  • ka 2018 or predecessor model

    Moin, first good evening, I’m new here in the forum. So far I’ve driven rather big cars, my last was a Amarok leasing vehicle. Now I’m away from spending money and want to buy a Ka+. There’s the current Cool & Sound model with aluminum rims, tinted discs, park pilot in the rear as a new car at an affordable price at the Ford dealer. Now, however, the new Ka 2018 is coming. He is advertised with better rubber seals, better coordinated chassis, a facelift and above all: a new three-cylinder 1.2 Ti-VC 85 hp which is supposed to have a bit more throughput than the four-cylinder. what do you think about it? The three-cylinder EcoBoost is highly praised. only this is, as far as I understand it, a three-cylinder without turbo. how will it run compared to the four-cylinder? What do you think, rather hit the now favorable offer or wait for the new version … The black Schaaf !

  • Accident damage at the front Ford Ka RU8/MK2 (stool, headlights, etc.)

    Hi all together, I’ve driven up someone with our Ka. Now the little sweetheart is already 10 years old and 200,200 km down, so close to the economic total damage. I was already at a free workshop. Therefore, headlights, bumper and carrier would have to be new. Costs 1,000 – 1,100 EUR. That makes no sense any more. I will take the car to another workshop, but it is further away, which is why the assessment pulls out a little bit. Therefore, I’m just trying to I’m trying to understand what the workshop meant by carriers. I’ve been researching it so far that there is a lock carrier that is basically the frame behind the bumper and the radiator, headlights, bumper holds. And then there’s probably another bumper, right? Can jeman d with the photos of which the carrier has to be changed? Otherwise, someone said that you could stick the holders of the headlights with 2K glue. What do you think? I would just come nearer to a black bumper for 120 EUR. Think if I already bought them so that I might change them myself. Is this difficult if you don’t have two left hands? I would be very grateful for your assessments. And if more photos help, do i I’d love to. Best regards to David

  • Oil filler smells like gasoline ?????

    Hello together, I filled up some oil with my KA earlier and I noticed that the cap (oil cover) is wet. Smelled about it once and there was petrol still dripping down there. There were only two/three drops but it was quite clear gasoline. Is this normal or should I worry about it? Oh yes, the oil consumption is also not by bad parents, in Novenber 2011 oil change made and now already a total of 2 liters refilled, ride only short distance, about 12 km. Ford K a Bj 08/1997 km Stand 135000 km. Thanks for your hopeful answers……

  • heavy noise at ground waves

    Hello, I bought a Ka (HU very fresh) that had been renewed a lot before (crossbars, dome cover rubber etc.). He drives well, but: If I drive a little faster over ground waves e.g. patching up and the car springs out, it pops, as if a pipe against the rams. The sound is violent and difficult to locate, but probably at the front left. Yesterday we had the Ka at the seller (dealer) on the stage and did not find the cause. – Neither the Auspu ff anything else can beat against somewhere. – All screws and nuts of the wheel suspension and dome lid are fixed. Does anyone have any idea what such a bang can cause when springing out and what can be done about it? LG. noku1

  • Air in the Diesel System

    Please give me an explanation where this can come from and sorry for the somewhat longer text.. The transe arranges itself a wolf and does not start. I put a transparent hose from the diesel filter to the pump and found that a lot of air is pumped with it when the air is ventilated.. new diesel filter installed again still tries a lot of air in the hose forever. Two transparent hoses connected to the pump and nailed into a canister and see that Transe runs. Now I wanted it I’m going to tap the diesel filter housing but what’s going to break it? The diaphragm of the vent pump looks like tip top. Maybe someone has a tip for me what I can still look at before I order such a big case. Thanks for your help.

  • Refuelling problems

    My colleague just has the problem that the pump gun jumps off after each litre of fuel? He drives the Transit Custom, 8/2016, 170 HP for his 2 years. He drove with the FFH to the gas station and the master has fueled himself and has also skipped off for a long time. On Friday the filling nozzle was changed, on Saturday my colleague wanted to fill up but the gun still jumps off. Has this problem also had who?

  • 2024 Tourneo Custom vs Transit Custom [PKW]

    Hello together, as the headline says, I am looking for the main differences between Transit Custom and Tourneo Custom (2024er). When I torture the configurator (170hp, four-wheel, 320-L1) and almost everything that goes on, the difference doesn’t quite come to me yet…. I have the Titanium-X, the sport ( www.ford.de/s/jngm ) then the trail ( www.ford.de/s/jnVL ) Ok, there is probably no B&O and panoramic roof, but otherwise? Clear other colors (but black is black) ), different seating design, but otherwise? Do I just overlook something serious? Or where do the 1000€ difference come from (and on transit there are also more %) Greetings

  • High fuel consumption

    a nice good evening in the round, I know this topic “What consumes your custom” has already been addressed countless times. The values given here vary also between 7 and 10 L to 100/km. I drive a Torneo Custom Built 2018 / 170 Ps Automatic and my consumption is around 10 L/100km. Also on long distance / highway the consumption is the 10 liters… The friendly thinks it is a cabinet wall / heavy etc… no error deposited, normal. Now we have since few Where In the company, Ford Transit, with 170 Ps, however, switch. The consumption of the cars lies around the 9 liters/100km are fully charged and are certainly not driven sparingly. What I notice now is my car, in position N, without any electric consumer, warmly driven in the current consumption indicator indicates 0.9-1.1l/h. The value never goes lower. Our company cars show values between 0.5-0.6l/an. Is mine constantly in the cleaning phase?

  • Ford Ruckles at lower load range during acceleration

    Hello we have been having problems with our Ford Transit 2012 2.2 Diesel 125hp FWD for months now. The engine is an AT engine from Ford with now almost 15,000KM. It’s only the engine new, not all attachments. For about 3 months we have been in the lower load range to give in to the gas. If then you don’t give any more gas it shrugs like this. You also hear a sucking noise from the engine compartment when it jerks… It’s like if you would tap on the accelerator quickly and only briefly. Ollgas it is completely gone. The AGR is new, but I still know if they have cleaned everything, but the engine is new. I drive almost only Premium Diesel. Another problem is that the car starts cold 1A and very clean, as soon as it is warm it is bumpy up to the point that it does not start at all and needs a new attempt. Twice the engine just went out in idle. We were already in some workshops but none has solved the problem, a master said it clearly But I don’t know what to do without a fault in the system. LMM is also new. Coupling and ZMS too, is not important but is new Diesel filter is also new. I am really a bit perplexed. We have no exhaust smoke and the injectors are perfect according to a Ford workshop. Does anyone have an idea or the same problem? I would be very grateful because I don’t want to run into the next workshop where the next part is exchanged.

  • Escort drains directly when starting.

    Hello guys! I have a question: Since Saturday the escort from my girlfriend is drinking directly at the start, when I try to start it, he comes short, jerks and then goes out again, if I let him turn further and pull the fuse for the fuel pump, he also comes again for 1-2 seconds and then nothing again, so I assume that it simply injects too much gasoline. earlier on I switched to the advice of a friendly amac employee the temperature sensor, h Did someone from you have an idea about what this might be and especially how I can check and exclude components that might be in question. Tomorrow I wanted to check the Lambda probe next time, does someone have a guide? Still a few data about the vehicle Ford Escort 1.4 bj. 92, 52 KW Tool technology I am very well equipped, multimeters, a box Pils, a radio and a painful experience in screwing I also have. I thank you already in advance. MfG Helios
