I would probably use the opportunity to replace the gearbox oil aanyway's probably never been done. Now just need to find the right part lol

No you can't change it.

I've only ever used cruise control at top. I accidently tried to change gear once while cruise was activated and the rev went straight up. I never knew that other cars could change gears with cruise activated.

Sorry to reply to an old post. But when using the training tool is there a best practice? It is done when the new sensors are fitted as I've seen a video of a fella using the tool on loose sensors before fitting Thanks

I'm sure you are not alone. How drivers use CC varies a lot. Some new use it but I use it constantly. My knees are worn so having my foot in a fixed position is uncomfortable. I also use the CC to keep my speed 3% above the speed limit so I don't get any tickets. When driving 86kmh I often downshift to 5th to avoid logging the engine uphill. And we also have a lot of 70, 60 and 50kmh zones in Denmark... My first car with cc also had a dual clutch transmission so I might have developed my habits driving that car.

Hi All, we have just bought a 2009 fiesta for our daughters first car and it seems great - but has roof bars attached. if we take them off, how do we fill the gaps left in the black roof strips??? I think they would have originally come with the complete ford roof bar kit, but of course that was the previous owner....... any help greatly appreciated! :-)

Hi Jeff, welcome to the forum from another Ford fanatic 😁

Liam did you find out if it's a DIY job ?

Going a bit off topic (as usual😀). I've owned many manual cars with cruise and only ever used it while in top. Not once has it occurred to me to change gear with it engaged. Am I alone in this?

Yes I do in mine can you help please, I thought it might be the brakes but they're ok Yes I do all the time not just over speedbumps
