  • ford galaxy - problems starting ford galaxy 18 Apr 2011 (Forum)
    I am having problems starting my Ford Galaxy. It starts great first time with jump cables and runs ok. As soon as you turn the engine off and try and restart it turns over a little bit but doesn't restart. There is no battery light lit so it appears the alternator is ok and I have cleaned all the battery contacts and the earth and it is still the same, When started the car was run for 20 or so miles yet it wouldn't restart when the ignition was turned off.

  • Ford Galaxy - Ford Galaxy OBD app 20 Aug 2019 (Forum)
    Hi Folks, I have a 2003 Ford Galaxy MkII Automatic Petrol 2.3 engine.

    My car was sold to me (not from a Ford dealer) with a "Full dealership history" and indeed the service book is fully stamped up to 38k.  At 37.5k the Powershift fluid should have been changed but the Ford garage who did the service have confirmed in writing that they actaully did a 50k service at which the fluid change is not done.
