Hi, my mk3 focus titanium x is having intermittent issues. Firstly, it sometimes won't start with no dashboard lights as though it has no power. After 10 mins it starts first push of the button. Secondly, it sometimes displays ' hill start assist' and 'active city stop' not available. are these issues related and what's the fix?

    Good evening dikijohn!

    In my opinion you will have to check out your battery's voltage first.

    If your battery is healthy you must enter a diagnose tool to the OBD slot in order to check further for ecu faults.

    But i think that there is a battery problem by 60% because low voltage make sometimes these faults showing up.

    Check your battery first.
