Its in the features section on ETIS, gives the full spec of the car. Everything else is more or less correct, bar the PP part. 

Im guessing "Less" means it has it because it says less resonators and im sure they won't be supplying a new car without a resonator in the exhaust..

Hi all.

How do you get to the features section in etis?

I am not quite sure, as some of the other stuff, such as parking pack also shows as 'Less' - i didnt get the parking pack. 

Maybe it just hasnt been 100% completed yet. I will take another look tomorrow. 

I don't see any Features anywhere...

Its from a registered account, it won't show up on the regular account. DM me your VIN & i will screen shot you the details when i switch my laptop on tomorrow, its not very user friendly on mobile chrome. 

The less performance pack is most likely from the ST Edition having parts dropped for another or from a variant in another country. On the UK MK4 ST the performance pack was not be listed by name as a feature even with it ordered with one. As was the case with my 2019 MK4. It is also showing less performance pack on my 4.5 I am waiting for. As long as it is on the dealers Vista order portal there should be no reason to be concerned at all.

Nice one Robert, that clarifies the matter Its deffinately on my order form. 

Wanted to let you all know that mine and my friends Focuses finally arrived after 6 and 7 weeks at Dagenham respectively and we picked them up last week.

Quite different to what we were both driving before so is taking some getting used to but we both love them. It’s a painful wait for sure but 100% worth it when you finally get the call, they are a great car!

Unexpected info from my dealer - it's already in Poland, they expect it to be delivered mid next week, so I could pick it up the week after that - around 7/8th of Nov!!! I'm so excited! STx, manual, ordered late Feb 2022.

I finally got some news after 9 months of none at all. I now have a preliminary build date of 11/01, this was confirmed by Ford themselves but still nothing has showed up on Vista 🥲

Was told by my dealer that the car was built on the 28th September, now being told it’s assembled off line with no gate release, anyone know what that means?

Yep, it's 95% built and waiting for missing parts.

Mine was like that form 18 of Sept until 18 of October. Now it is gate released but no further updates.

So I heard on the radio today that both ford focus and fiestas have now been discontinued. Is there any truth to this ? 

 

It's true.

Focus ends 2025.

Making way for electric models and SUVs.

Last chance to get your conventional petrol powered hatchback shaped car.

2030 is electric only in the UK. No ICE, HEV or PHEVs.

Hmmmmm.

Not the forum for it, but I don't think it will actually happen. 

They told us all to buy diesel in the 90s, now look at us.....

Yeah also checked the Fiesta and that will be discontinued next year

Galaxy & S-max dead too. 

Fiesta going next year, focus by the end of 2024 I had been told

Apparently ford have stricken a deal with VW and will be using the ID3 as a base for a new "fiesta" and the ID4 as a base for a new "focus"

I also can't see this whole full electric thing happening, but we can only wait and see!

 

Been a week with the car, anyone else noticing the wireless charging isn't always working? 

Phone is hot to touch which usually means frequent disconnects

Took a further look, for my Galaxy S22+ it needs to be pushed to the very end (furthest into the dash). 

Well you learn something new every day. I never knew that the Focus Mk3 came with wireless charging 😉

Old news, just haven't updated the bio yet

Alexp999 is the man who knows about wireless charging. If you have your phone in a case it can cause issues.

Can the wireless charging be turned off? If you just want to keep the phone there but not charge? 🤔

Yes on the Focus Mk3 and the Mk3.5 🤣

It's a good question, but I don't know the answer. I expect probably not but maybe someone with wireless charging can tell us.
