• Ford s-max - fitting of tow bar 2 Mar 2007 (Forum)
  I'm considering buying a ford s-max, but need a tow bar. Would prefer a factory fitted one, however, my local dealer says he cannot source one, and that I will have to wait until the end of march before I can order one (and then a further 12 weeks while ford build the car??!!)

• Rust - Stop It Now!!! 10 Sep 2004 (Forum)
  Hi - Not quite sure if this belongs in Technical Matters but I\'m sure it will get moved if it does. As you may have guessed from the apt title, I need to get rid of some rust. It\'s a tiny tiny amount and apparently a common problem on the rear of Focuses (Foci?). Anyway - what\'s the best thing to do to get rid of it - like I said, it\'s a tiny amount but there is a silver effect bar on the boot making sanding difficult.
• Ford Mondeo Remote Key 8 Jul 2004 (Forum)
  There are quite a few appearing on Ebay from time-to-time, but I'm unsure of how many different types of key there are. My Ford Mondeo is one of the later Mark 2's which has no red key and has a 3 button remote. Most of the remote keys that I see on Ebay are the 3 button types, but sellers say they're for the Focus or 01 Mondeo. Does anyone know whether the later Mark 2's use the same remote key as the Mark 3's, or are they different?
• Avon ZZ1 Tyres 28 Jul 2003 (Forum)
  Hi all, I am collecting an X reg Mondeo 1.8 Zetec on Monday. All four tyres on the vehicle are in good order treadwise, two Avon ZZ1's on the front and a pair of Avon ZZ3's on the back. The problem is that I have read on a tyre forum that some people have found the ZZ1's to be almost lethal in certain road/weather conditions on certain vehicles.
• n/a - Ultrasonic parking sensors - interference? 19 Jul 2021 (Forum)
  Is it possible that u/s parking sensors on your car can be triggered by the sensors operating on another car close behind that is also reversing? Do all car u/s sensors operate on the same frequency? Or is it like cordless phones which work on different channels?

• Peugeot 406 aircon 29 Jun 2006 (Forum)
  Over the past couple of weeks it?s been slowly getting hotter and hotter. It?s nearly 6 years old, I?m guessing it needs re-gassing. Will my local little Peugeot franchise be able to do this and how much will it set me back? Cheers Dave.
