  • Moisture/fungus in the trunk

    I had my Ford Escort ’95; 3 doors; sliding roof; rear spoiler, almost half a year outside. Because I lacked the money for repair measures and the TüV, I then registered the car and left it on the yard. In the meantime I rented a garage and looked into the car after a long time and then had to find out that my suitcase was actually very wet. Already so wet that I can send the car to the hairdresser (kotz). I still noticed that I was the rubber of the rear window already has wild growth. But since always moisture comes in I exclude this as a watch thing. Can someone help me? The car was dry before when I was driving with it.

  • I get problems-entered 175 and now 185

    Hi! Ford Escort Kombi 75 HP Year of manufacture 97 I have the question because I bought the car 3 months ago. 8 compartment tyres. And today I changed and saw that the summer tires 185 have instead of 175 (winter tires) as in the letter. Since I still have 3 months probation time I do not want to take any risk. I get problems there. Or I have to change and register again.

I don’t get the dinger off. my problem: on the left I don’t have any sound anymore. to find out if it’s on the radio itself, or on the cabling/boxing, I want to connect another ford radio. add question: can you damage the lock with self-made unlocking devices? 4 to 5 MAl has worked, now the thing wants to go left can the original tools help? help!! thanks ;-))

  • Diesel or gasoline?

    Can someone help me with a selection? I’m short from buying a Ford Focus C-Max, now I’m still not sure which engine I should take. 2.0 TDCI with 136 hp or 1.8 or 2.0 gasoline with 125 hp /145 hp? My annual mileage performance – about 9 to 11 Tkm. Now I drive every year for at least 20 days with the camping car, does the petroler manage that? But the diesel is much more expensive. For every good advice I am grateful.

  • Ford Fockus 1.6 115Ps survey

    Hello I have bought a Ford Focus this year the car is 2 years old I have now had to attend a workshop appointment because the track rods are defective and that with 26000km I noticed during the observation of the operating temperature of the motor that the engine takes a very long time to get very warm and also a temperature drop occurs at downhill. I addressed the problem in my Ford workshop and the workshop master told me that Termostard where the T emperature controlled by the engine electronically controlled while and that was normal, the engine would be already sufficiently warm enough with 70 degrees so I can’t believe someone also has such a problem the focus is built 10.04

  • Major ignition problem

    Hello, first of all data 1.8 Zetec 105 HP Wednesday I drove ales great, Thursday evening I wanted to start the engine there is the following pedestal. At the first try it was as who the battery training is so it sounded like. Since the bateri but not his lesson I tried to start again. Now the starter has pulled through nicely but the motor did not jump. Today I then looked after the pincers which were wet. since I still stand a 1.8 Zetec 115 HP h Abe I have converted the crankshaft sensor, camshaft sensor, and the ignition coil together with the zün cable. still nothing. After some start searches he has reported himself with a lute Boff through the suction bridge. After that I cleared the valve cover and saw that the intake camshaft was adjusted by approx. 5°. I re-arranged the camshafts but against only a boff through the suction bridge. What can the being be

  • Corrosion at the threshold (arguably concealed deficiency)

    My Ka is rusted through both door sills. This was not mentioned by the seller in any way! The places have always been covered by the door seals and I have now only discovered it because I wanted to clean under it. In several places it is completely guttered! That is a maliciously concealed lack, right? What can I do there? Under these circumstances, the purchase price of 1700 € already seems to me a bit high. And only with this I mentioned it: The seller is a private person and the delay (an ADAC form) is still before me. It says: The seller guarantees […] that the car during the time it was in his possession did not suffer any accident damage and no other damage […]. I am grateful for every tip!
