  1. Just got my 55 plate back from its 2nd service,they are changing my rear screan under warranty as 2 of the elements have packed up and no visible damage, might be worth asking at your local ford dealer.
  2. My 55 1.8tdci seems to run better on total!!
  3. Do you live in or near manchester,if so where do you take your c-max for its service? I took mine to the local garage where I have been going for the last 15 years with no problems only to find one of the owners has retired and now it is all about quantity not quality,very unhappy.
  4. Just about time for first new tyres,i have read thro the forums but am not sure which to buy. I would like low road noise and reasonable grip. What have you got on yours?? I would think most of you haven't put on the conti's again.
  5. I've had my 55 plate zetec since last april i've done about 8k in it,now 13k on clock.realy happy,averages about 40 mpg,but have seen just short of 60mpg on motorway run from manchester to plymouth and back. Its a bit noisy till warmed up. So far no problems.
  6. Hi, I've got an october 55 plate 1.8 tdci zetec, it hasn't missed a beat yet. I've done 11.2k and the onboard computer tells me I'm doing 49.7 mpg,not sure how accurate it is, but its good to think its not to far out. The only problem is, it is black and a b***h to keep clean.
  7. shooter I was thinking of something similar,perhaps mounted in the removable side panels.How easy will it be to wire in? I don't realy have an electronics type background. I thought i might just have a small inspection type thingy on a flying lead to plug into the 12 v outlet when i need it. any more ideas folks??
  8. Hi,the light in the c-max boot is not bright enough,have any of you upgraded it in any way. I was thinking of an old style reversing or spot type light unit,any ideas?? cheers
  9. as a newish member please what are/is EGR EPB ECU. I have a 1.8 tdci zetec, will it have any of these mystic acronyms ? or do I have to wait till I reach a higher level ? cheers
  10. Cheers for the feed back guys,think i'll give it a try now the price is starting to drop again. Will report back in a couple of weeks.
  11. Hi, are there any benefits to be had mpg wise by using these "special" fuels.I will be doing some long motorway miles soon and wondered if they help.I have a 1.8 tdci and average about 44mpg rond town and 50ish on long runs which I am quite happy with.
  12. I have now sorted it. I have saved the standard setting to my key. I find sport is a bit twitchy.Thanks for the feed back.
  13. Hi,a strange problem,i have a 1.8 tdci and every time i start it,if i check with the on board read out it is defaulting to sport stearing mode.How do i get it to default to standard?? cheers
  14. Hi,I'm a new c-max owner and am so far pleased,I have a 1.8 tdci zetec. I am getting about 48 mpg and wondered if fitting a replacement air filter such as a K and N might improve the mpg.
