Good evening Ford municipality, Since my leather steering wheel of my MK3 was already quite worn out I got myself a brand new steering wheel. The dismantling of the airbag was quite easy, had to loosen only 2 Torx screws at the steering wheel back side. (so far managed) TO MY QUESTION: Hanging on the airbag (backside inside) 3 cables, one could easily be clipped, but the yellow colored other 2 can only be plugged directly at the airbag unit. disconnected battery ??? Bzw. has anyone ever changed their MK3 steering wheel? THANK YOU for your information. Greetings Ronny

Heating, thermostat, coolant temperature sensor, temperature indicator, heating control valve
I have a Scorpio Ez 3/92, 2l DOHC 88KW/120 hp. The heating barely got warm and the hose from the thermostat to the cooler is not really hot. The coolant temperature indicator has been standing since I bought the car (at 178000 km – today 202000 km) always at the bottom of the white field of the indicator. Strange was and is that the temperature indicator even in the city traffic and in the traffic jam does not increase a little, but even further down to just below the white indicator field could also the coolant temperature sensor be defective? The heater only worked half-way if it wasn’t exactly cold. I changed the thermostat and installed one of ATU. My old thermostat had a vent valve, which was not from ATU. Was that a wrong one? I then let the engine warm up. It only came out of the ventilation nozzles for a short time. Otherwise only cold air. The hose to the cooler is now really hot. I often read about a heating control valve. Does the engine have one? I have no air conditioning. Where does it sit? Could the problem be this, or is it just the exchange of the heater cooler (heat exchanger)? Who can help and has had similar problem?

Register winter ice cream or not ???
Hello people after a long silence I get back to you and need a little information since my Mondi is driving perfectly after many small defective ones. I don’t have much to write about it. but I’m glad that everything fits again (knock on wood just three times) that it stays that way. now to the question so since yesterday I have my winter tires on 205 / 55 / 16 on steel rims(looks at the K**** but is only the winter) however as already known in the new vehicle only one size for matures is registered my tyre dealer said I would have to ask Ffh for an application or such a safety certificate but I would have to pay with 15 eurons which seems to me personally very expensive for a sheet of paper to print out. therefore my question I get problems at the next police check ?? I have to have the matures entered at the Tüv or does this funny certificate and I get the only one at the Ffh? Thanks f or your laboring in advance, and grinned to all Milek.

Seat heating: wobble contact or temperature dependent?
Hei Leutz, my seat heating is spinning… the last days at temperatures of 0°C she didn’t go, today it’s just +12 and she’s going again… Question: Can it be that the seat heating is “somehow” connected to the climate control, or (outside) temperature is dependent on it? Perhaps so: At low temperatures it heats more… With today’s cars with CAN bus and all possible automatisms you never know what is related to it. Or is that just a wobble contact in the wiring? This is why I’m not running back to the WS again and only reaping “dumb” answers, but I’m also prepared for them.

Autom. Abbl. rear-view mirror in Mondeo MK3
Moin together, I have in my Mondeo MK3 BJ 2001 this automatically blinding rear view mirror in it. Last winter it worked as far as I know without problems, but lately the part just doesn’t hide anymore, unless I washed my car Actually, the mirror should only have a sensor that points backwards and determines the brightness of the descendants and one forwards, which maybe determines how bright it is outside. At least I think that it is so fu Does any of you know this problem, or does anyone have any idea what that might be about? Because every week in the car wash I find it too expensive.

8. Workshop and no idea
Under “Mondeo automatic problems” I have already described my problems with my car in detail but now new ones are coming up. Was on the highway 140 km/h fuel consumption 9.5 l diesel , wanted to burn it again free but at 190km/h was close (drive a 130 hp TDCi) until it was on 190 it also took a while, the fuel consumption 10 l . The next day I was refueling, 19l for 200 km , so 9.5 l . Was today in the workshop the master has examined 4 hours everything but also everything, no But then, gear oil on the gearbox and under the car, he meant that only from the transmission ventilation can step out which hangs on the baterie box. So I did a motor wash to that I did not move it any more, the water must first evaporate but it still consumes so much. Has one of you had such a problem? I have now set the AGR tight because I have at least no more jerking . MFG PS. Wanted today my Selling a car but 650€ if everything is fine I was a little bit a little and it’s not all right.

ASR in the Mondeo ? how do you see the
Hello to the moon riders. I’ve had the Mondeo 2.0 TDCI since last week. Year of construction 29.07.2004 According to an inscription the car ESP,ASR should have. now because. Yesterday in the underground garage, floor was wet, or wet, is such an artificial varnish on the floor — I gave gas while curving, and the wheels or RAd ? I don’t know anymore. Now I want to know, and put a “burn out ” ;-), so let the wheels scrape for a short while. since I had to go to the workshop today anyway, because my brakes rubbing — I got new disks and pads in (on guarantee) I approached the master — because of ASR and wheels spinning — he disappeared with my car again in the workshop, 5 minutes later he came back with a car — and said the ABS and ASR would form a unity — the car would have ASR ?!?! And that I couldn’t provoke that way by means of “burn out” would only go on a smooth bottom if wheels would reach differently.?!?! Well — I don’t see it — looks that one of you ? gruss Andreas

Mondeo ( MK2 ) V& recommended?
Hello, I wanted to ask, and experience, what you think of the Ford Mondeo (MK2 so the newer one already ) with V6. I wanted to buy the V6 machine with 125kw, now I want to know what you think, or if the number smaller ( 2.0?! ) would also do. A well-known one of me (apprentice at FOrd ) meant that the V6 were particularly vulnerable and “basicly” standing in the workshop — is that true or can I myself without bad certain e I’m happy with the mondeo anschi (my father has one himself, but as 90 hp diesel) Would be nice if I would get a few tips (Suche I didn’t really find something )… just know that it should not be an automatic (but I don’t want to have one either ) Greeting: RAPHI

No more TDCI 2.0
Hello and good evening, had already described the problem with the sound of the V-belt disc and tensioner. mechanic 74 then gave me a good tip and what about a TSI of Ford, but my f.FH doesn’t know this technical service info yet and wants to be smart. The problem is that the tensioner was changed by the Mondeo TDCI in the warranty already 3 times and also the V-belt disc on the KW has been renewed.( whether the new version, knew No one ) Only the rib belt has not been renewed yet. Since I would have liked to repair the noise, in the stand gas a strong hum, with which one f.FH before every traffic light, I asked the f.FH what this costs and whether there is guarantee or culant. Answer, the 2 year warranty expired at the end of July and whether the E-part 3 or 5 times was changed does not matter. So I can get 5% culant at a good 70TKm. Now I would like to know who can get more details about the TSI and where do I get the part number from the new version of the V-belt disc. Perhaps you have a similar experience and or advice. Thank you very much!

Must be removed during automatic transmission change
Ford Transit Connect EZ. 11.2019, 1,5l, automatic transmission I got a new automatic transmission about 10,000km ago (08.2022), now there were clear oil stains under the car today. Short into the workshop, diagnosis gasket oil pan has to be new. My question would be if the oil pan had to be removed during the automatic transmission change 3 months ago. Thanks for the answers.
