooger5862]

Very clearly presented. Thank You

[@daraghkellett9389]

Great video well explained.. would you know how to get the intercooler off theres not much room

[@diydaly]

👍 can’t think without looking tbh mate , was a while ago I did this one

[@jdickson242]

Why do some fords have the crappy bent piece of pipe from the pcv valve and others have a proper moulded hose? Mine has the naff version

[@Maveric193]

Thank you for your time making these excellent videos. Always look forward to the next one. Didn't really know where to post this question but I need to know the best way to remove contaminated diesel from the fuel tank in a ford focus 1.6 tdci mk3 2014 please, without having to drop the tank. Could you advise please. Many thanks.

[@diydaly]

There might be a drain option via diagnostic machine but if not with a pump I’d try sucking it through the supply pipe to the fuel filter

[@Kapelmajster1]

Super pokazane👍

[@ANDY-we7mr]

Good video thanks for sharing that very well explained the slump plug on a ford focus mk3 titanium x diesel 25 num

[@harrybiscoe911]

I have juat changed my fuel filter, i didn't have a pump, and i didn't fill the filter with diesel due to hole. The car took a couple of attempts to start. Now it is starting without fail. However, there is a slight shake in the engine bay while i leave it on idol. This has been running for 10mins and still shakes. What do i need to do.

[@diydaly]

Possible air still , give I a little long let Run time or take it for a quick drive

[@kevinbrown8960]

Hi great video , what size pipe on the priming pump do I need.

[@diydaly]

im fairly sure it was 8mm mate

Why do you use Castrol edge 5w-30 LL (gold) not Motorcraft 5w-30 5A/5B? In my car book is recommended 5A/5B, spec wss-m2c913-c. I heard, people use Castrol but magnatec (green). Nice change

[@diydaly]

Thanks , it was a while back I did this so will have to check back mate

[@sjfortune]

Hey. Without a suction pump is the fuel filter ok just filling it up? I've read a comment on here that someone had a new code after their DIY with maybe air in their system. If you say its no big deal i'll keep to that, otherwise I can make a makeshift handpump and take the air out, or i'll buy one and do it properly. Thanks in advance.

[@diydaly]

Yeah just fill it up , they need bleeding to make it a lot easier but won’t need any coding doing

[@davidwilkinson9360]

Thats a brilliant video. Do you think i could pre fill the fuel filter if i dont have a suction pump ? Thanks

[@diydaly]

Yeah it always helps

[@filipemendes2518]

I have done exactly as you demonstrated and it was very easy to do, having said that, I decided to take a small coca cola bottle of coolant direct from the reservoir with a hand pump, which I subsequently replaced with neat coolant as my focus was running a bit on the rough due to the cold weather that we been experiencing. Now my temperature gauge is fluctuating from cold to hot and back to cold primarily when I stop the car from a morning journey to work, worries me all the time. Today I decided to take a different route through the m25 on my way back home. It fluctuated once toncold when I slow down due to traffic, put the heating on HI and drive pretty much for an hour without fluctuating and kept to normal temperature, on arrival at home the gauge kept right in the middle of the temperature display for a while as I kept the car running to observe if it would fluctuate again which it didn't. Could you help me to diagnose what the issue might be as the car runs perfectly, no warning lights on dashboard. The vehicle is a 2013 Ford focus titanium x 1600 diesel Any imput will be much appreciated. Many thanks.

[@diydaly]

Seems odd, may be bit of air in the system.. but if you only took that small amount out its unlikey.. first step I would try bleeding the system at the bleed points

[@grahams216]

TIP......REMOVE FILTER BOX TO IMPROVE ACCESS TO THE DODGY PLASTIC NUT ON THE OIL FILTER HOUSING I struggled to undo the oil filter nut as I only had a spanner that was big enough to fit but there wasn't enough room to properly fit and turn the spanner due to poor accessibility. The air filter box is easily removed as you just undo an electrical connector and then just pull it out from the rubber mountings. Bingo - managed to undo the tightly fit oil filter housing with the spanner and adjustable wrench, without looking for a suitable socket or tool to purchase.

