Ford Focus 1.6 zetec mk2 - Ford Focus mk2: Problem engaging reverse. 22 May 2013 (Forum)
Hi, I bought a 2nd hand mk2 focus from a local ford dealership a couple of weeks ago. I have noticed that sometimes reverse gear wont engage. it seems to happen about 1 in 7 times, which is about once a day for me. I took it back to the dealership yesterday and they told me they couldn't find anything wrong with it. they said that the issue was caused when the teeth on the discs dont align properly, and that by tugging on the gearstick a i pull up the clutch, it should just pop into gear. i was told that as mk2 focuse dont have synchromesh for reverse gear, all of them are suceptible to this problem, so i should just 'get used to it'. -

Ford Focus - Ford Focus 1.6 TDCi 3rd Injector issue?? 11 Apr 2012 (Forum)
Hi, I recently bought a Ford Focus 1.6 TDCi (90) 2006 model with 71000 miles. The car was running well for about 7 weeks and i was getting great mileage - about 700 or so from a tank. In the 8th week, i noticed a hissing noise coming from the engine and upon further inspection found it coming from the 3rd injector, I also noticed there was a black film/build up around it. -

I have a strange problem on a Ford Focus which hopefully someone can shed some light on for me. A few weeks ago when we had the cold spell before xmas the battery failed. Luckily I had a spare which matched the requirements so I fitted it. -

Ford Transit Connect (2002 - ) - 08 1.8 TDCi poor response at low RPM 10 Aug 2009 (Forum)
Help! I've got a Ford Transit Connect fitted with the Ford 1.8 TDCi engine, 110ps. It's done 10,000 miles. The response to the throttle when the engine is at idling speed is terrible...I'd say bordering on dangerous. If you are waiting at a junction, engine idling, in first gear and a gap comes up in the traffic.....put foot on gas and the engine does nothing for a half second, then lazily spools up....dare to let in the clutch at this point and you'll wait an eternity for any acceleration. -
Ford Focus II (2004 - 2007) - 06 1.6 Advice please on buying car ? 27 May 2009 (Forum)
I live in the UK and saw an 06 Ford Focus 1.6 (115 bhp) LX with 30 000 miles at my local Ford dealer. The asking price was £6499. As my budget is £5000 plus my 1999 T reg Ford Focus they said that they would give me £1200 for my old car which would reduce the price to £5299. -

Leaky Ford Focus 21 Jun 2007 (Forum)
All the door and window seals look OK - the drain holes in the bottom of the doors are all un-blocked and it is not getting into the front passenger footwell, which I guess rules out the pollen filter thing. I'm SO cheesed off with this car leak that I will NEVER EVER again buy another Ford. I had a ford Escort which leaked in the boot, a ford Granada before that which also leaked in the boot and now this piece of junk! Any suggestions would be appreciated!! Kind regards. Leo -
Ford Focus Rear Parking Sensors 6 Mar 2007 (Forum)
I'd like to fit rear parking sensors to my new model Ford Focus and would welcome advice or recommendations from anyone who has already done this. The ideal solution would be to replace the black rubbing strip on the bumper with the one from Ford with 4 sensors already mounted, plus of course the control box and buzzer. -
