My fat guy doesn’t make any bitches, even at -16°C.. But today it took a long time until he starts, but otherwise everything is top! What do you look like? Do you have problems with (extreme) cold start? Problems with any parts etc. caused by the cold? PS: Drive around without heating!

Total engine damage after 30,000km
I’ve already read a lot about the blessings of the new, completely revised 2.0 turbodiesel and would like to contribute another episode: We were surprisingly stranded with our 2018 motorhome at the end of April: Rugging while giving gas, then only power up to 60 kmh, after a short distance it went down to Vmax of 20 kmh. No smoke, no interference, but bubbles in the cooling liquid tank when giving gas. Towed and the workshop said: injector defective. Then ha It took them 1.5 weeks to separate this from the engine block without any accident; it was totally coked. So today the rescue call: Injector is out – but pistons are shot. After 30,000km, with absolutely moderate driving mode (Vmax=100 kmh) and 4 times oil change within the period. Just as I read this, a total damage at this mileage seems to be nothing unusual. The repair workshop far from home calls for the installation of a replacement engine about 9000 EUR. Ford in the village says 10,000 EUR PLUS. The first repairer offers its services for 8000 EUR. EVERYONE I called said “Oh, we know that!”. Apart from the fact that I could constantly beat my head against the wall about this, the question remains: What to do? And (I hardly dare to ask) there may be any more cost-effective alternatives – apart from the big press?

Transit Custom 2.2 TDCI DPF Regeneration not possible
Servus, have the problem with our Ford Transit Custom 2.2 TDCI that the MKL lights up. I read out the error with our Hella Gutmann device: 2 Errors: Glow plug Cylinder 3 particle filters full wanted now regeneria, for which the tester wants 80°C temperature. However, this temperature does not get despite highway full gas. The pointer in the cluster instrument had its 90°C on the highway. When standing at the red traffic light the termperature then went down again to approx. 60°C. What is with me k aputt, resp. what is to be done? Is it the thermostat, whereby I think the control the pointer in the instrument cluster, therefore it seems ok. My mistake is apparently the one defective temperature sensor that reports a wrong value to the diagnostic device.

Automatic switching on of the disc heater <3°C
With the MK3 the front and rear window heating switches on automatically at an outside temperature below 3°C. This makes sense, if the car is standing outside and the windows are icy or fogged, however, I park in the garage at night and therefore must switch off the front and rear window heating every time after starting the engine. This bothers me very much, and therefore I wanted to ask if there is a possibility to disable this automatic turn on ?

Focus ST Introducing
Hello finally got my ST on Tuesday and wanted to ask how that is with the drive in. Because my dealer told me there is no driving nose anymore. but I heard that you must not turn the engine over 3000 rpm the first 1000km. In the operating instructions there is also nothing exact about it. And there is something I have to pay attention to in terms of turbo because I’ve never driven turbo engines before. I would be interested in how you did this report to me from eu This is the case in the United Kingdom and the United Kingdom.

Cabbage
Hello, I have a question. I ordered a hoodbra for my Focus, and now my question doesn’t scratch my hood? Is the frostproof? Wash system safe? I got it because it looks pretty good and of course because of the stones. Would be stupid to take it down every time I want to wash the car or it gets cold. Greeting Michael

Evaporator Kaputt/Amaturenbrett selbst entwickeln
Hi! Now the defect was finally found in my climate… 99% of the evaporators. It’s not really that expensive, the part. Only it’s supposed to be behind the amature board… and for repair the workshop would take 1-2 days! Because of nem part for 100€… :-X I thought now I build the amature board myself, let the evaporator swap and build again… Where exactly is the evaporator??? And what really needs to be done???

Hello guys, I have the problem that the stand gas is a little too high about 850 rpm and if I want to start now pushes the automatic vigorously forward and it is hardly possible to drive normally (if he has stood overnight it is even worse since the cold start Automic lets turn in even higher ) now my question where can I or can you put down the idle at all so at 600 rpm it would have to get better – I think. If you have driven for 5 min kan ma The car has only run 76 tkm and has maintained checkbook 1. Hd. I just bought the car and am very satisfied to this lack, and when I think about the coming winter I fear to get problems on smooth roads many times! Therefore HELP PLEASE must be possible to reduce the speed!! I say thank you already in advance and hope you can help me further Greeting vofi
