When my keyless played up and after getting new batt and key tested, I was advised to unplug the battery for a few mins and it all worked fine after that. Will not cost you anything and just make sure you have your keycode. worked for me anyway

Can of raid. Shut door/overnight. Just make sure u leave the car to air for a couple of hrs and freshen after lol Surely that ickle spider cant set off an alarm? U checked behind the dash for the big mum dad spider :-)

Did cross my mind but the 5 pot growl of the focus did it for me. Finally got round to some pics. Car still needs to go back for mop rear dent bumper scratch and 4 wheels refurp foc :-) Thinking of grey wheels for a change. Miss the clio awesome brakes and go cart handling in...

poor gal maybe she was pulling her lipstick and compact for a touch up before pulling into the pits. Funny that women never really made it into proper motorsport lol could make F1 more amusing

isn't the dot the 'natural' place for the tyre to be aligned to the valve for best tyre balance lol

just a thought, was autogits recommended by your insurance? if so give them some stick too in parallel if its their 'recommended' repairer. you insurance pays the bit over the excess if it was insurance job

nope focus was hit. clio is going to auction as they dont want the hassle lol yeah will get some pics up this weekend. That 2.5 just sound awsome and the leather in the st3 is very nice.

will get some pics on at the weekend. cheers for info guys. slightly off topic, anyone who read the aches I had with the dealer/clio would probably think I'm either the unluckiest guy or karma is out to get me. Car was in collection area and just before I collected, a range rover nudged it on...

Finally done it bought a Focus ST-2 225 with with stage 1 running at 260 Will miss the handling of the clio as the focus does not feel as nimble and clio brakes were better + had cruise. I also prefered the driving position of the clio, but will prob find my comfort zome in a couple of...

list it saying cambelt needs doing and will be sold with cambelt done for asking price. If buyer wants to negotiate, it can be one less bll ache and bargaining chip for you. Personally I would prefer buying a car for less and getting the cambelt done somewhere local to me and trusted...

yep focus. Think people are lost and spend all their time weaving through the clutter they give up. Passion ford had lots of factual stuff including how to retrofit Cruise control but it was not very organised. Best be careful now. someone on here my be a member of the forum I adopt.. people...

ooohh who is that then. I have a focus and turned down the fiesta. Yes ads are utter waste of time and more of a cash generating income. If ads were from actual site traders/enthusiasts promoting value....

Jase, you done such a good job here, how about replicating a clio197/200 forum. Pllleeeaaassseee lol

Been here for a few months not and only just realised how well laid out/designed and intuitive this forum/site is. As I'm changing cars, I've joined a couple of related forum and immediately noticed how bloated the sites are and its a bit of a mess. Quite a few ford forums, so hopefully...

Cheers Si To be honest, the clio only averaged 21.01 MPG in the 3k I put on it in the last 3 months. I have seen 33mph if I baby it on the motorway at low 50's mph but quickly drops once its driven. :-) 25mpg aint bad, happy with that and agree on exclusivity. Be my 4th Ford RS...
