Ford Focus 05 2.0 eng 109 thou miles vibration prob in steering wheel at idle?
Ok this is a flaw with most ford focuses but the degree of vibration differs at different times. One time no noticeable vibration the next more. There's no noticeable vibration when I drive goes away as soon as I hit the gas I don't think it is the rotors. Vibration continues in steering wheel when I let off brake at spot light only goes away when I drive. I'd guess motor mount but why would the vibration differ at various stops. I'd say tune up but car drives fine no vibration someone suggested jacking up engine a wee bit under oil pan and see if vibration goes away. I'm guessing perhaps an air leak in one of the hoses going to the engine. What do you think
Is your idle dropping (Tach drop below 500rpm) when this happens? I had a 2000 that would stumble at idle (drop rpm) bur run fine at speed and no gas mileage losses - changing spark plugs helped the first time but 20k miles later it was doing it again - I eventually chased it down to a cracked coil pack (new one at Amazon for about 25usd fixed the problem forever).
- 1995 Ford Taurus with a steering issue. When I turn the steering wheel to a certain spot left or right it will start moving back and forth? According to previous owner the rack and pinion was previously replaced. Steering wheel Is off a little to the right. Any ideas?
- I bought an Actron CP9125 Code Reader to try and diagnose a rough idle at cold start on a 98 Ford 4.0 engine. The rough idle had not caused? The CEL to come on. I plugged the code reader in with just the key on and pressed read and the little asterisk goes half-way across the screen one time and stops. I press the read button again and it reads 0 codes. I was thinking it would scan multiple times to check for pending codes or other issues. I tried it with the engine running and the same thing happens. Is this code reader operating properly?
- Locked steering wheel and ignition in 2004 ford focus? Would I get a locksmith to help solve this? And what's the cost looking like? It's happened multiple times and I was able to fix it myself but no matter what I do and try it won't unlock, I think it may be a problem with the cylinder in the ignition
- Why Does Replacing Idle Air Control Valve on 2002 Ford F150 not correct Idle issue? Got A check engine light. Code said Idle Air Contol Valve. Purchased A control valve at parts store. Replaced control valve with new one. Engine Idled up real high. Attempted driving, thought computer had to reset. Engine still idled up too high. Parts store said vehicle had to be driven for at least 20 miles for control valve to operate correctly. Drove truck 30 miles, engine started to surge. Put old control valve back in and engine does not idle high or surge but stalls out.( suggestions) ?
