Thank you for this informative video. Have you made one on replacement headlight bulbs to LED or to a higher lumen bright white H7 bulbs ?......Would be grateful if you do one as you explain very clearly. Many Thanks carspy !
Thanks for the video suggestion. Whereas I've never filmed it, I’ve fitted brighter than typical halogen and xenon bulbs to various cars. In my experience: • both types are far brighter than standard • halogen bulbs don’t last long (months) • xenon bulbs last many years.
@CarSpyTV thank you for your detailed reply, much obliged ! I will look in to this and go for the xenon bulbs. Its a same fitment, so should be easy. By the way, I bought and fitted the sequential wing mirror indicators, they are a good mod and upgrade, cost me 13 pounds!. They work and look great. Thanks again 👍🏻
You're welcome. If the car came with halogen bulbs from new, I wouldn't assume you can easily replace them with xenon. The following link might be useful. See: eurowagens.com/blog/can-i-upgrade-my-headlights-from-halogen-to-xenon/?srsltid=AfmBOorSbMfXpkEPYaBZzRQ9-5HnjUmdHz4GcrcM9U1HNp2CSkien3Ep
just had an mot failure for “Headlamp levelling device inoperative” and “Offside Front Headlamp aim projected beam image is obviously incorrect”. I’m assuming this video will fix the second failure, what would the fix be for the first failure? Thank you
On eBay, you can get a electronic headlamp control unit (used). It's for models with xenon rather than halogen headlamps. I can't say for sure that's the issue, but perhaps it's food for thought. Good luck.
Thank you, Matt. To answer your question, I think so - but haven’t personally checked. The Mk 2.5 headlamp is a different shape but it has the same adjustment screws.
@@CarSpyTV I will have to check my friends on and let you know. Then you can also add a mk2.5 in the thumbnail and tag words to get you more views :) good luck buddy
@@CarSpyTV Thanks for the video 🤷🏻♂️😅. Tried getting mine done at a local place and they said the adjusters weren't doing anything,it was a brand new headlight. No choice but to figure it out myself. Video helped a lot 😉
I have the same car. But the right speaker is loud like screaming. If i don't start the car, the speakers work fine. If i turn on the car it does not work and screams. Could you please help me. Thank you
How annoying! Hope you get it sorted. You might find the following link interesting: www.focusst.org/threads/high-pitch-noise-coming-from-pass-side-speakers.128466/
After my driver headlight started impersonating a goldfish bowl, I bought a replacement, and wanted to make sure they were properly aligned so I didn't blind anyone. Sadly, I bought it to a place who used a proper beam adjuster, spent a full 4 minutes ensuring all was OK, then relieved me of £20! I'll not be making that mistake again...

Another great video by yourself. Does the same method work on the mk2.5 :)

do the screws work the same for the facelifted version???
Same or similar. However, I haven't got a facelift version here to check.
Thanks! That was the answer I was looking for.

For the Facelift the Inner is L/R (L being anti-clockwise). Still working out the outer one for height..
Thanks for the info.

Great. Glad the video helped. More Focus content to follow.
Clear advice as always.
You can guess what I'd use to free up the plastic screw mechanism. 😁
No idea! I keep hoping you'll recommend something. 😁
@@CarSpyTV not until the royalties start rollin' in. 🤣
Is this the same for the hid’s in the s max
Not sure. I don't have a Ford S-MAX here to check.

What if the adjustment screw doesn't work?
If you can't fix the screw, you can get a new headlamp on eBay.
