merlin Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 Very nice..........but was it locked when you took photos??...........cos door mirrors should have been folded back if it was all locked up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmbrown91 Posted June 19, 2011 Author Share Posted June 19, 2011 Looks great! I love those new Titanium alloys Thanks mate, yeah I much prefer them ones to the older ones :) Looks really good with blue! Thanks Tato titanium with the street pack? looking very nice indeedy :) Nah couldnt go for the street pack as its the Diesel, the spec of the car is in my sig :) Thats a good looking motor - in the best colour as well! ;) Couldn't agree more ;) Very nice..........but was it locked when you took photos??...........cos door mirrors should have been folded back if it was all locked up. The salesman unlocked it so I could have a look round then started taking some photos hence the reason why the wing mirrors aren't folded - He even got the Dealer camera out and started snapping away, apparently it attracted alot of attention from the staff when it turned up haha B) love the alloys, make the car look so smart! Thanks Nicola, can't wait to get my hands on it now, didn't want to leave without it :( the next 48 hours are going to go really really slow :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmbrown91 Posted June 22, 2011 Author Share Posted June 22, 2011 Finally picked the Fiesta up today after lots of delays and mishaps..she was definitely worth the wait though! Such as nice car! Will upload some pictures when I get the chance and have a decent camera to hand :) Quick question (I'm sure there will be more), Does anyone who has a 1.6 TDCi find that when they change up a gear it feels like the car has no power then all of a sudden the turbo kicks in? Is it meant to do that? Just to put my mind at rest.. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it meant to do that? Just to put my mind at rest.. Yes mine's been like that ever since I had the software update :( Not as good to drive but more fuel efficient.

merlin Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 They do seem to hesitate when in 2nd until turbo jumps in. It will loosen up when you get thro 3000 barrier and your mpg, depending on how you drive should steadily increase. Mine started at 57mpg. Now upto 60.5 average with recent 62's. I only use BP ultimate tho,did try Shell v-power but developed a stutter as tho about to stall that appeared after about 20 min driving. Lasted a few seconds then vanished, nasty feeling when overtaking at 60. Dropped Shell and problem vanished. Only other problem was a knocking at the rear, boot lock! My first diesel and so far very pleased. Enjoy yours Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyedge Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 Quick question (I'm sure there will be more), Does anyone who has a 1.6 TDCi find that when they change up a gear it feels like the car has no power then all of a sudden the turbo kicks in? Is it meant to do that? Just to put my mind at rest.. Thanks That's normal for a Turbo Diesel I'm afraid. Try to get the revs to 2500 (or even higher ;) ) before changing gear & make your gear changes as quick as possible to keep the revs high & reduce the turbo lag. This will of course use more fuel. As merlin also mentioned there can be quite a lag in 2nd before the turbo kicks in. This usually happens when slowing down to a speed not quite slow enough for first gear but with low revs. I find a little clutch control can build the revs back up. It's really just a matter of getting used to driving it as it can be quite different to driving a petrol powered car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
