TomsFocus Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 Is it an ST or an ST-Line? I didn't think the Mk7 ST had stop start. Unless you mean it's push button start? You'll have to let us know what the garage have tried already. battery check? Diagnostic check? Is the immobiliser light flashing? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes push button start and the garage have said they have checked battery and all codes have been rectified so no lights on 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomsFocus Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 Ok, thanks for clarifying. Indy garage scanners don't pick up Ford specific faults. So really the best option now is to get Forscan on it if that's something you feel comfortable doing. If not, taking it to a Ford dealer would probably be the only other option. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what that says about Ford reliability. If you're fairly savvy with a phone/ or laptop, Forscan is pretty straightforward and only costs around £20 for the adapter.

This is a long standing tactic by main dealers of all makes who just don’t want to do the work. Particularly if you are not a regular customer. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
