03 Ford Focus 1.8tdci Saloon - Ford Focus Saloon Dashboard - Failed 3 Mar 2011 (Forum)
Hi I am having to have the dashboard replaced as the current one seems to have totally failed, when I turn the key a couple of lights come on and go out and nothing else works. Ford have told me that there is no way of reprogramming the new dash to show the actual mileage I have no idea what the mileage is as it's a digital display that's no longer working so I cant even record it for future use. -

Hello, I have just changed the oil SAE 5 W 30, oil filter EFL 600, new sump plug and air filter on my Ford Focus 1.6 auto 2003.

Ford Mondeo III (2000 - 2007) - 03 2.0tcdi - 4 injectors failed at 99K miles 8 Oct 2008 (Forum)
Main Ford dealer tells me that all 4 injectors on 2003 2.0 Tcdi need to be replaced. Car has covered only 99K miles - surely all 4 injectors shouldn't need replacing ? Ford main dealer has already replaced one injector at cost of £400 + after diagnostic check - now one week later - with original poor running and smoking not fixed - is claiming remaining 3 need to be replaced at additional cost of £850. -
Fiat Grande Punto v's Ford Focus (hiring) 19 May 2008 (Forum)
I need to hire a car for two adults, a 10 and 7 year old (plus 10 days worth of luggage from/to the airport) in Italy this summer. The Fiat Grande Punto is a bit cheaper than a Ford Focus to hire! Are they approximately the same size? Both are showing in the same class as five door c/w aircon. I was wondering if the Ford is a bit more expensive because "us Brits" are more likely to hire this instead of the Fiat? -

Importing a Ford 25 Nov 2002 (Forum)
I'm considering importing my next car (as you might have guessed from my contribution to the "New Mini Help" thread). I'm looking for a Ford, but the final spec isn't yet decided. In the FAQs, HJ suggests ringing european dealers (more or less at random) to find out whether they are ready and willing to quote for UK imports. But to make my life easier, is there anyone out there who can name willing Ford dealers (not import agencies) in France, Belgium, Holland or Denmark. -

Ford Focus - Ford Focus St-Line Clutch problem 23 Jul 2019 (Forum)
, and now third time they say that it is an overheated / worn clutch that is down to driver error. After 40 years of driving Fords, without any such a problem, and not being a driver that pushes the performance anywhere near its upper abilities, I think this is unlikely. Does anyone have any experience of a similar problem? -

I have, on several occasions have realised my Ford Focus 2012 has not locked properly. This car has the automatic door protectors which are connected to the door mechanism. The problem I find is that you have to be careful that you give the door extra force when closing.
