Hi guys! I have a problem. I have a 2013 Ford Focus (Europe) without front foglights (only rear). I found all needed wiring near the front bumper, so everything I need to do is replace the headlight block (stock block is on photo 1)and add wiring for bumper. I have ordered block with front and rear foglights (photo 2), but this block is from 2014 Ford Transit and has another type of connector with more pins. I don't really want to return this block, so is there some way to connect this block to my car? I have wires to repin this block. I will add photo of new connector in the comments. Thank you in advance
I’m not sure how else to describe the issue but I’m getting a rattling sound near drive foot well when accelerating.
I’ve replaced Upper/lower Trans and motor mount thinking it would solve the issue but it does not seem to have solved it.
I have a 2016 focus SE, 5 speed manual. I would like to get some performance upgrades done to it, but I’ve always been a truck guy. This is my first car that I’ve owned , since as I said I’ve always had trucks. I wanna get a turbo on it, or maybe even a better cold air intake, but I’m not sure what’s good and what’s not. Any ideas??? Car only has 100k miles on it…
Anyone have an extra radio? Mine hasn't worked in 2 years, I have looked at the Amazon tablet ones. But not worth it imo. I need the car to give me a couple more years, and it's my daily driver. Wouldn't be upset if I could listen to my audio books on the car speakers instead of headphones.
Hey guys, my my mates owns a 2008 ford focus car has been loosing coolant quickly with smoke coming out of the air vents I’ve traced the coolant leak down to the heater core, is it usual for the heater core to leak coolant it’s all pooled up at the bottom is the fix for this just to install a brand new heater core or is the issue forming somewhere else? Thanks guys any thing will help.
So my 2014 se auto dct (dory) might be going out if it's in drive it won't select the right gear so I've been using select shift which I have to keep restarting the car to get it to go into and then it drives perfectly fine but the s will be greyd out and so will drive on the dash could this be the infamous tcm problem or could there be another issue Also wanna mention dory has 154000 miles on her
Good evening everyone, I am new to the group and I have a question.
Is it possible to completely remove the snowflake light? If yes, how?
Thank you all!
Anyone know who makes a decent black or black/white or black/chrome badge replacement kit for the 2010 focus? Looking to buy one but so far all I’ve found is ones from australia, would those be the same size/firmest as north american models?
Just changed the spark plugs and ignition coils on my Ford Focus Zetec 2010. Had a decent amount of oil on the spark plugs also it seems the previous owner may have over filled the oil. Would this be the cause of the oil on spark plugs or am I looking at a gasket failure or something worse possibly?
2011 Focus SEL equipped with the 301A Rapid Spec and our 02 Explorer Sport.
I have an 04 focus with a 2.3. It has a broken plastic lever connecting the vacuum actuator to the intake flaps. The only manufacturers I can find for this are in Poland and Russia and won't ship to the US and it's driving me nuts. The part # is L323-13-100c. I've already tried rigging it twice and it snapped apart. Does anyone have any advice or parts sources or even a spare part available? I've had this car for months and I can't get it to pass smog in California without this cheap little piece.
Car is an '06 ZX5 with 252k miles, well maintained. Ran through a deep puddle at speed months ago, afterwards the CEL came on. There were 2 codes, the P0171 'lean condition' code, as well as the thermostat going bad. I replaced the t-stat, coolant and some hoses, as well as the PCV hose, intake gaskets, and checked around for hose leaks. Next up is looking at the O2 sensors. Have the following data (see pix below), but am unsure if one of them is the culprit. The S1B1 sensor does drop below the 0.1V lower limit a few times a minute, but unsure if this will give the results I've been seeing. Do either of the O2 sensors look at-fault, or should I be looking at the air cleaner box, or the fuel filter? The pressure at the fuel rail stays at 41-42 PSI, so thinking the fuel pressure is fine.... Pix 1-5 are at idle, 6 is with throttle, 7 is off-throttle and 8 is idle after off-throttle. Any help is appreciated!
Just got some work done on my car my mechanic told me don’t change the transmission fluid unless you spot a leak is that true? It’s not leaking or anything what he was saying is that changing the transmission fluid would likely mess it up is that true?
Got my kid a 2015 ford focus. Took it to the local car stereo shop. They quoted me 1k as cheapest option they had. Basically 500 parts and 500 labor Not really wanting to sink 1k into a car I paid 4k for with 100k miles. Does anybody know of good options for accomplishing task.
Hello, I’m looking for Focus 2020 with 2.0 Diesel engine. Car is around 130000km. Do you have any experience with it and is it reliable?
Hi all, I am in possession of a focus mk3 1.6 and wanted to get some horsepower out. It currently has bmc biconical filter, rs filter case, loder terminal and I think the old owner remapped the ecu. Here I ask, which intercooler can I mount? Any other modifications to do without opening the engine? Coils, spark plugs, headers, downpipe or anything else? Where can I find the parts? I am located in italy, so possibly stuff that can be found in europe. Thanks to all in advance

Is focus 2013
For manual transmission.
Just wondering how a used focus with over 100k miles still performs. The seller says the cambelt will be replaced for me, but I don’t think the clutch will be replaced.
I was either going to a Ford focus or a Kia ceed.
Hey Guys,
I recently got a ford focus 2011 Mk3 and it's a lovely car to drive. I am having issues with it's keyfob though. I have disabled keyless unlocking at the moment, but when I use the buttons on the fob to unlock my car, it pulls down all the windows of the doors as well. No matter the button I press on the fob- lock, unlock, boot, they all will unlock all 4 doors and all the windows will go down.
As a result I cant lock my car without the key either. With keyless unlock (Proximity unlock) as well, when enabled, it will unlock all doors and all the windows will go down with it.
Any ideas on what I can do to fix this? It's driving me nuts!
I'm living China and I'm about to get my first car. 2.0 manual MK3 and 1.5T automatic MK3.5 both are 180HP, They price also similar like 4k dollars, What do you guys think? I like manual but I also like MK3.5 appearance😂
Changed my spark plugs and found a good amount of oil in the first plug. A tiny tiny amount in the second and fourth. What could that be? I did clean it dry and really well before putting new ones in. Started the car and whitish smoke came out the back, let it sit for about 2 min (Tiny amount of smoke puffing out nothing thick) & I drove it one mile and no smoke when I came back. What y’all think? I know it’s something I’m going to have to address when I take the car in.
The thing has been serviced all the way to 367k km!
