I have a 2006 Ford Fusion and I love it. It gets around 27 MPG , runs great and has lots of power, The car has 50000 miles on it and other than oil changes and tires I have not had to replace anything. The car also has a 5 star crash rating. My Fusion has the 4 banger in it. It rides very nice too.
I recently upgraded from my Toyota Matrix to Ford Fusion. I have been having some problems with the wrench light is on sometimes and the car does not start but I think it is something easy to fix.Hopefully
Oil capacity of ford 2007 fusion v6?
The Ford Fusion V6 takes 6.0 quarts of 5/20 engine oil, including the filter.
First, remove the trim piece around the door handle by following these steps: (1) Find the 3 visible tabs, one at 12 o'clock, 6 o'clock and 9 o'clock. (2) starting at the rear of the trim piece, insert a steak knife between the trim and the door handle at the 9 o'clock tab to pry it away from the door handle. (3) pull the trim piece away from the door panel as you work your way forward by using the steak knife to pry the tabs away from the 12 & 6 o'clock positions. (4) the 4th tab is not accessible so gently pull the trim piece away from the panel to remove that last tab.
Remove the 2 screws in the indention for closing the door with a 9/32 socket.
Carefully remove all of the locking pins in the door. There is a special tool for this but if you are careful and take your time 2 screwdrivers will also work. Start in the lower left corner and slowly pry the panel away. You will be able to see the whit plastic pins as you are pulling away. Slide the screwdrivers on either side of the pin and carefully pry open. once all pins are released the small trim piece by the mirror needs to be removed in the same way. There is one pin only. After the trim piece is removed lift the panel up to release it from the window channel.
If you break any of the plastic pins, most auto parts stores stock them.
This is the same procedure for 95-99 Tahoes.
How Do you change the Back Brakes on a Ford Focus?
I would recommend getting a shop manual to see the procedure and to get all the varoious torque values for the bolts, etc.. They are about $20 and can be found in autoparts stores or online.
For the 2004 Focus you jack up the rear end, parking brake OFF, remove the wheels. There are then four bolts that need to be removed. These bolts hold the spindle/bearing and drum assembly to the cars rear wheel mount area (no axles anymore). It is NOT like cars used to be, where you had to remove the axle nut to get at the bearings and remove the drum. These 4 bolts are on the backside of the wheel/brake. Be careful not to damage the brake fluid line when removing and don't get mad at the shock, just work around it. Once the 4 bolts are removed, the drum can be slid off the shoes. The brake shoes, springs, pins, linkages etc. will all be visible, Take a picture if you are not sure you can remember how it all goes together. Get some non-chlorniaited brake parts cleaner and spray to remove all the dust from inside the drum and off the shoes, etc. Disassemble the springs, emergency brake link, pins, parts ... Lightly grease the six shoe contact points on the back wheel plate and install new shoes, put the pins springs back to where they need to be, etc. etc. Basically, reverse from the initial disassembly. Make sure the cam adjusting mechanism is retracted and reassemble the drum assy with the four bolts. I Torqued each to 60 ft-lbs. Prior to putting the wheel/tire on, pump the brakes to set the shoes (cams) to their proper position. Spin each drum to make sure they rotate without inding. Put your wheels on and go for a test run.
