Would be a bit worried about that ebay mod these things tend to trick the sensors into throwing extra fuel into the engine, not good can cause problems with the cat in long run. In my opinion they are a complete waste of money. Induction kit will add a little bit more power but don't expect miracles will only be 4 - 5 bhp at best, but you do get that induction roar. Other thing to change is the exhaust to let the gas out the engine quicker, again don't expect any huge power gains. Hope that gives you a bit of an idea mate.

How To make ST Bumpers fit into a MK2 5Dr Hatch
menzies26 replied to dave6202uk's topic in MK2 - Ford Focus 2005 > 2011
Thats becauses that picture is of his girlfriends car. -
Nope nothing special about the ST glove box just the same as the rest.
-
Better to upgrade the standard speakers instead of cutting holes in the parcel shelf. Take a look in the ICE section there are loads of speaker choices that people have made in there. By the way standard speakers are 5"x7" incase you are trying to find out.
-
I am sure that a few people on here have fitted 18's without rack limiters and have had no problems.

Sounds about right last time mine was still dripping oil off the engine tray a week later. Mine is off in to Frauds in the morning for its second service.
-
Car looking good like them wheels, why do ford still put the ugly black plastic bits on cars looks much better colour coded like the rest.
-
They should fit thats the same size wheels that are on the ST, only thing is that the ST has rack limiters fitted. I have heard from some people that you can get away without the rack limiters

Rear brake discs deleted from new models
menzies26 replied to Cherry's topic in MK2 - Ford Focus 2005 > 2011
Never seen anybody complaining about rear discs I think mine are great look much better than the drums -
I got to agree with that when I first got mine I had a hell of a time trying to reverse into the drive.

Might be worth while having a look around the brake system sounds as if he has a leak somewhere on the system. -
Suggestions for sun visor problems
menzies26 replied to rnem170's topic in MK2 - Ford Focus 2005 > 2011
You could look into getting a sunstrip fitted to the windscreen, it doesn't have to be huge but you can get them the get lighter at the bottom. -

When I have done my brakes in the past I haven't bothered with the ignition and have had no problems. -

You will be able to pick up the tool to at most car shops I know that Halfords have them -
I have had that message before as well just left the car for a while and when I went back it was all back to normal
-
You could ask a local garage if they have stud removal tools they might do the job.
-
I would think that you should be ok with fitting aftermarket pads, but not 100% sure so best bet is to ask your dealer.
-
Haven't fitted them to my new car but I did have them fitted to my mk1.5. I can tell you they did make a big difference not only in stopping power but they also keep your alloys a lot cleaner. The green stuff pads give off less brake dust.
-
Never seen them before but they do look good, might be a mod for the future.
-
My car has this "drip tray" fitted as well, don't think it makes much difference the engin bay still gets as dirty as the rest of the car.
-
Looks like similar tint levels that I went for in my car, improves the look of the car if you ask me. Dare I ask what is next on the list, once you start you just can't stop.
-
Looks like you got lucky ther with your tyre, I recently had to replace one of mine because of a puncture. Hit a pothole and got a small slit on the sidewall it was a * * * * because it was nearly new.

How often do you change your car?
menzies26 replied to Jo@AFOnline's topic in MK2 - Ford Focus 2005 > 2011
I have been changing my car just about every year since I got my licence. But With the ST coming up to its 1st birthday there is no way I am going to part with it yet, having to much fun :D :D -
Great looking car you got there, the light brows make the car look more aggressive 8) 8)

Colour coding does look a lot better in my opinion, but then again it didn't cost me anything, everything was colour coded when I got the car
