  1. Thanks guys! Will try get some tomorrow and keep you posted. Very grateful for you taking time to respond, very much appreciated!
  2. Thanks :) would little spares stores sell this stuff? Would it be ok to do a motorway run after adding or wait till I'm back doing usual short trips?
  3. ?Leemaxd, Thanks for this advice , what is that BG stuff? Do you just poor it directly into the tank? jbeer said to put some higher grade diesel in, it's driving me potty-especially as they said 'its not faulting'. It faulted all the blinking way home!?...
  4. Hey jbeer, have booked it in with my mechanic friend who will clean the EGR for the price of a pint! Hopefully this will help! Stoooooopid Ford garage. As soon as I drove it home it was still doing it. Unless its my driving style... lol
  5. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! After having the car for 4 days and two Ford tech guys look it over they've found; 'no fault' anywhere. It juddered once whilst it's been there, but that was it. Came home and it's still there slightly!? Muppets. What to do now?!..
  6. The ST diffuser doesn't fit on the titanium bumper, you need to buy a specific ST bumper that the diffuser clips in. You could either buy a complete ST bumper on eBay or buy an after market diffuser that will glue on your existing one!
  7. Hi folks! I have a 2010 titanium x, 2.0 Tdci power shift. This morning a strange thing is happening - a judder has become noticable when first starting off in 1st gear (only noticed this morning), it only seems to happen when coming off idle and in what I guess would be 1st gear, or when slowing down to stop at lights etc. No judder at all when using the clutch in any other gear. Has anyone else had this problem or know what's causing it and what's the solution ? Thanks for any advice!
  8. Zetec RX03, Hi! I have a superb 2010 titanium with the iPod dock and it works a treat, you can either just connect it via a jack and play it 'through' or on eBay I got myself an iPod cable that has the iPod connector at one end to two leads (USB and jack) at the other, thus being able to use the full controls and steering column track advance etc. The lead is around £25 from Ford but I paid £3 for mine, works perfectly, from eBay. I have no idea why a cable would be more than £3... Hmmm. Anyway you can use an mp3's on a USB stick too or any music playing device plugged in via the aux jack
  9. Hi guys, I have a 2010 Titanium and the little 'red lit' screen that shows temp, mileage etc flickers on and off, or appears just red or goes off and then comes back on... Any ideas? Anyone experienced similar? Cars done 17k miles so not too happy with the fault...
  10. right-o then, well have a crack, just need to get me a black strip now! Thanks!
  11. furlong19, was it easy to replace the chrome strip? Was it just a case of plastic clips or was it more involved than that?
  12. furlong19, the black strip on top of your bonnet looks AWESOME! Where did you get this from or did you just spray the existing one yourself?
  13. still think the new shape looks just like a kia c apostrophe eed...
  14. J1ODY_A yep the grille is the honeycomb one, looks much better than the standard slat one! Mudflaps are a great purchase its really personal choice whether you go for rally ones or factory ones, personally I like the look of the factory ones as its a more subtle look - but have seen bright orange ones look quite nice on a black car... CdRsKuLL nice pic, love the rear bumper and twin exhausts - am looking at swapping my standard exhaust for something more cosmetic so will probably go along these lines. Alternatively, may just stick to what I have and get a stainless steel twin end bit and hav
  15. oooooh - what a great gallery! Only been on here a couple of weeks and didn't see it before, very glad I did, some fantastic cars guys - nice one! Here's mine, 2010 Titanium X 2.0TDCi Powershift. LOVE it. new ST front grille front xenons with headlight cleaning jets and LED sidelights rear LED's haven't done much to it except LED bulbs instead of all standard yellow ones, mudflaps front and rear, ST front grille, did have Zetec S front grille but went back to a titanium one. Contemplating rear diffuser, exhaust trim and maybe doing something with the bonnet chrome trim - will wai
  16. thanks for the advice! I'd LOVE a Zetec S rear spoiler but you have to faff with rear mudflaps and the 18's make a mess! lol - yeah maybe go for a couple of front seats, will defo have to save up! Although, do you know of anywhere that you can buy a diffuser that sticks onto the standard rear bumper? Also looking for somewhere that can do somethin with my exhaust to make it look prettier than standard... Do you have any pics of your wonderful motor? Thanks again for chatting :) I love this forum!
  17. no probs! Thanks to tezza he supplied the following information: 'From your local dealer mate as there cheap as chips 1538478 @ £28.18 inc vat Tezza' what a legend! But originally, bomb55 converted it on his silver focus and I thought it looked awesome. Best £28 quid I spent! Though you have to be REALLY careful with the bonnet lock as its very delicate!
  18. here's a pic of the new ST grille I fitted last week, £28 quid from Ford thanks to Tezza's finis code! here's my 5 door variant of yours, with mudflaps :)
  19. mudflaps - the 18's you have are the same as mine, black is hard enough to keep clean so stick front and rear flaps on as these big wheels throw a load of muck up the sides... cheap too, got rears for £8 on ebay and fronts £18 from Ford parts online :) also, I replaced the front upper grille to the ST one (thanks to bomb55!) happy hunting - lurvvvley car!
  20. Hey hulk_slogan welcome to the forum! You'll be well pleased with your new car, sounds like previous owner has put some work in already. It is possible to fit aftermarket stereo but you'll need the usual fascia bits (couple of options below) and maybe wiring adapters, included in the one item online: Just a fascia to fill the space: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/CT24FD26-Ford-Foc ... 2a0b7159ca or fascia, filler, antennae and cable accessories: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/FP-07-17-Ford-Foc ... 2a0c765a0f you could of course always just upgrade to the sony/sony 6cd if you wish or even the SATNAV u
