Re: 2009 Fiesta Titaniam 1.4 diesel probelm

Fantastic find. Will try that on mine.

[edit]

Just done this. Should take 30 mins. The link shows a metal fan/thermistor whereas mine is plastic. It sits in a little clip on the inside of the dash. It's this that's causing the buzzing.

I now have a very nearly silent Festa :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

I have a set of 13" winter tyres on Vauxhall wheels, but these wont fit a Ford. SO, if a 13" wheel would clear the calipers, then I could pick up some steel wh...

Re: 1.6 TDCI mpg

Mine ranges from 52mpg to 67mpg. I mostly do a commute of 40 miles on open A roads. http://i220.photobucket.com/albums/dd3/eatcs01/Fiestamileage.jpg I usually change up a gear between 1500 & 2000 rpm. I use cruise control on the flat bits (so quite a lot here in Norfolk). I rarely use the air con. L...
