Thank you for this. I have a 67 plate Kuga. I feel watching your video that I would be confident enough to do all this myself. It will be the first time for me to do my own small service. I followed your video for changing the pads and disks and all went well.
Glad it was helpful! Good luck any issues leave a comment and I’ll be happy to take you through any bits you get stuck with
Thank you for this, serviced my mrs vehicle today. This video helped me 100%..🎉
Fantastic, thank you for the feedback
Absolutely top video, thank you!!! I've been looking everywhere for a how to video of the Kuga service! Video was very clear and hope I find your video of the brakes being serviced too
Hello, thanks for the feedback, I have videos of brake replacement on this vehicle hope they are equally as enjoyable
Great video! Thanks. Makes it much quicker to go do a change yourself as you know exactly what tools you need down to the socket size!
@@bing1788 thats what I aim to provide. Glad you enjoyed it
Great video, the muck to the back of the engine gearbox case will probably be the high pressure fuel pump gasket leaking oil. Common issue on these engines.
I never knew that I’ll have to take a look at some point into that, easy fix do you know
Yep very common in these
Did a similar service on a Ford S max at 60,000 miles. Swapped out the power steering fluid which was filthy.
@@grahamhurley7596 that’s a good shout I’ll look into this for the next batch of work
A very well presented description of how to service the Kuga. Especially as I'm picking one up on this week :)
Thank you, hope you enjoying your new vehicle
Brilliant tutorial, thank you - fuel filter housing however should be thoroughly cleaned of old fuel and deposits/debris before having the new filter fitted.
Thanks nearing the next service so will be sure to do this next time. Thanks for watching
@WilliamMurfitt if I clean out the old fuel how much new fuel do I know to add is there a marking
@@parmindersidhu9690Hi, you aren’t required to fill any fuel back into the reservoir on this vehicle so just go ahead and start, which may be delayed the first time you crank after replacement of the fuel filter. Hope this helps!
@Hogrid-cy OK thanks so don't need to add fuel shall I jus start or press the ignition on a fuel times before the push start thanks
@@parmindersidhu9690prime it through by pressing the ignition on a couple of times first before going for a start as best practice - good luck!
Simply wonderful presentation thank you very much.👍🙏
Thank you very much
Excellent tutorial!
Thank you very much
Hi great video really useful and helpful. Thanks
You are welcome 😊
Cracking video, great info! Cheers!
Thank you 🙏
Great video, look forward to more now I'm subscribed
Thank you for your comment and thank you for your subscription too 🙏
Fantastic video very informative what I would like to know is when you changed the fuel filter does it just start back up and not need bleeding just a thought but thanks again 😊
@@adambonner3130 thanks very much, fuel filters on these are pump driven so once replaced (and cleaned) the engine struggles to start for two or three cranks until fuel hits and then fires up. As I have mentioned in other comments the focus uses a different system which needs to be primed. This however may not be the case for all models of kuga but for the 2.0 tdci duratorq fitted to my stline worked without priming
thank you for your video explanation!
You're welcome
Great video, did you have to prime the fuel filter in anyway? Did you experience and air lock?
No need to prime the pump on this model, it self bleeds whilst cranking
Great video thank you😊
No worries
I’ve seen on other TH-cam videos, after fitting the diesel filter, it’s been said you need to bleed the system of air that wouldn’t seem of been the case on this video
@@royparsons2048 not on this model, however the focus for example you do need to prime the fuel system
What about the transfer box oil, Ford say it’s a sealed unit but many people say it should have an oil change every 25/30000 miles?
I’ve not heard of this as was told it was sealed but I will check in the next service interval which will be 90,000 miles
Awsum tutorial...thought id give it a go and save money myself..done everything you've done on my ford kuga...and now my car stalling when I'm going up hill...saying needs service...then turn ignition off and back on then starts fine..then it's happens again...any ideas ?
Are your fuel lines connected fully? This is the only thing that id suggest would habe any impact on poor running
Дизельные форсунки на замену. Неправильная замена топливного фильтра😢. Грязь из отстойника испортила форсунки.
Hi great video I service my focus 14 plate but I have recently bought a kuga too and this dosent look too dissimilar apart from the fuel filter. My only question is do you pull the fuel through the filter i had to on the focus but I didn't see it in this video or does it not need it cheers
This system was self bleeding on the Kuga. The focus diesels are a nightmare!
Hi see the powershift gearbox is there a way I can top up the fluid as I feel I am running low is it under the air filter housing an I loosen the bolt an top up as i had a leak so thought I'd give a little top up help.
I’m not 100% sure, I need to carry out a transmission fluid change soon so will look to make a video of this whilst I go through the task
What is the spray you use that seems to make everything vanish 👍🏻
Brake cleaner, it cleans and evaporates
Hi mate great video was going to book my 2017 Kuga st-line 2.0 diesel in at the garage but after watching this have decided to do it myself have you got a link for the service kit on eBay and when changing fuel filter does it need bleeding thanks
Brilliant, no link sorry but just searched ebay and went with a company selling the genuine kit including oils
I do i need to add new fuel to the fuel filter housing when changing fuel filter or can i take old one out an jus puy new one in like u did
@@parmindersidhu9690 no need to fill with fuel, when you attempt to start it will fill it, after a few rotations it should fire 👍
Hello, can you make mayby a Video from DSG( Powershift ) Service ? I Have a Kuga ST Line 2019 THX
I’d love to but I can only work on what I have, my kuga isn’t the power shift. Unless I can get hold of one I’ll be unable to help I’m afraid
11:14 fuel filter ford kuga
Nice one 👌
14:27 Left hand thread on the oil filter? Odd!
Just noticed that myself
Great video, I have the same car, does yours eat the petrol aswell?
No, not at all this vehicle is fantastic on fuel. This is the 2.0 diesel model which may be a reason why? A good service may aid to reduce the fuel used, and maybe introduce an injector cleaner also
Does anyone know how i get my number back for my radio is locked after a battery re-charge..Ford Kuga 2012 first redg in Japan..thanks😢
@@LouisSmith-pd8lg main dealers can provide you with the required code, or check the owners handbook offensively written in there in pen
Im looking at getting a kuga. How is fuel consumption around town? What year model and engine size is yours?
So this is the st-line 2.0 tdci as its genuinely brilliant on fuel.my parents travel about and are always raving about the fuel consumption. I have been looking at upgrading our car to a kuga also based on my parents experiences
@@WilliamMurfitt nice! Im in a Pickle as fuel is coming down in sA but Diesel prices going up. So not sure between Diesel and ulp.
What year model is it?
Hello, where's the best place to get OEM parts? Or seller on eBay?
You can buy genuine parts online via eBay or “shop.ford” alternatively main dealers supply new parts too
what is the spray you use
@@rogersturgeon5293 brake cleaner
Hello mate changing FUEL filter does it need to bleed to removed air?
On the focus mk2 it does this appeared to have been ironed out for the kuga model and no bleeding required that I find
My C max 2.0L tdci, is on its third alternator at 85k....
Oh no, what a nightmare does yours have the start stop function? Wonder if that has anything to do with it
@@WilliamMurfitt No it doesn't, but my Ghia 2.0L tdci, was fitted with an underrated alternator new from the factory, fortunately I realised this before fitting the third one, which if I remember correctly is a Nippon denso, strangely enough......
It's done 114k miles now so.....🤞
ATB, Mitch.
