In Topic: Engine Treatment At Ford

I had this done on my diesel and an engine flush, did not notice or feel anything so I won't do it again. Firm believer in a good quality oil and decent fuel.

I agree with Shrek81, turbo lag! Just make sure you're above 1800 rpm if you want to put your foot down after slowing down.

 

Under normal driving you should only notice the smoke at night when another car has its lights behind you, your rear view mirror has tinted and you have stepped on the peddle.

 

If you're under the boost level and you've stepped on the peddle it will smoke until the the turbo catches up with your right foot and in most cases the turbulence behind the car would have cleared the smoke during daylight.

 

It's one give away when a diesel in front of you has stepped on the peddle and there is no boost!

In Topic: 2007 Focus Mk2 Lh Door Mirror Indicator Lens

25 April 2013 - 09:07 PM

4450781 is for the C-Max, 1425141 is for the Focus. Bit the bullet and paid £47 quid for one, pretty much the going price for them. The whole unit brand new is around £160. Will be very careful with the mirrors now!
