Re: Ford Focus vehicle speed sensor
Did this on my Focus the part is £28 but it took 3 hours to do as it would not come out....Nasty to do laid on a floor (which I did), would be better to do on a ramp....Also cut my hand to bits doing it....I will have a garage do it for me if I ever got to do one again.As my local garage quoted me £20 to fit............
Hope this helps you .
