Ford focus problem sqelling?
When I pull away the car makes a sqelling noise and when I go into 2 and 3
Could be serentine belt, put a dash of talcum powder on the pulley if it stops the squeal that was the problem. If not it could be clutch release bearing [dry]
Might be your water pump but without hearing it I couldn't be certain. Try asking your local garage.
Faulty or loose serpentine belt, most likely.
Yep. Slipping belt. If not the clutch release bearing may be failing.
Normally due to belt and or tensioner issues ( always replace as a pair) otherwise check water pump bearings etc. Wd40 sprayed on belt when idling. Can often stop such squeals temporarily. Soluble oil in coolant for worn water pump bearings does same. Real cures are affected by replacing faulty parts.
I recommend taking your Focus to the nearest Ford Dealer to be diagnosed. Our certified technicians will be able to advise you of the next steps to reach a resolution.

- Car acceleration problem and idle problem. The car is a 2003 Ford Taurus? . When the car is running and in parked its making a loud consisted rev noise. However the rpm needle thingy is not moving. when i'm in drive the car acclerates on its own with the speed ever increasing. i did some googling and learned that it can be the TPS sensor or the idle air intake valve, among a million other possiblities.
- Veyr scary 2001 ford focus problem? 2001 automatic Ford Focus problem! Randomly when I'm driving at either high or low speeds my car will all of the sudden jolt and lose acceleration as if it shifted into neutral. It only lasts for a second or two and only does this when the "multifunction" light turns on. Sometimes it will stop completely and I will have to restart it at a red light. It will do it for days at a time and then nothing for weeks. It just started doing it again today! What could this be?
- My 2008 2 door ford focus has started to sputter and shake.what could the problem be? At first it started shaking then a couple days later, it started to sputter. I want to take it in but scared they will charge me a fortune on other things that aren't really the problem. Any advice?
- Have a problem with my coolant fan on a 2002 Ford Focus 16v zetec? Recently bought this car, only has 119k miles on it. I noticed the temperature was going 3/4 of the gauge when I was going through a drive through one day. I always thought the coolant fan would come on if you turned on the cars AC, but mine does not come on at all. What should I be checking first? I checked the coolant fan fuse and it is fine. Any advice would be appreciated!
