  • Ford - Mystery Focus 2 Nov 2009 (Forum)
    When I had finished my 'Reginald Molehusband' manoeuvre I was astonished to discover a blue oval 'Ford' badge and the word 'Focus' impressed into a chrome strip along the boot. Closer inspection revealed that it was a Focus coupe. It had a UK plate and was right hand drive but I can find no mention of that model on the Ford website.

  • Ford Mondeo III (2000 - 2007) - 04 2.5 alternator problem 7 Apr 2009 (Forum)
    A piece of good news for mondeo mk3 2.5l owners- I had an alternator on its way out, confirmed by Ford. The battery light was coming on and off. The Ford price was £370 approx, plus fitting say £450-£500. I didnt like that and was recommended to use an independent specialist. The fitted alternator was not the exact model as none could be found at short notice, but I was assured it would be compatible and capable .
  • Ford Focus II (2004 - 2007) - 08 1.6 petrol service 23 Mar 2009 (Forum)
    hi s.i.l. has just purchased a 1.6 ford focus but not yet picked up. it is just over 12 months old (8/3/08 first reg) and done just over 9000 miles. i told her it is due a sevice, she contacted the seller (wll known car supermarket) who told her that it will need a service, but they would not do it and that she will have to have it done at a ford or vat reg garage. so to keep the warranty it needs doing. as the car is now over 12 months old, does anyone know if or what is the grace period on the service intervals thanks
  • Ford Focus III (2008 - ) - Focus 1.6 TDCi or 1.8 TDCi 27 Feb 2009 (Forum)
    Well Mrs FC is ready for a change she has a 05 petrol Focus 2 Zetec Climate. We are looking to source through Ford Direct again. I fancy the Focus 3 Titanium Estate in Tango Orange! Greys and blues seem to show those supermarket scratches. Ford Direct seem to have mostly Titanium 1.8 TDCi's and 2.0 petrols, few 1.6 diesels or petrols.
  • Ford Focus (1998 - 2004) - 1999 1.8 Query after having coolant replaced 11 Feb 2009 (Forum)
    Today I had the orange coolant replaced on my ford focus (petrol). When the technician at the Ford garage was doing the job I heard him reving the engine and holding it there for about 1-2 minutes. Is it usual to do this when changing out the coolant and would it do any damage to the engine ?
  • Ford Focus (1998 - 2004) - 1999 1.8 petrol- coolant question ? 10 Oct 2008 (Forum)
    I own a Ford Focus 1.8 petrol and it is a T reg (1999) with nearly 77k miles. The coolant has never been completely renewed because Ford say 10 years for this. Also, because I am not the original owner, I think that the coolant pump is still the original and so I am worried that it might either fail or leak or both.
  • Ford Focus (1998 - 2004) - 2001/51 1.6 Zetec Cambelt 28 Jan 2008 (Forum)
    Hi All, I'm looking at buying a 2001/51 1.6 Zetec Ford Focus. Done 40k miles, but can't see evidence of cambelt change - it's from a franchised Ford dealer, and they can't seem to say for sure when it should have this done. They're telling me it that on a Zetec engine it's at 100k miles/10 years - is this correct?

  • Ford "Blue Print" colour 2 Nov 2004 (Forum)
    I've seen a Ford dealer advert (complete with photograph) on the internet for a low mileage June 2003 Focus, and so far (on paper) the only thing which I'm dubious about is the colour ~ Blue Print. It's not a current colour and I don't recall ever seeing a car that colour.
  • Ford USA pays $200m to SUV owner 7 Jun 2004 (Forum)
    The Times online reports that: A jury has ordered the car manufacturer Ford to pay $368 million (£200m) in damages to a Californian woman who was paralysed when her Explorer sports-utility vehicle rolled over. http://driving.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,12389-1134277,00.html The report says the driver argued that the Explorer's design made it prone to rolling over during common evasive driving manoeuvres, but quotes Ford as saying that it's not fair, because "any SUV would have rolled over under similar circumstances".
