2011 1.4 Zetec

Post by PandaDog15 »

Hello,

I recently purchased a 2011 1.4 Zetec with 27000 miles on the clock and generally loving the car.

It drives great around in the low gears, picks up fast as it should in gear 1 & 2, but if I'm on a slight up hill and joining a dual carriage way, from 30mph when I put it into 4th it can barely crawl up the hill with really slow acceleration..

I'm just wandering if anyone else has this?

Maybe it something I need to get used to and put it into 4th gear in a higher rev range..3 gear can be like it too sometimes

The car engine bay was really dusty/dirty when I bought it, dealer cleaned it up before I picked it up so I'm thinking about putting a K & N filter in it and giving the MAF sensor a quick clean, any thoughts?

THanks
