rossZs180 Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 Hi all , first post on here. Having issues with my new car 2013 Focus zetec s 180hp (89k miles on clock) Picked it up around a month ago and within 2 weeks of ownership hit a major issue. After some spirited B road driving, I pulled upto a roundabout, while pulling off the car started shuddering under acceleration with white smoke coming from exhaust. Managed to crawl the half a mile home and pulled upto the my driveway. oil now has filled with petrol and car won’t start. My mate plugged his obd scanner in and came up with 3 faults - P2237/ P0089 / P0087 Seriously hoping I haven’t damaged a piston or ring. Car had a major service within 5 days of owning and timing belt / water pump was changed less than 20 miles before it gave up the ghost. Could anyone shed some light? I am preparing myself for the worst. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomsFocus Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 Sounds like a stuck-open injector initially. Though driving home on it may have caused further damage. When you say it won't start - does it turn over? How high is the oil level now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
