Another job for the to do list! my Mondeo 1.8 dies a few years back due to sudden loss of coolant - metal pipe at front round gearbox rusted through! Don't want to revisit that experience again!

Do you or someone on the forum know of someone who is keen to sort my S40, on an 05 reg, has the 1.8 FORD FOCUS motor as it has no compression on cylinder 3. Cost effectively please. Maybe the valves as I have done all the checks. Or it's for sale at a reasonable price Ta Kassie 07828879494 |

Thanks a bunch
Just checked mine and it so rusty and could actually give way any time soon,
Couldn't loose it so I cut it and go a stainless steel type and replace. can be done from under without removing the radiator. |

Hose Clip Warning
Thanks so much for this warning! I've just checked the clip on my 1999 S40 1.6 and it IS corroded.
I have just ordered a MIKALOR W4 all stainless hose clamp, size 40 - 43mm, from e-bay seller jml-henderson at £2.50 inc 2nd class P&P. Has anyone else tried using a MIKALOR clip? |
