  • Ford diesel policy 18 Aug 2005 (Forum)
    So you can now have 90, 115 or 130ps 2.0's or 155ps 2.2 Mondeo diesels, certainly a wide range. Since the current Mondeo was launched in 2000 Ford have had a lower powered 90ps diesel, though they have only now announced that they will bring it to the UK, why?
  • Can you recommend a petrol MPV? 12 Feb 2014 (Ask HJ)
    We need to buy an MPV and would like an automatic. We rarely use the car for long journeys (just a three mile run on the school run) and therefore want...
  • mpv for towing? 14 Aug 2006 (Forum)
    There a fairly big list of criteria new car needs to fit! This is sole family car, so needs to be fairly economical to run - (at least, no really big 4x4's) At least 6 seats Not too low slung - We live out on the moors and lanes get big ruts - 405 just about ok, old Mondeo would lose it 's exhaust from time to time. And this is the stumbling point - must occasionally tow small horsebox - combined weight of 2 ponies 600kg max, plus trailer weight .
  • Jaguar S-type 2003 V6 petrol yaw rate sensor / Ford part numbers 29 May 2016 (Forum)
    2) I will probably have a look at the part and then order it but would prefer to have it ready, but on the auction site for S-type yaw sensors there are generally 3 part numbers, all Ford parts: YW4A-14B296-AA 2M5T-14B296-AC 5W93-14B296-AC or AE Any ideas on the interchageability of these? Thanks!
  • Should I buy a Ford Mondeo or Honda Accord Type S? 29 Jun 2010 (Ask HJ)
    I am buying a new car and am going back to a tourer. I owned a 54-plate Ford Mondeo tourer ST TDCI and loved it. I have been looking at the new model and...
  • Baseball Cap Brigade 15 Sep 2003 (Forum)
    Have noticed here in the South West that the baseball cap brigade are moving up market. It seems they are no longer interested in Ford/Vauxhall tinware, but are belting around in old Merc 190`s and old E 30 BMW`s. Is it any wonder that BeeM drivers (and soon Mercs) are getting such a bad reputation ????
  • Mondeo Zetec S 1 May 2001 (Forum)
    Why's it taken Ford so long to produce its hot Mondeo. This was due in January, and now it seems that it will be launched in May. Have they had problems? Looking at the spec its perhaps not as hot as it seems. 170 bhp in a car with the size and weight of the Mondeo will not win any prizes.
  • Ford V8 Diesel coming soon 12 Apr 2006 (Forum)
    As well as powering some top-end Fords, the engine will slot models built by other Ford-owned brands. Expect it to be available in the Jaguar S-type and XJ, Land Rover Discovery, Range Rover and Range Rover Sport by the end of the year.
  • Ford Fiesta 1.25 2000 - N/S driveshaft removal from gearbox 10 Nov 2020 (Forum)
      I’ve removed the O/S driveshaft but it’s not possible to drift the N/S driveshaft out from the other side, as there’s something between them in the way. I’ve tried levering with large screwdrivers and crowbars but the webs on the casting make it difficult to get enough purchase and I've hit the wall with that approach.
  • http://excelgarciniafacts.net/keto-rapid-max/ - http://excelgarciniafacts.net/keto-rapid-max/ 5 Feb 2019 (Forum)
    Do I stick this in my fuel tank and will it make my car run any better? I think this product will easily give me 100mpg in my V8!.
  • Tyres 5 Jan 2011 (Ask HJ)
    I own a Ford C-MAX 2.0 Titanium automatic. At the last MoT I was told it needed new front tyres so I asked the garage to get some fitted. It has come back...
  • Ford Mondeo ST 2006 - Dasboard display backlighting 6 Jul 2014 (Forum)
    The backlight to the computer display has failed so it' s difficult to read the LCD characters - can anyone advise if the backlighting bulbs on the display module are replaceable. Thanks in advance Howy686  
  • Audi A4 2012 - Car With Little Or No Mileage In Last 12 Months 14 Jun 2016 (Forum)
    I have been looking at a car on autotrader.co.uk that is being sold by a dealer in Peterborough. It is a 2012 s line Audi A4. It looks like a lovely car but I had a look at the MOT history on carcheck.co.uk and found that it has basically barely been driven at all between its last 2 MOTs (almost 94k miles in June 2016 and only 20 miles less in July 2015).
  • do or have you had a Ford Ka???? 7 Nov 2004 (Forum)

  • what usedcar to pick ? - Seats for five tall adults 15 Jul 2015 (Forum)
    Currently we use a Fiat Panda, mainly for my commute, and a Honda Shuttle (old but good) for the family. I am thinking of a Honda Civic or perhaps an Accord estate, or maybe a Corolla Verso or a Ford C-Max, of conceivably a Skoda. Ideally the budget is under £6,000.  Any thoughts??
  • Another smoky Mondeo TDCi 31 Jan 2005 (Forum)
    I drove for a while behind a Mondeo TDCi yesterday, that was blowing big puffs of black smoke out of it's exhaust for most of the time. We were not travelling particularly quickly (60 mph max) and for part of the time we were travelling through a 30 mph limit. It was smoking badly under the most gentle acceleration and it is just one of many that I have seen do this. Is this not recognised as a widespread problem by Ford and have they tried to rectify it?
  • What should I buy? 24 Mar 2003 (Forum)
    OK, help needed as I am unable to make a decision. What should I buy? I want to spend max. £4,000 plus the value of my 205XLD (£500??). It must have at least four doors. I want reliability and good mpg. Also, I want cheap insurance and good handling and performance. Currently I'm thinking Mondeo 1.8 petrol (as Ford don't know anything abour diesels) or Xantia diesel (as PSA know everything about diesels!).
