  • ford mondeo turbo diesel 22 Sep 2003 (Forum)

  • Ford CD6000 Radio/CD Player 17 Sep 2002 (Forum)
    I have a Portable Mini Disc Player that I would like to play through my Car Audio unit: Ford CD6000. This unit has a multipin connector on the rear for a CD multichanger. Does anyone know the pin outs of the connector? Is it possible to fool the CD unit into thinking there is a multi-changer present by for example linking pins and then feeding the audio input into other pins as though it was the autochanger?
  • Ford Ranger/Garden Centre/Tow Bar 15 Jul 2002 (Forum)
    I am stuggling with endless trips to the dump with tons of garden cuttings, bits of trees etc. Also Ikea's delivery service is a rip-off at £25 a go. I saw a Ford Ranger on the way to work today. Looks like a possibility. Does anyone have any views on these? However I don't really want to change cars. So my questions are... How much do tow bars cost to fix?

  • Ford Fiesta Eco boost - 1.0 (2014) - turbo replacement 24 Aug 2022 (Forum)
    Hi All, I've been having acceleration issues with my ford fiesta Eco boost. It just doesn't have the power it used to have, and it really struggles to pick up speed on inclines. It's still fine for short local trips but the motorway is a no go. I've had one garage take a look and they thought it was the timing belt but I decided to get a second opinion from a ford garage.

  • Ford Mondeo - Unleaded - Smell of fumes/exhaust inside the car 3 Nov 2014 (Forum)
    But when I told the Ford garage about this, they said that fumes cannot get into the car as the under carraige of  the car is covered so as to not allow fumes to get into the car. I am really confused as to what may be causing this, as it is giving me a slight headache and I have to open both front windows even when its raining.
