Hi mate just a warning this is the wrong one for our cars, need the one with the ball lifted up slightly i had the same one and it used to pop off at when going from 4th to 2nd slowing down i can send the link to the correct one if your interested.

[@EcoboostOwen]

Yeah send the link, I think I know which one you mean. It’s item number: 113812339847 where the ball head is higher up than the one I have installed. It says on the description that’s only for the Mk3 focus 1.6 ecoboost and 1.6 TDCI models. Where the one I’ve got is for all Mk3 focus’s except the 1.6 ecoboost and 1.6 TDCI models. Item number: 113258760831.
Since fitting my shirt shifter I’ve had no issues at all. It’s not come loose or popped off etc.

great vid mate, what year is your focus?

[@EcoboostOwen]

Cheers, mines a 2014 focus 1.0 ecoboost.

[@valentinluvara8833]

@@EcoboostOwen wonder if it fits on my 2013 fiesta 1.0 🤔 Is it worth it?

[@EcoboostOwen]

@valentinluvara8833 I think it’s worth it, it makes the gear changes quicker, the gears feel tighter now. I’ve left the link in the video description. Check there if it fits your car.

@@EcoboostOwen cheers for the feedback, mine has 5 gears, stock they feel descent but still a bit loose, would be very interested to see it after. thx mate 👍

Hi mate, did you ever get a result on replacing the vacuum pump valve replacement? is there a particular aftermarket one that you used that worked and didn't continue to fail? or did you end up putting in a non return valve and stripping the original back to just the carcass?

[@EcoboostOwen]

I’ve not changed mine yet but there is a setup you can do which I mentioned in the community section on my channel 👍🏻
