Hello, today made a Sunday trip. I gave my Max the spores on the BAB once. Unfortunately, I was a bit disappointed. According to Tacho, the car only came up to 200km/h (about 3200 rpm). Everywhere I hear the 2.0 TDCi’s run according to Tacho between 210 and 220km/h. The car now has 7000km on the clock. Do I still need some patience until it has the full performance? However, drive also a lot of city traffic. Is it probably because of it? Otherwise a cool car, which s is just fun and only a few small things to complain about. Greetings cappimax

Servus municipality, how should I say … BULLSHIT ! Home away from work, federal road, speed approx. 90-100, slight ground wave … a loud >Peng< .... and now a 5-10 cm long crack in the front window (left, from the edge towards the middle of the disc at head height). The bang did not belong after a stone blow (have also found no corresponding "crater" on the disk), I guess rather a tension crack that has unloaded, if I also have to confess that I Is there similar experiences in the FoFo II / ST community, or have I had bad luck again ...? I hope to contact my Ford dealer will be guaranteed. Until then ....

Hello, Ride a FoFo 1.6 74 kw Bj. 2001 (before the facelifting) The FoFo is actually running quite well. Only after I had 11 accidents with the car in 3 years (not myself in debt and up to 2 cases every time driver flight), I can not sell it anymore. Offers were at 3,200 to 3,600 Euro. So, we come to the essential: I lose for about half a year servo fluid. That is now so much half a litre at 1500 km, that I now have to make the servo pump well or badly. Now I have read in another post that there is probably a sealing ring to order individually at Ford. For cost reasons would probably be of advantage over a change of the pump about 300,00 Euro at PIT STOP. Can someone give me the spare part number and the price of the seal? Is it at all possible for a loan to exchange the self? For a few treats I would be grateful Greet oli_schmidt

Question about manual air conditioning – fraudulent delusion? Hello, we bought a new used Focus 1.4 trend yesterday. Now I have a question about (manual) air conditioning, which he probably should have (according to seller). Lt. manual should have an A/C switch to turn on it. My model definitely does not have an AC switch (only the air switch is available) and it didn’t get really cool today (outside it had a good 25 to 29 °C) and inside the car it was good and like 30+ °C… Close to a Wiel we sometimes had the feeling that it got colder. So, maybe I didn’t quite understand the principle, but please explain how the manual climate works and how I operate it. Thank you!

Hello together, who of you drives the DVD navigation system of Ford in his Focus? What experiences did you have with it? Are you satisfied? What do the updates cost? Are there also experiences in connection with the hands-free device or voice control? Thank you Birdmaster

I have read in the forum for some models and equipment the cables for the footroom light are available. With me the sockets are already mounted it only has to be plugged in the light bulb.http://www.mynetcologne.de/~nc-moschma/leucht.JPG I don’t know which configuration these are available, but a quick look into the footroom shows you the available lamp sockets.http://www.mynetcologne.de/~nc-moschma/leucht_2.JPG You need to have these plug lamps at the Ford I’m going to get you a dealer.

Hello people, since the temperatures are a bit fresher in the morning, it clacks with me so for a quarter of an hour when I drive over bumps, and there is plenty here. The clacking comes from the dashboard, for example from the area behind or above the speedometer / speedometer. My question: has or already had someone this clacking, and if yes, it could be eliminated and if so how and what was it? Bzw. if not, how can I look there myself, or should one be better. At the end of this month, my extended new car warranty expires; that would have to be covered, right? I would be grateful for advice, because I have little desire to hear the whole cold season early and late. Otherwise, everything is in the green area with my C-Max at the moment. Greetings.

My C-Max now needs winter tyres and I want to take the rims off the summer tyres.Should 205/55R16 be on it again.Is there a tyre manufacturer who produces a tyre with wheel protection (taxi tyres) in the dimension? I only know the Bridgestone LM18 which is not produced in the dimension. For the summer 18″er should then be on the C-Max. As a rim weave a rim from Ronal in front of LZ Kristallsiber with the tyres 225/40R18. are they modified or can they be installed and registered in this way???

Hello C-Mäxer, I have a C-Max BJ 10/2005. In the generation should actually be the Knorkeleln, knarzen and squeaking of door seals of the past. Think. Only a bottle of Ford chemistry for rubbing in (of seals .-) was there, although after the 3rd lubricating, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Hi, with my 1.8 focus year 98 I have been observing the following phenomenon for about 3 weeks: When I start the car every now and then the hands of the speedometer once completely off, then 2 sec stand and go back to the normal position. (i.e. only immediately after the start) then everything works perfectly. To my knowledge, this pointer rash can be done manually by holding the reset button from the speedometer and turning on the ignition. But why does this come to me? automatic? That’s never been like this.
