  • Help! Buy what Focus??

    Hi, I want a focus and the dealer of my trust has three models that I have taken into the short choice. Can you tell me something about price/performance? How would you decide? I drive about 8000 KM /year mainly city. Diesel would then run out of +- 0 after my bill. I am already testing the tournament and the diesel. The tournament was for my terms the more beautiful driving feeling, although the diesel was a bit more splashy but somehow rougher and louder What I noticed negatively are the standard seats. I felt much more comfortable in the sports seats. I haven’t driven the sports limosine yet, but he doesn’t have an ESP, which somehow annoys me. At the prices the dealer does not want to do anything with any of the vehicles, which exceeds 500 EUR. Here are the three cars:Number 1 Number 2 Number 3 Thank you in advance for your help!

  • Ford Focus C-Max (problems about problems)

    I bought a Ford Focus C-Max 2.0 TDCi Ghia (136hp) about a 3/4 year ago! Currently KM stand 28 000. At first I was satisfied with the car, but then the problems started!!!! I also switched on the lawyer now!!! Interfering noises in the interior: Amature board, center console, nicking driver seat, radio cover, belt, seals,……! Engine dropouts! Light swings!!! Brake assistants problems! Recall action due to rear windscreen wiper engine! Radio spins ö fters! and, and, and the list of defects is as long as it is to despair! The company has already fixed many of the defects, but there are always new ones on and it seems to take no end!! Would like to read from you comments, whether this is an individual case, as the company says, or whether the C-Max is a common problem car. Would I be happy about many comments, as I want to get on the toes of the company!!!!!!

  • Wheel change Tourneo Custom Titanium 2018

    Servus, next week I get my bus from the reimporter, because the thick one is delivered with summer tires, I bring my winter tires with me. On site I have to look for a workshop or to start myself with a jack. Now I have read the instructions for the bike change, but somehow did not get warm with the sketches. To this end I read here the other day that you can demolish such a heavy car properly if you raise it wrong… Therefore my question e: Who can upload me the times 2 photos from the back and front and sign me where I can start the jack, or where the tire fusher can lift the car if he lifts it up. Thank you !!

  • Change from 2021 V-Class?

    Hello dear community, I’m annoyed by the noise and squeakyness of the brakes of my V-Class… I’m potentially considering a switch to another bus with 8 seats (4 children). I definitely like the trunk of the V-Class (long version), so three Euroboxes fit side by side (very handy for all the small goods). Is there someone here who might have already changed and can therefore compare the V-Class against the TC? the trunk? Personally I like the TC Titanium X. Thank you for a short feedback.

  • quick down/up

    hello, drive the focus ghia tournament. with me on the driver side the quick down/up function is defective, i.e. the windows no longer drive automatically, but I have to hold the button. thus I can no longer close the window per fb. I was told that the engine is defective. I have now found an interesting article at ebay. however, the actuator comes from a three doorr. can I still use it? quick down/up has the focus on the driver side d Here’s the link: http://cgi.ebay.de/…1619QQihZ015QQcategoryZ38729QrdZ1QQcmdZViewIt’s just the engine, not the complete window lifter system.But as far as I know, only the motor contains this quick up/down technology, right? mfg markus

  • Seats of the Ford Focus are disaster !!

    Hello, I drove a Ford Focus test, nice car, from the inside quite nice, good chassis, but the seats were a disaster !!! Both my girlfriend and I had after 20 minutes Ford Focus still driving 3 hours pain in the lumbar spine. There were the seats of my Golf 4 really much better. Unfortunately, also no Recaros for the TDCI (136 HP) were available. Is there a service hotline of Ford that you can call? Ciao Pedro P.S. Somehow there is no good car in the price situation up to 22 teuros without serious defects…. (car 1.) seats good, suspension bad car 2.) seats bad, suspension good….) The seats of the Mondeo were also worse than from the competition (Opel Vectra, Passat,…)

  • Ford Connect 122 hp vs Ford Kuga 183 hp

    In February, ladies and gentlemen, I have a change of vehicle and I am in a rather difficult decision. I am currently driving a Ford Kuga FHEV in the ST Line X with automatic for 589€. It goes back in February and I can now choose between four options. 1) Seat Ateca petrol for ~549€ p.m. 2) Mercedes GLA petrol for 629€ p.m. 3) Ford Kuga FHEV (Facelift), ST Line X for 639€ 4) Ford Turneo Connect Titanium Diesel with 122PS for 429€ De The Ateca is too boring. The Kuga Facelift finally has the headlights I had missed at the front lift. But the price is heavy. I can afford it, but for 639€ I don’t see the thing anyway. The Connect for 429€ is very pleasant to me. Visually, it can’t keep up with the Kuga. But it’s practical for that. The sliding doors and also the big trunk. Today I was testing with the Connect. However, it was too small and too expensive for me. The infotainment with the getouche made me crazy, but luckily there is the voice control. A point that bothers me very much is the acceleration. That was fade today. It felt like a minute before I finally reached the 100. At 130 the soundscape was similar to an airplane. The Connect offered is now 7hp stronger and a diesel. Has someone driven both versions, and could memorize with the diesel Are power differences detect? There are quite situations in road traffic, because some momentum helps. I am concerned about the fast acceleration when threading. Otherwise I rarely drive more than 150.

  • 1.8 16V power

    Hi, who of you has the 1.8l 16v engine in focus? I have a bj 99 and unfortunately can’t look forward to the performance! would have expected more! sometimes I have problems to overtake a little fiesta even though I’ve kicked through the gas full and also switch back a walk! Or such a Seat Toledo pulls out behind me, I just overtook it with 190, and pulls it past me like a arrow a few hundred meters further! to stay at our focus tournament is also damn hard, ifwoh l the 15ps has less and weighs more! is that normal? how can I get more power out of it without spending hundreds of euros?

  • I’m driving a bell tower.

    Hello, have now for 8 months as a company car the Transit Custom, the model before it was super (nen Diesel ??). The new gets me extremely on the sack constantly Bimmelt what often pre-collisions warning (which annoys extreme and puts the pulse briefly on 200) Bimmel Bimmel the engine is on, Bimmel Bimmel, the parking brake is not attracted although I want to drive, for a short 20m without belt over the yard it is just Bimmelt still. Has these bimmel nn extra speaker or cable which you simply durc How do I get this tickle on silently? I think one of you will hopefully have already taken it and found a way. Or you have nerves of steel or you are all whirling????

  • Rust crossbars, drive shafts, swivel bearing, FF II

    Hello, at the first year inspection I had the opportunity to see the FF II trend, EZ 06/05 , only 5,000 km (second car ) from below. I am shocked, the parts look like structural steel which is already very long in the open air : Completely rusted crossbars, as well as the drive shafts, as well as the swivel bearings… and still some screws. I have not even seen this in older vehicles. Our previous second car ( Mazda MX3 ) looked not nearly like this even after 8 years. drive otherwise for several years, and have already passed through some vehicles. I will probably go to a car expert and pass the pictures on to the ́car picture ́. Ford Cologne ́s ́test ́ still.. Who has similar problems / experiences ? Greeting xylo
