• Ford Focus Estate - 2015 Focus 1.6 TDCi Brake Fluid Reservoir Leak 17 Apr 2016 (Forum)
  Hi folks I own a 2015 Focus 1.6 TDCI estate with 18k miles. Over the past few days I've noticed brake and clutch fluid seeping out from under the reservoir cap. (The reservoir is shared for both systems). The level is just above the minimum and the amount coming out is small  ( a drop or so every 24hrs).

• Skoda Octavia II (2004 - ) - No more spare tyres for Octavia 17 Nov 2009 (Forum)

• B Max - Gearbox 26 Aug 2019 (Forum)
   I asked a question on here about having this work done and there was a suggestion that  Ford  wouldn’t honour the warranty on a car which had been serviced  outside the Ford dealer network. Not necessarily the case, fortunately. Ford will authorise  gearbox warranty  work on cars which have not been serviced by themselves outside the three years,  but  this seems to be on a case by case basis.
