Hi All,
Quick question....my brother has a mk2 '55 reg and has a non flip keyfob and needs his battery changing.
Timpsons have advised him that if he does change the battery Ford need to reprogramme the keyfob back to the car at £££££
I'm sure this is not the case....can anyone confirm this?
Thanks
Jason

Oil Leak - Advise Please
23 April 2013 - 05:06 PM
Hi All,
This is my naivety coming through here.....
I found some oil underneath this pipe the other week...I cleaned it up and re-checked it again today and found more oil and what seems to be fresh.
I've taken the pipe off and tried to check for splits and cannot visually see any but did find oil inside the pipe.
Has anyone else come across this or what could be the problem?
Should there be oil inside this pipe?
Is this a breather pipe or what is it known as?
I have a 2.0TDCI Duratec engine on an '09 reg plate
Many Thanks guys/girls

Hi All,
I placed a bid and won a set of these but things went pear shaped and I ended up buy 2 lots
and the seller will not have them back without me sending them back to China!!
They are good for the Focus 2005 onwards (not sure about the MK3) and here are some pics of 1 of the sets fitted:
So a set of these are up for sale and I just want to cover my basic costs so I'm after £10 incl p&p. happy to use Paypal as long as the money is sent as a gift

Wheel Noise & Uneven Tyre Wear
03 September 2012 - 10:49 PM
Hi All,
I have been having some slight wheel noise coming from the rear/nearside wheel and today I popped some new boots on the back wheels and whilst doing so the mechanic commented that the wear on the rear/nearside wheel was really uneven which after seeing it, it was.
It was suggested that this could have been down to a faulty tyre but also mentioned that maybe the bushes had gone on that side. My question is, has anyone else experienced this? and if it is the bushes where are they and how would I tell if they were split or shot?
Now the reason for asking is that even with the new tyres on I can still hear the noise coming from the rear...it is not major noise but more of a low frequency noise (not sure if I'm explaining it right) however there is no pull or wobble in the wheel whilst driving...I have also jacked it up and spun the wheel to see if I can see any unevenness in the rotation and I cannot and I have tried to rock the wheel and there is not give there either.
Any advise anyone can give would be well received.
Thanks - Jason
