Hello I drive a Ford Fiesta Ghia Bj. 96 with an Endura-E engine. Some time ago I had the problem that I had only up to 4000 revolutions train and then the power dropped or was reduced. On Aoobahn this means: I drive almost 140 and just under 4000 revolutions and the drive force leaves after almost 3700 turns and then he pulls again at once… without taking the foot off the gas… In the autumn I drove then on Hokenheim 400km and after 300km he started to jerk And then he drove over the 140km/h again. So he ran until yesterday… after I drove to my parents and everything was fine back home… Then I wanted to go back to Regensburg and the shit started again as described above,, sometimes he didn’t even have a train after that, or if I started and started immediately he pulls …. Sometimes also in the different corridors that he doesn’t go over 4000 revolutions… Manchman I turn him over the 4000 and then he drives again with full gas… Who knows what it is? I would now reset the control unit and look at the spark plugs…. Does anyone know anything better or more accurate? Thank you in advance…..

Hello, I reported about 4 weeks ago because of rust at the rear wheel box, typical disease, at the Fiesta^^ HAbe that in the summer yes times derusted abggeschilten and then taken so Kombispachtelmasse where harder and all was already there, which then can be completely dried, polished primed and varnished with paint and clear varnish. after that it looked quite neat. now half a year later the rust eats again through from the inside I guess once more strongly and the product bursts a yesterday I was with an old schoolmate who had the idea of welding etc. He thinks that it would be best to grind the product off again and to derust then mim welding device to weld and twist with a thick layer, then to prime the tinning cleanly, paint and clear paint over it, he could do this to me, and thought that this would be the cheapest alternative to dispel the rust again. what do you say? Do you think that is full of sine or should I use it as a tool? Then when we are already sweating, I would like to have a bad look not a complete bonnet extension but only on the headlights the apertures. We want to make the bad look ourselves and now I farge what is to be considered? that may not be too much because otherwise it could be annoying with the police or at the next Tüv visit. Where could you put it best without having to make a lot on the bonnet? I thought open the bonnet and Then from there the back points and bend the sheet in front of it. I am curious about your answers. Jens

Hello dear Motor-Talk friends, I always drive around in the Audi Forum, so nobody will know me here I’m driving an Audi A6 and A3 My junior should also get his first car for his 19th birthday. So far he has always been driving my wife’s Audi A3 140hp. Of course he doesn’t get any fat Audi or BMW! I thought of the Fiesta Sport with 80 or 70hp gasoline. I want to buy it new and he should not more than 14,000Euro one of you has experiences of how much a Ford dealer on the Fiesta currently has in percentages? What about the driving characteristics and especially the consumption of the 70 or 80hp petrol? Is there any extra that you should choose or leave out? For tips I would be very grateful, salutes chris

Hello, to the point… my girlfriend has bought a ford fiesta built year 96 of a renter with 30000km. now you need it net more but she doesn’t want to sell it either. what do you have to pay attention to everything if you put it off. Stands in a garage that is dry and you have to worry about the ripening net, because they have to be changed anyway. Stand time are min. 2.5 years!!! Now my question should I turn it on from time to time or rather not? before you put it off? What to note afterwards… First slowly warm up and then change oil? Achja motor I know now net exactly but were I think 1liter 75ps or less… Thanks for the info

Hello first of all, nice that you read this topic and want to help me/us. So it’s about a Fiesta conversion for the mile, so STVZO can be completely irrelevant to us. We bought a Fiesta from England, the complet was disassembled, he now has a grate tube frame and above it a GRP body. He has neither an engine nor a gearbox, only the Fiesta chassis. I will still put in photos. We want to turn this shell into the Ultimate 1/4mile weapon. It should at least a 200 PS engine in, unfortunately we don’t really have an idea which fits, etc. so we are still full in the planning phase. Motorcycle engine would be an alternative, but let’s see what you think of. So thank you and see you soon

