Have you ever driven a Sierra 2.0 DOHC with 120 hp? What were your driving impressions? Good driving performance for such an old car? Acceleration/End speed? Nowadays 120 hp are not so much, actually already normal. But as I said for such an old car already a lot, right? And my second question: Where is the air filter in the Sierra? Wanted to look at it! We need a new……

Has anyone ever driven a Focus RS or even got one? What are the impressions? Our Ford dealer now has an approved one and I want to try to get a test drive!

The first time at 13tkm and the second time at 37tkm. Remember:http://www.motor-talk.de/showthread.php?… Well, at 49tkm, the typical symptoms occur again! More precisely, today’s first time. But it was exactly like the two times before. Suddenly, the pre-gloss lamp starts to flash and the engine is drastically losing power. After the re-activating it went again w he before. I give him a maximum of 2tkm.. then I guess another new injection system will be due. The last reperature allegedly carried out 4 engineers from Ford from Cologne. I was assured, once again, that everything is in order and the problem with the injection systems was solved. Push cake! Now I wanted to ask the specialists among you how the chances of a change of the car stand? It can not be normal, after all, that a motor within 50tkm 3x If a complete change is impossible… what are the chances that I will get a completely new engine? Perhaps with the new 6 gear transmission? Would you like some information before I go to the expert and lawyer. Another question: Will the warranty period be extended after such repetitions somehow? Or is there a safe culling regulation (for the time after the warranty)? Because if not, I have nothing else left but the car before the warranty expires. for sale. Greetings Markus

this week a Focus 1.8TDCI with 115hp tested and must say that the car has not promised me too much. since I want to buy my first own car next spring the focus still comes into the tighter choice because I think it is a mature car and don’t want to go into experiments with the first car. does any of you have experiences with the car? would just like a few opinions about the car thank you in advance

Hello! With my RS2000 year 96 a slight “quick” in the engine run is appearing recently. So I suspect that it is 99 per cent a defective hydro plug, the noise is also not always there. My question is now whether a motor flush would be long or if it would be better to replace the or all rams, because it is certainly not so easy to find the right or the defective one. The engine has a mileage of 135TKM. Should one be in the same way Maybe renew other components, such as valve shaft seals, chain tensioners or similar? Has anyone had similar problems? Does anyone know how expensive the bumps are?

Hello dear colleagues, you have helped me so much with the temperature problems and gave me advice on “with 193,000 KM on vacation”. Thank you very much for this. Now I still have a problem that simply makes me crazy and with which I now finally do not know any more. My Fiesta, which is already sufficiently well known to you, is the favorite car in the world in city traffic. Also if I drive normally over the highway or over the country road. But if I only 5 minutes It is only when the car is idle. It is only a short flickering and in the course of time it gets worse. (Test: Autobahnfahrt und Kupplung entstehen). In the city traffic it calms down relatively quickly: lamp is off. Very important: when I give a little gas, the lamp also goes off. In short: Nic drives 120, idle speed: lamp on. Over idle speed: lamp off. At first I thought that it was on the vacuum pump for the Brem oil change was made in September: original oil from Ford. Enough would have to be in it: in the middle of the top and longest flattening on the track bar. My friendly Ford dealer gave me to understand that it could be the oil pump – which, however, I do not like. Hiesse it to turn my small thick trekker off soon next to other cars. Do you have no idea? Can it be the oil pressure switch? What u And when does it actually show? I still have a can of oil sludge flushing here. However, there are little anzecihens for oil sludge: vebtile drive and oil lids look good. I am grateful for every tip. At the moment I am a little irritated: If I still meant that there is enough oil on it, it seems to be too much oil. Anyway, according to the operating manual. Please don’t consider me naive. But I always give the Fiesta to the workshop for TÜV etc. and actually you should d They can’t just be so stupid and tip too much of the expensive oil into me. (Okay, I paid for it too). So what do you think?

Hello guys! I have a Mondeo tournament (Automatics, Zul. 05.96). Slowly I am in despair. The car somehow pulls to the right. If you let go on the free track and straight road the steering thread, he stops the track about 100-200m and then slowly fades out of the track. In the city it doesn’t matter, on the highway it annoys and goes into the arms. I had the front tires replaced a year ago, they had run off at the sides (inside as well as outside). The following are: 185/65R14 86T I mentioned the problem in 3 different workshops. I thought I was just imagining it, but also a fitter confirmed the problem: “It’s quite strange”. Nobody knew at the first moment more than to set the track and then see… I probably had it done 3 times, so it doesn’t help. A fitter had an Audi, on which he simply changed the apparently not warped crossbars with the same problem, the problem was fixed. I can remember, maybe with the right side to have rolled a bit more on a higher edge stone, but no longer knows when it was and if the problem already occurred afterwards. Does anyone know this problem. Should I accept the cost of installing a new crossbar, especially speculative? According to TÜV both crossbar bushings have to be renewed at the front. Should I do this? Sorry, don’t know about it. The crossbar will probably cost about 100 EUR.

Hello! Maybe you can help me. I have a problem: My Ford Fiesta (Bj 1995) has a quite high fuel consumption (about 10-11 liters). When I open the gas station the fuel cap is to hear a hissical noise and you feel like a whole load of air is coming to you. Does someone know what this is about and does someone have tips on how to reduce the fuel consumption (except the driving style something to change ;-)) ?? MfG Beltzebub

When I opened my mail today, there was a flash image of me! I mean, I know that I have a lead foot and that eats often so that I am flashed! But when I read the speed I almost fell off the chair. Supposedly I said on the A1 in a 120 km/h zone and wrote 258 km/h?! How is this possible? Now I have to say sazu that I was on the road with the ST170. But also with the ST170. This is at least 216 km/h close. So how can it happen that they can prove me 258 km/h. That car is only optical and not tuned at the engine! I missed the sign, but had 180-200 km/h at most on the tacho. Please help me further and tell me what to do now! Can I confirm with an expert report that my ST170 can not be faster??? Or what should I do? Thanks already in advance!!! Ford-Focus-RS

Hoi, Hab the following problem with my Fiesta (94): In the last few days the engine often goes off when I uncouple and roll on a red traffic light in empty run… mostly when the engine is still cold but sometimes even when the engine is running warm. Mostly I get it directly again but it has ever happened to me three times that nothing happened at all. toboggan inclusive! the adac once meant that the engine would have been endlessly drunk… what do you think that can be? that the engine pulls too much gasoline? or what expensive? salutes guido
