In Topic: How Many Miles Do You Get From A Full Tank Of Fuel.

12 June 2013 - 07:46 PM

I tend to get 550 a tank according to the computer give or take a few.

 

It's a a 1.6 eco fiesta, typical drive to work is 20 miles each way on A roads/ dual carriage way and a A road that snarls up at the least provocation  (there a school on it so all the range rover owning mums and dads get in the flipping way and cause said snarl ups because they have to cross the traffic flow NOW!!!!! rather than wait for a gap)


In Topic: What Have You Done With Your Car Today?

Someone bashed my passenger mirror a few months ago, I got back to the car and the bits were on the floor and the mirror dangling on the heater wires, went back together but the black parts damaged and I need to replace it at some point.

 

Today I knocked it again against another wing mirror in traffic and the mirror glass fell out and dangled *again*.  It really needs replacing..

 

Be checking Scrappies and Ebay over the weekend I suspect..

Ahhhh thought this may have been the case, strange they don't allow you to change it another way, suppose it keeps people using the genuine ford stereo and not aftermarket! Thanks for the help

 

Not sure it's to keep people with the OEM unit, the menu uses the same head unit display, so Ford probably assumed people would have the head unit so put the controls in it to save putting in more switches and an additional display.

 

You'll also be unable to change the indicator flasher mode (the slight touch of the indicators being 1 blink or three), or the display dimming with the headlight (not relevelevent as you changed the display anyway) and If you have them fitted Ambient Lighting modes, Powerfold mirrors being Linked to Lock mode to my knowledge, bluetooth pairing for in car telephone link (although that too may be done by the new radio)   There may be other options on a Titanium I'm not aware of,

It's done by the radio, along with a few other settings.  Not sure you can change them without the original stereo.
