Fits filter

Fits my 2018 Focus with Vic 2.0. The two keys to install mark the top of the filter with a magic mark on the top where the pin is on the filter which should be pointing down. This will ensure that the pen is properly lowered. It tends to move when you install a new filter. Then apply some silicone spray to the filter inlet which snaps onto the air filter inlet tube. Then slide the new filter onto the intake pipe and then press firmly to slide it down as far as it will go. This will take some…

How to fit it

OEM but as many say doesn't quite fit - too 'big'. I have a Ford Focus (2016, 2.0l engine). This is the right option for this machine, but it doesn't fit as is. Although it's easy to fix. Lay it on the floor (on a rag or cardboard to protect the floor) with the rubber boot end facing up. Using light to medium pressure, press evenly straight down the edge of the outside of the rubber boot. The pleats bend/deform slightly when compressed. You only need to trim it down about 1/8" to 1/4" so don't…

Something is wrong here.

Not sure if this is a Ford issue or not a genuine part. This "OEM replacement" will not fit, it is not the same part as the original that came with the car. 2017 Ford Escape 2.0L Turbo. You can see in the photo that the replacement is about 1/8 inch longer than the original. I know what you're thinking, a guy can't do anything 1/8" long, just push it in, it's all plastic anyway. I usually totally agree with "fitting" but maybe for the first time in her history has Ford designed something to…

  • Very good value for money

Original part number but different from original part

I've read reviews that this filter (and others) is too long to fit in the airbox. I assumed it was all user error for not setting the filter properly. I was wrong. This is actually the correct part number from my Ford owner's manual. However, the filter medium is definitely different. Also, it was about 1/4 inch longer. Regardless, I think you should get it working. I thought about it for a few minutes and noticed that the creases on the original piece weren't distributed neatly, like they were

Genuine Ford Air Filter - Ideal for 2012 Ford Focus SE 2.0L

I bought this filter for a 2012 Ford Focus SE 2.0L. I prefer original parts and this filter is a genuine Ford part. I don't know when the filter was last changed on the car, but I noticed a difference between the old filter and this original Ford filter. The difference is that the new filter has a small mounting groove that must match the corresponding groove on the filter housing. My guess is that the old filter I removed wasn't a genuine Ford part as it didn't have a cut out like the new…

Pros
  • Easy Install
Cons
  • Damaged