Hello people, 1. Since I’ve been driving my car, the coolant indicator always overtakes me, I notice very often also now in the cold season that the pointer varies greatly, at low speeds and fluffy driving white in the city traffic he is always quite centrally in the NORMAL FELD, but you notice immediately when you are standing at a traffic light he goes immediately bit higher and if you drive higher also. sometimes even stands to the A. In stop and go in the party traffic as well. Now w we all want to ask the other mk4 and fiesta drivers if he is fluctuating with you. Defected water pump and clogged coolers can be ruled out. 2. The belts just don’t always roll up independently as you are used to, think you know what I mean. can you do something about it because the annoying bitle in the dark after the belt to fiddle. 3. What kind of tyre air pressure do you drive at 155/70 75T R13. have there c a 2,1bar front and rear in my instruction is the tyre pressure as I have seen only for 185 tyres indicated. 4. then I noticed quite often that you often don’t get the 1gang in when the engine is cold and wants to switch it down at 15kmh in 1gang. why is that so?? 5. What are the costs of original Ford aluminium wheels for the Mk4? can also be used, should the 155 tyres fit on it. So that’s for sure with all these questions for everyone, am curious and Looking forward to your contributions. Greeting Jens

Hello, I bought my 1st car a week ago. An old fiesta 1.1l 37kw built year 89. The car is egtl. still quite good. After I did not know how old the oil is already I had an oil change directly incl. filter.. I hope to have done something good to the engine with it… But now I have a few questions, would be happy if someone can help me: 1. The temperature indicator is unfortunately defective, always stays on cold. Does it make sense to do something? If j a, what do I need or what could it be? And maybe someone can tell me how I can fix it, have a scrap space around the corner 😉 What bothers me the most, however, if I drive over a hubel or don’t drive cleanly I hear from inside a dull noise.. as if the exhaust would be loose, since the car has no exhaust, so the tailpipe is missing, I wonder what that can be? maybe someone has an idea? Then I have another question ;-): Subject Cooling Water, the Wi nter kommt…. The cooling water tank is brimming, but the antifreeze knife doesn’t show anything (does not move upwards is like a pinzette), now I ask myself if I can just tilt in frost protection and if so how much? or should you just change the water? Doesn’t look messy and has a light red hue.. Then I have another question: I come with a tank filling (41 liters) about 350 kilometers away, now I always hear something of And what can you recommend to me so that I have some longer of the car? I am grateful for every tip, tuev is still running for half a year and would be happy if he gets through again 😉 Thank you very much for your answers now. buedi

Hello, this morning it had a good -6 degree. had to be free-crazen and ran the car by the way. When I then drove and direction Bundestraße I noticed that my fiesta had trouble to come on tours, unless I would have kicked him full but should not be with a cold engine. I used to drive the track more often in the same driving style but this morning nothing went, simply sluggish. also at the end of the week on the car he had had trouble to come on tours more than 15 0kmh lt tacho were not in it. normal white he always runs quite well for his 60ps. But I also have to add that the car was moved very little in the last few weeks, even a few days not even every day only 4km city traffic in the morning and evening to the Park&Right parking spaces and the engine doesn’t even get really warm. Does anyone know what? PS: spark plugs, oil change with filter was executed at the beginning september Greeting Jens

After only 500km : Nerviges squeak/klapper in the interior. Cause: belt suspension in the rear. Plastic shading rubs on the vehicle. Solution at the handle: plastic shading cut something off (That’s no joke!) After 1000km : dipped light without function. Cause: Error in the control unit Solution: In the control unit what was “programmed” After 2000km : antenna completely chewed. Cause: Marten Solution : Exchanged for aluminum antenna. Opinion of the hander: That’s the case with all car models so that the PS: Then I would take another material. Alu, for example! After 2500km : Engine just goes off after cold start. Cause according to Ford: I would use the ignition key incorrectly. After 2600km: Problem still exists Cause: ECU solution: Ford wanted it to “new” programming. But if it changed after a written complaint: Now I ask myself if I should make it too easy for them and turn to the newspaper … only one consideration… I’ll report if there’s a new one.
