  • Ford Focus ST - Engine High Tempurature 11 Mar 2018 (Forum)
    Observation showed the coolant was bubbling and whilst the coolant was just above min at the start it was way over max within minutes (clearly due to pressure); naturally the fans on the engine radiator were on. Now my issue is I’m at home can’t really take it anywhere and have no breakdown cover. Ford when speaking to them advised of the replacement extended tank but as it stands not sure; they want to pick the car up and effective strip elements of the car... sounding very expensive investigation work.

  • Ford Focus Estate - '09 Focus with Blaupunkt Travel Pilot fx Head unit 9 Sep 2013 (Forum)
    I have trawled the web for a few hours but no luck so far and randomly slotting the stripped cable in to vacant slots doesn't seem like a good idea :-o Sure you would all agree?????? PS I can't get the plug(s) out of the rear of the stereo either, it has a kind of 'u' shaped locking arm but even after this is opened the little b*****s still won't come away. I had hoped that pulling them out would make it obvious as to where this wire should be fixed to for connecting to the unit.
