  • Ford Focus Estate / Fabia Estate / Peugeot 206SW - High miler turbo diesel estates? Or petrol? 30 Dec 2017 (Forum)
    Never owned a diesel, the fuel economy appeals but I read a lot of threads discussing expensive issues with the turbo diesels, e.g. the Ford Focus Estate TDCI1.6 problems, concern me. Would it be better to go with the Focus in the 1.6 petrol unit? My motoring consists mainly of local trips but with longer work-related trips from Nottingham to the Bristol area and back five or six times a month.

    I stopped and called out the breakdown service, the guy came out and started it, and revved it high three times. after that it was fine for a few days, when it went rough while idling again. Its now in the local ford dealer where i bought it from, but they cant figure out what the problem is. they've had it for 3 days! Does anybody have any ideas? i fear that this is going to cost me a fortune, although they did say after the second day they would only charge me for 1.5 hours, and i do have an extended warranty Any help appreciated
