I have a 2003 ford focus since the day I got it the brakes squeal.Ford
updated my brakes and still they make noise after 16000 kilometers they tell
me I need the "4 wheel service " which is a maintenance  job
Ford tells me they will not pay for it because it is not considered part ...

I recently had my Focus MOT 'd and the mechanic at the garage pointed
out that my air conditioning was running ALL the time!! He turned off
the Fan and after a few seconds the air conditioning turned off also!!
He said this was a fault and that I should get it looked at ASAP!!

Howdy listers,
A ways back there was some talk on the list regarding a factory kit to
modify the rear wheel setup on Focus' that have the severe tire wear
problem.  Does anyone know of the Ford Canada part number for these kits?

I have a UK Focus 1.8 LX T Reg, Jan 1999 (Zetec engine).
A few days ago I started hearing some bangs when leaving junctions
etc. Eventually on Friday morning I heard the bang again and then
couldn't change gear anymore. Stopped the engine, it started again

How common is this: Pump fails at 75k miles,  shop says it has to pull
tank (labor $278.58) to replace fuel pump module ($382.72)?  Anybody
else seen anything like this?

What's happened to www.ffoc.co.uk?

I need to change the clean air (pollen) filter on my 1999 focus.  Does
anyone know where it is located.
Thanks
Sean

2002 Focus SE
Engine light on.  Determined that gas cap was loose, as per owners
manual, for an undetermined amount of time.  There was some rain and
high humidity.  Had about 1/4 tank of gas left from a single filling.

Quick questions to my fellow Foci owners who have experienced problems
with their ignition.
1. Is the problem the tumblers?
2. How long of a fix?

I have just traded my peugeot 306 gti-6 in for a Focus TDCi zetec diesel, is
there anything I need to know about the focus, i.e any good, bad points
about it, anything you would suggest i upgrade, or change.
Cheers
