  • Came to Capri?

    Hi guys! After having been reading for a few days now, I found out that the name “Capri” always appears. 🙂 I find this very laudable after I own one too. Unfortunately, only one of them had three pieces in my best times: 2,0l S V6 Built 12/81, 2,0l S Vierzyl. Built 01/81 and 1600GT Built 10/69. I had the six-cylinder as the first car and now only the four-cylinder. Who has what kind of Capri here? And how did you get to Capri? I would rather not ask, I always experience this when I run my gassi! For financial reasons he is now unfortunately one year away, but I am already looking forward to next year! *süchtl* Kathi (who couldn’t imagine a life without Capri at all)

  • 2.Gang problems

    I know that there are a lot of such topics in the forum but I didn’t find a proper explanation. So here again in forum. I have a Ford Mondeo year 05.99, 3 months ago the clutch was changed with me and now that it becomes colder, the clutch or the 2nd gear does not go in. I was already at the workshop and they told me that it was on the oil, but they can do nothing because it is already the best oil. My wife could for example early not at all I don’t know how long it’s going to be. Does anyone know about it? Thanks claps

  • Cold light cathode as underfloor lighting?

    Hello, I have to let my car light up a bit from below (of course only for show purposes 😉 )! But I don’t want to screw huge (sometimes expensive) neon tubes under my car! Would the much cheaper cold light cathodes (many use them as interior lighting or as lighting for their PC) perhaps be recommended! Waterproof I get them already, but is the light yield so good that they can keep up with neon tubes?? Has anyone ever had experience with it and can give me some advice??? Thank you

  • alternator permanently consumes electricity

    I had problems with my battery the other day. When I got into my car one morning, the battery was suddenly here… a lot back and forth and new battery, after a short time this was empty too. We then measured the current, which flows when switched off, and that amounted to 2A which can be normal. after the expansion of the alternator, which the consumption to zero. Now the funny thing. How did the Lima hit again, the minuspole from the charger dra I thought that the LIMA was definitely broken. Then I got two replacement LIMAs, at the first one, which is identical, so exactly identical… that happened with the 2 amps. At the 3 of Bosch the 2 amps didn’t come. Now I’m quite confused, and I really need help. That can’t be true, that both LIMAs did the same for the same two amps. At the 3 of Bosch, the 2 amps didn’t come. Now I’m quite confused, and I really need help. I don’t know if this is normal with the 2 A or if the Bosch is broken. We have you out of a spare part warehouse from the friend. Ask for urgent help… By the way, car is FORD FIESTA 1.8l DIESEL year of construction 92 with electric window lifter, central transmission if this is important… battery is 72Ah and a 55er LIMA

  • Elek. Window Lifter Go (not)

    I have a fiesta bj. 1992 44kw with electric window lifters in front. some time ago the window lifter on the driver’s side failed to me, shortly afterwards the one on the passenger side. short time later the one on the passenger side went again and a day went even on the driver’s side. meanwhile it is the case that the one on the driver’s side does not go and he goes on the passenger side shcon for about a month. I was already working with it. switch and cable etc. we’ve looked at everything and we’ve got it all. it’s also coming to power with the fensteheber engine. so actually only the engine can be broken. but why the devil, does it go sometimes and sometimes not? and where do I get such a motor. I’ve already looked everywhere in the internet, at ebay and so on and at the car parts dealers and the scrapping places near me, but I haven’t found anything. can I also do a normal curling stick in the doors and throw the window lifter out? w är supernett, if you could help me in any form. Thank you!!

  • Noise of the pressure bearing

    I still have a question about the Focus! Is that normal, that you can hear the printout bearing and the transmission shaft running in idle mode with the not kicked clutch pedal? Or does everything still have to sit down? The Focus only ran 1400Km! Greeting:Laurel__

Should chain and spanner be checked? What else can it be? Am I the only one who hears this??? Used goods dealer (no Ford dealer) is almost gone! Who can help? Guarantee available!

  • Price’s okay, huh?

Hd., original 132 tkm, TÜV/AU 3/04, uffr., violet-met., 2x Airbag, RC, RDS, GSD, ZV, Servo, ABS, WFS, 8-f. ber., SH, 1.650,- I called the guy and he meant with new Tüv/Au I could have him for 1,500€ You think the offer is realistic, ode r do you think there is something lazy?

  • Ratters during decoupling TDCI

    Hello together, I am since the middle of November ́03 proud owner of a Focus FUTURA 1.8l TDCI 115 hp. EZ.10.02. 4-door of course!!! I have a few minor problems however. And that is: 1. Rattert the engine when I step the clutch. The Ford workshop told me this is normal, that is a DIESEL. The rattert so when you step the clutch. 2. It is a way to knock more to hear noise when I am at 120 km/h on the highway. 3. My windscreen wash nozzles adjust to the driving. I set them yesterday evening, this morning the windows were washed, everything was fine. On the highway the windows were washed again, then the beam almost went over the car again. Ford means that can’t be. If the nozzles at the stand (show) do not adjust what they did not, then that can’t happen after a ride. The master did not say it directly, but so it came over, that he did me for crazy driving. 4) Is a problem where I may already know the cause. Since the question is whether and how I can fix it myself. And indeed my blower runs restless. Ford believes there is a leaf leaf in the pollen filter. But if so, then this would not be a guarantee, so Ford advised me to wait until the next inspection, then the pollen filter will be renewed anyway. But that will take another year. Don’t I come to it myself? were so my problems with my new car. Can one of you help me? Ford feels obviously overwhelmed with these issues except for the ventilation. Please help me, I would like to enjoy my car again!!!
