Oil Filter Location - Focus mk3 2012 2.0 TDCI 140 Engine

Featured Replies

I have found it, since I know the housing to look for from my old focus, but on the 140 it seems to be half buried under the front of the engine.

 

Any tips on how to swap it out?

Also is the sump and plug in a similar location to the mk2.5?

 

Very little info about this engine.



think you`ll find you oil filter between the air filter box and the engine if you look down on top of it, just undo the air pipe to see the oil filter houseing better.

sump plug should be in same place, but you may need to remove the bottom engine cover (if fitted)

Appreciate the help - yep that appears to be it.

 

Where has teh image come from and what do the arrows represent?  It looks a disaster, but I'm thinking it cannot be as bad as it looks?
