  • Ford B-Max - Ford B-Max 2012 Road Test 19 Aug 2012 (Forum)
    HJ looks like a high jumper viewed side on as he curves around the leading edge of the door. Ford missed a huge opportunity to really provide easy access. If only the door went back another 4 inches to expose the seat back to allow people to step in or out. Also what is so great about not having a B pillar?

  • Ford Fiesta (1995 - 1999) - 1998 1.25 Losing coolant. 25 Sep 2007 (Forum)
    I asked the garage where I had it serviced to check it but they forgot, and said give it a week to see it it goes down again and bring it back. Just over a week has passed and the water had gone down about an inch from the MAX level mark on the tank (in another week it will drop about another inch). I'm taking it back but just wondered if you had any ideas what the cause could be so I'm not told porkies! Thanks very much s

  • Ford C-MAX - Water leaking under car HELP! 18 Jul 2014 (Forum)
    Hi - I just discovered water dripping out from under my ford focus c-max. I'm sure it's water - I tasted it! Its dripping down from below approx where the handbrake is, or slightly towards the drivers side, and spreading out. There is a protective plate over the entire bottom of the car so it's hard to see exactly where it is coming from.

The local ford dealer says it is the drive belt that needs changing at a cost of £90 and the belt is not subject to warranty.The car has done less than 25k and is just 2 years old.
