Hi. What does everyone with a Zetec C-Max clean the water stains off their seats with? I have tried several products, But????? Cheers. T.

Hi. You should try the 2.0 diesel????????? T.

Hi. 05 plate 2.0 Tdci Zetec,coming up 2years old now, over that time 2 EGR Valves, and many other probs.(all eventually sorted) but one consistency seems to be the economy? 41-44 on 6 mile return journey to work, 60-64 on longer trips, I never exceed the speed limits, and use the highest gear the car is comfortable with. BRILLIANT! T.

Hi. I have just completed a journey of 624 miles, mostly m/way, major A roads, a small amount of B roads on one (1) tank of diesel?????? Cruise Control at 62 Mph, 61.8 Mpg, and that is full tank----full tank. It took 45.89 litres to fill. Absolutely brilliant, If it keeps this up, and does'nt breakdown again maybe I will have another??????? Cheers. T.

Hi. Exactly what I did, and have had no probs. only took 1/2 hr? T.

Hi. Had the rear calipers, and pads replaced AGAIN, I have left it so long, to make sure the noise did not return, so far so good, 5 weeks, and if anything the brakes are better now than they have ever been. It is as if the dealers can't be bothered to do it right first time???? T.

Well you, of all people, should know whether it's worth it then, surely??!!! Hi. Not really, This being our first Ford, and after the problems we have had, is it going to work?????? and if it is not going to work, then as I asked originally is it worth the money???? I have had absolutely no electrical faults with my Renault, where as the Ford, Phew. T.

Hi. I have used it on my Laguna with no problems, but it was standard fit, I was just wondering is it worth the money to have fitted to my wifes new C-Max? T.

Hi. Could anyone tell me, Is the keyless entry option for the C-Max worth the money? Many Thanks. T.

Hi. Has anyone experienced a loud, and annoying rattle from the rear brakes on their C-Max. I know it is from the rear brakes, because if I pull the h/brake up one click the rattle stops. It is a 2.0 Tdci Zetec 18 months old with 8k on the clock,it has had the rear pads replaced several months ago to stop the squeeling in reverse, but a few weeks ago the rattle started, the dealer tells me modified pads are required, is this so? I have seen nothing on here to suggest modified pads, or have I missed something? Cheers. T.

Hi. The original post appears to have been hi-jacked a little? T.

Hi. Does anyone know if Ford have sorted the majority of issues reported on here on 2006 C-Max? Also with the facelift has the Ghia spec. changed much, if at all? Cheers. T.

Hi. I have an 05 reg. 2.0 Tdci, 5500 miles, and until recently (the start of the cold weather) I have had no problems, now in less than 2 months, New EGR valve, New heated windscreen, new rear brake pads, new front door seals. Now the reason for the post is, while the fixes, and repairs have been a pain to arrange, and sort out, my dealer Bramhall Ford of Wrexham, and in particular the after sales manager Steve Gittins have been absolutely brilliant, nothing was too much trouble, and they bent over backwards to try and make things as painless as possible, loan car, coffee, keeping me up to d

Hi. So did I, but too many things going wrong, Faulty heated screen, noisy rear brakes when reversing Which the dealer says is under investigation by Ford (not what is reported on here?), EGR valve stuck, all within 8 months, I am not a happy Bunnie. This is my first ever Ford, not sure I will have another. T.

Hi Nick. Thanks for the reply, but no it does not have the EPB, As for 05 build I don't know, it is an 05 reg? and the noise is more a groan than a squeel? I am taking it in on Friday, I will see what they say, and keep you posted. Cheers. T.

Hi. I have a 05 reg. Zetec 2.0 Tdci with the above mentioned fault, I went to my local dealer so they could have a look at a faulty heated front screen. (would you believe it with the current weather) while I was there I mentioned to them the fact that the brakes made a noise when rev. and told them of the fix and the TSB No, they said the problem was under investigation by Ford!!!! And the TSB was not listed on there list of fixes. I suggested they check again because of what I had read on here, but they swore blind I was Wrong, What now? this is my first ever Ford, the 5th time in 8 months

Hi. My December 04 build 2.0 Tdci Zetec with 3700 miles on the clock has just returned 63 mpg on a journey of 265 miles at between 60-70 mph. On the return trip at between 70-80 mph 59.7 mpg all with a/c on. And I regularly get 44+ around town. BRILLIANT or what? T I posted the above in an earlier topic, and is no bull, I am over the moon with the economy, it is far better than my last car a 2002 Picasso 2.0 hdi. supposedly the same engine??? T.

Hi. How does one remove the C-Max rear bumper? Is it a major job? Advice would be appreciated. Many Thanks in advance. T.

Hi. Where did you find the instructions to change temp. readings from F. to C. as this is something I would like to do. Cheers. T.

8) Hi. Can anyone tell me what is classed as good economy on short town runs, I have a light right foot, but only get 36 ish mpg? My last car was a 2.0 Hdi Picasso, and I regularly got 44 mpg for the same type of knocking about. Any ideas???? Regards. T. 8) 8) 8)
