  • Ford Focus - Wondering about new car 23 Apr 2016 (Forum)
    only be self-indulgence, I know. In a local Ford dealer they have the new 1.0 EcoBoost Focus, but they seem pricey, compared with a trade-in offer. Am I right in thinking that the 'special deals' advertised only apply if you take out credit ? All manufacturers seem desperately keen to sell you
  • New Focus RS 11 Mar 2016 (Forum)
    R with all the kit cheaper. I wondered whether they would throw in the extras to get my repeat custom. No. If you don't want to pay the full wack, then go get your Type R was the response. Considering I've been a loyal customer with the Ford brand for years, I thought that was a big kick

  • Ford Mondeo Estate - Shuddering when accelerating 17 Dec 2015 (Forum)
    Hi Folks I have a charming old Ford Mondeo Estate, 1.8L and 2003 reg. When driving to work this morning, I noticed a shudder everytime I put my foot down to accelerate (fairly hard but not overly hard). Once I then reach a cruising speed (any speed from 0mph), it seems to run smooth. If I

    Hi, For years I have driven down to Devon in a 2004 Ford Fiesta along the A303 and found that after a while reception of BBC Radio 2 cuts out. I'm not sure exactly where this happens, I think it's somewhere between Stone Henge and Wincanton. I'd always made the assumption

  • Ford Focus Key Copying 3 Dec 2014 (Forum)
    I have just purchased a very nice 03 Focus 1.8 LX but unfortunately it only came with the one key incorporating the remote. I have been quoted about £130 for a new spare remote from a Ford agent which will mean leaving the car with them for reprogramming the original and new remotes and evidently

  • Ford Transit 2.5 Diesel - Has my transit lost its memory 19 Jul 2013 (Forum)
    , I have checked all the obvious things battery fuses etc, but the problem persists, I suspect it is something to do with the ford pats immobilizer as I get nothing other than a click from the ignition relay when I turn the key, and the warning light comes on the dashboard, there are no other noises