[@GSF404]

Is this procedure similar for the C-Max of the same year, the engine bay layout looks 'more or less' the same. I ask as I am getting a weird 'Engine Malfunction Service Now' light when going to about 3,000 RPM which generally seems to be fuel filter related it seems.

[@diydaly]

yeah should be very similar mate 👍

[@GSF404]

@@diydaly is there specific torque settings for fuel filter housing or just, hand tight?

[@rudger1913]

Hey. Can overfilled oil cause problems on newly fitted dpf and oil fog located on the valve cover? Also saw some oily signs on throttle body, seems oil in the pipes after the turbo.

[@diydaly]

It can if it’s a lot over! Just a little won’t harm arnt thing

[@CarloLeonKolega]

Got P2291 Code, engine went to limp mode after filter replacement. Also, is the mann filter supose to rattle a bit in the housing?

[@diydaly]

That’s a fuel pressure code , may have been due to air in the system or a leak.. it shouldn’t rattle no mate

[@CarloLeonKolega]

@@diydaly I called the part store, they told me that all of them rattle, I heard it over the phone xd wierd... Is it possible that the whole batch is faulty?

[@diydaly]

@@CarloLeonKolega I’m not sure tbh mate , I’ve not known them rattle before

[@patrickkparrker413]

I've just changed my rear break abs censor th traction control light stays on when the engine is running despite being turned off , do you think it needs to be re set , thanks .

[@diydaly]

Abs faults clear them selves if the issues sorted , once fitting the sensor you Amy need to drive over 15mph

[@patrickkparrker413]

@@diydaly I drive on the motorway , anyway the problem ( not " issue " ) is the steering censor.

Interesting video , my focus mk3 has started sounding rough, I'm told it's the injector, I have a 1.5 diesel. Is there anyway to fix this without costing a fortune.

Neh I’m afraid there bloody dear injectors 😬 best get it checked first though .. it could be a completely different fault

[@raduflorian7037]

I think on these models the cartridge oil filter is best to be fitted first because of that nipple..and afterwards put the cap back on..and tightened to spec..again..just my opinion..other that ..top job...

[@diydaly]

Yeah I’ve done it that way sometimes, it can sometimes be tricky to feel for it locating otherwise 👍

Hi mate! Great content. Is it a pain to do a semi auto clutch in a ds5?

[@diydaly]

Thanks for the comment 👌👍 I’ve not done one a a ds5 tbf mate , I have on a ds4 and it wasn’t too bad to do .. not sure if you need to take the subframe down or not and you’ll need a diagnostic machine to set the clutch back up 👍

[@wellazwashy516]

This guy is amazing. Quick educational clip for anyone no matter how thick one can be. The only part l didn’t get was when he put back the fuel filter. The in and the out flow. How did you do the fuel suction and is there any other tool or method of doing it if l don’t have the pump like you got? Please Advise. Thank you in advance

[@diydaly]

Thanks for the comments! You could your a real basic primer pump .. other than that , best approach would be to brim the filter with diesel first the keep cranking plus some brake cleaner or east start in the intake to help .. not really advisable though.. priming is the best approach 👍

[@ciaranmccormack4434]

Instead of using ‘a sucker pump’ as you stupidly put it, just fill the filter with diesel before you put the seal on top of it…………………

[@andyasquith5216]

Priming the filter is a bit of an arse ache. Prior to fitting the top, you will need to keep your finger over the drain hole. Otherwise, it will pish diesel everywhere. Prefer to use the pump, and then you can guarantee no air between the filter and HP fuel pump. Hey, ho, though, each to their own. There's more than one way to skin a cat.

[@johnysmart8545]

that looks like a psa (peugeot/citroen) engine
