Hello Can Anyone Help Me?

25 May 2013 - 08:26 PM

Hello can anyone help me?

When i start my 2009/2010 1.8l Duratec petrol Ford Focus i get a ticking/metallic squeak sound
coming from the crank pully I have narrowed it
down to this part as when i turn the right front wheel on full lock
outward and listen to the engine from there the ticking/metallic squeak comes from that
particular part.

 

ive replaced the oil as thought i might be to think for instant pick up, changed that to Castrol magnatec, but the noise is still there

once the car is up to temperature the noise stops.

 

its really annoying as it sounds like im driving a right nail. ha

Thanks for looking at my post



Cheers


2011 Ford Focus 1.6 Petrol Power Loss

12 February 2013 - 03:11 PM

I have a 2011 Ford Focus Titanium 1.6 Petrol. Every now and again i will be driving along and suddenly have loss of power. I was travelling along the A1 and had to drop it to 2nd Gear to get any power to overtake. This has happened couple of times. Another time this happened i was going up a hill which my focus usually goes up very well, had to drop it right to 1st gear and it still struggled.
    
I have taken it to my local Dealer, and because no lights come on the dash and their computer doesn’t say anything or show any codes, they say there is nothing wrong with it, and they said that when it happens being it straight to us, what happens when we are some distance away?
Anyone have any Ideas?

Cheers

Ford Focus Audio Warranty And Problem!!

05 September 2012 - 07:49 PM

Does anyone know how long the used ford warranty covers audio for.

My radio on my 59 plate focus has started doing something strange.

When i turn the radio on the display appears for a few second then the radio station and P number dissapears but the time stays and the radio still plays music. This happens on every channel. When i press the station number again the display reappears and doesnt disappear again untill i turn the radio off and back on again..

Can any one tell me how long the radio is covered for and if they know what could be the issue thats making my radio do this

cheers

Power Steering

02 September 2012 - 04:07 PM

Now I don’t want to sound stupid but I have a 2009/2010 focus 1.8 (125) petrol and ive noticed there isn’t a power steering fluid reservoir??

Am I being stupid and can’t see it for looking?
