For some reason Amazon says that this particular part isn't going to fit an 05 focus, but there's another one that looks almost identical for a few dollars more that does. I am going to go with your recommendation just because you found a filter for it, and that's the hardest part 😂 my mechanic has always said he'll look in to my "lifetime" filter because that couldn't possibly be right but he never does. I'm just gonna do it myself.

[@matt-diy]

Good luck! Shouldn’t be too bad!! Also if you look in the description, it will fit a 2005! They probably have the fitment tool wrong.

Thank You so so much man! You did an awesome, detailed job explaining this. I also appreciate the fact that you posted the actual links to get the parts. I have a 2007 Focus, do you think that these parts will work on it? I noticed in the video you mentioned 05 and 06, so Im just double checking before I order.

[@matt-diy]

Thank you and glad it was helpful! Yes, I believe this should work for 2007 as well!

@@matt-diy You're so very welcome! And awesome!! Thank You so much again.

Hi, do you have any advice for uneven idling, fuel in the oil and vibrating steering wheel while idling and breaking on a '07 ford focus please?

[@matt-diy]

Sounds like your piston rings are shot if you have fuel in the oil, your engine may be on its way out.

[@alkigirl]

@@matt-diy It only has 141000 miles

[@alkigirl]

@@matt-diy There is no smoke and the engine is not burning oil.

It could be a fuel injector that’s stuck open.

I'm a Dealer and have sold dozens over the years. They all vibrate, but for less vibration, check motor mounts and transmission mounts. They wear out.

Do you know if this will work on an 09 Focus PZEV?

[@matt-diy]

I don’t think it will.
