Your coolant level is very low and for next service i recommend to use Mann filters. You can find everything in Eurocarparts. For pollen filter i also recommend carbon one and don't squeeze it anymore. It needs to fill up all his space inside there . All the best
Best way with the fuel filter when you've put the new filter in top up with fresh fuel to the top. Then it doesn't need bleeding and spray the engine bay with fuel 😂😂
I agree, although I wouldn’t keep a canister of fuel just for that, so I thought I’d try something that should do it just fine, only that my better half got the buttons all mixed up🤣🤣
I did mine 3 years ago so thought after 3 years it was due again. I just put £5 worth of fuel in a can.. only problem I mentioned it to my stepdaughter her Kuga has never had one and it's 5 years old so guess what I've got hers to do. Only bit I find a pain is the fuel pips clips scared to bust them 😂😂 mines in for oil change and MOT in the morning. Oh recommend a stage one remap goes like stink 196bhp. Tows my caravan well 😜😜 more smiles per mile now
Deffo, I think it does pull nicely, only drove it briefly but quite please. And to my surprise it does a better mpg than my Avensis, which is hard to beat😳
In regards to your unhappy gearbox, might need to drain & fill your gearbox fluid with new fluid. The fiesta ST's come underfilled at 1.6l or so but will hold 2l of gearbox oil
@sCARs20 it's possible that it may be too late and it be worse than just changing fluid. Also forget to mention that I am across the pond and have a US spec Fiesta ST but I wouldn't be surprised if the same type issues are inherited in ford's international vehicles
Oh OK.😉 No Worries. Anyway@@sCARs20, I Since You're Working on Your Ford Kuga, I Post You A Link For You and It's For Ford Escapes and Kugas Too., It's From "Chrisfix" And I Think You're Gonna Like It. ua-cam.com/video/brofphmC7GI/v-deo.htmlsi=jPoKT1wpi5_MKAZV
If you lube the ‘0’ ring up with a little oil it won’t squeak and it will go on and then come of better next time you change the fuel filter. Also why did you not use the bleed kit you had to bleed the air out from your fuel filter ? I would also suggest running the engine to check for leeks before you put the cover back on, but great you’ve doing it all yourself and showing others how to do it too
Thank you for your comment. The reason why I did not use the bleed kit to prime the fuel filter is because the hose from the prime tool and the fuel line were not fitting with eachother😄I mainly put the cover back for the video, but I have test drove the car to make sure it’s all good

Very good explanation on this service, personally I prefer to use all genuine ford products when doing any servicing.
Thanks .from Germany ❤
You’re welcome 😁
Look level cooling

I was thinking to change the box altogether, but I suppose that trying that first wouldn’t harm. Thanks a lot!

I’ll first try to drain the oil, and take it from there as I’d first like to see whether the level is indeed lower. Regards
Wow, Ford Kuga? I've Never Heard That Word Kuga Before, Here in 🇺🇲USA We Used Have One Here Called:
"Ford Escape." Greetings.
🇺🇲🤝🇬🇧
Greetings! Yes, the US do get different names for some cars compared to their EU twin😄
Yes @@sCARs20, Do Also I Haven't Seen The Ford Escapes with Manual Transmission Yet Though, I Only Seen with Automatics Right Now.
I would think that manual transmissions are a rare breed over there😀
Oh OK.😉 No Worries.

@@sCARs20 ah makes sense 😎
That a mark 2.5 and not a mark 2 😊
Technically, there is no such thing as a mk2.5 this is a Mk2 facelift 😄
Yep but everyone calls them mark 2.5 😜
