My petrol car sounds like a diesel?
I have a 1.8, 10 plate ford focus with only 60.000 miles on the clock. I've recently noticed that the engine don't sound like it used too when I first brought it. I also noticed a clunking sound when engaging the clutch, I used to be able to get 130mph out of her but I'd be lucky if I get 120mph now, she don't preform like she used to. I don't hammer the engine and treat the car bad, I've had it just over a year now but why the sudden loss of power? Much appreciated for those who read and reply thank you!
So let me get this straight. You have a car with a very small petrol engine that sounds more like a diesel. You've pushed it up to 130 miles per hour and you don't treat it bad? The engine is under tremendous stress at those speeds and being so small, its not made to sustain them so of course you're going to break it and it won't perform like it used to. You sir, are an idiot.
Fuel filter, injectors clogged, fuel pump weak, fuel pressure regulator, could be anything related to those.
Ford build CR4P engines down to a price, not UP to a high standard.
- I think I blew a fuse in my 2002 Taurus. I can't find the fuse and want to know if it sounds like i did? So when changing a Puddle Light in my 2002 Ford Taurus I hit the wire that connected the lighting and lighting case to my mirror. Something sparked and my interior lighting, glove box lighting, and mirror lighting is not working. Is this something as simple as a fuse?
- I have a 2010 Ford Mustang and every time it rains it sounds like the water is accumulating in the door? I have a 2010 Ford Mustang and every time it rains it sounds like the water is accumulating in the door. Is there a drain or plug that I need to attend to?
- How to change what your car sounds like? I'm building project car/sports buggy with my dad, dad's mate and his son and I was wondering what parts make a car sounds like what it does. I want it to sound like a Chevy camaro or ford mustang gt500 where it's got a really bad *** intense wobble wobble wobble wobble. I'm sure the engine makes noise. I've read online that the exhaust can be changed to make a different sound too. Not sure if its true though. Not really experienced at this stuff.
- On my 2004 ford fusion my fob don't work the alarm sounds soon as I put the key into the door and turn it? If I pull the central locking fuse out the alarm stops so it's drivable but was wondering what could be doing it as I was thought to believe if I put the key into the ignition the alarm should stop but it don't any ideas would be most appreciated
