• Relax - I'm doing it. 11 Aug 2005 (Forum)
  "What?" you ask. I'll tell you - the cambelt. Ford reckon 100k. Many of you reckon 50. I'm on 70k now and have taken it as far as I dare. I know realistically Ford would never pay out in the event of a snap but I didn't want to be changing it at 50k - I think it's a bit too early. It goes

• anxious to shift metal 14 Mar 2005 (Forum)
  Seeing that Ford are claiming to offer "up to £2000" extra trade in to new car buyers makes me wonder if the trade really is that quiet currently? Clearly there's oversupply (production) in Europe. We're spoilt for choice of vehicles these days, but is Ford, in particular, having a hard time, I

  I have to opt out of my company car soon and was pretty set on getting a 6mths or so old Mondeo TDCi - perhaps a Ford Direct one. However I've now read many horror stories about problems with the car, the dealer and with Ford themselves. As with all things, we'll generally only hear about problem

• Best design feature 23 Jul 2004 (Forum)
  In the spirit of the other thread - 'Biggest car design bloopers'; Are there any really good design pieces in a car that you think '.. Wow that's really good, why can't all cars have that...?' I nominate the heated front screen as seen on upscale Fords. Why they don't fit these to Volvos (Ford
• Electric seat memory Mondeo GhiaX 14 Apr 2004 (Forum)
  I have a Ford Mondeo Ghia X and this features an electric driver seat which needs an infinite amount of adjusting to get into the right position for me. Then my wife gets in and totally changes everything when she goes to the SPAR down the road 5 minutes away! Does anyone know if Ford or anyone

• Diagnostics. 17 May 2002 (Forum)
  A friend has a Ford Fiesta 1.3 that won't start. It stinks of petrol and must be over fueling. My question is this: I'd like to recomend the Tune-up guy from Southampton to visit her house and do the job. (Her AA doesn't cover Homestart) However if it's a weird and complex sensor fault will he

  Sorry to start another thread about the same issue, but I've just been told by a Ford garage that the gearbox oil in my 2.0 Focus can't be changed due to the fact that there's no drain plug!!! Can anyone confirm this? Surely the gearbox oil has to be changed later in the car's life?!? When I
