Ford focus.clicking and whirring noise, mostly when i go into a right hand corner?
If I shake the steering wheel on the straight I hear clicking, i'm sure its ABS related but what?
brakes are working fine, abs lights never flicking?

I have had my Ford for just under a month now and it has only done 500 miles.
I got in the car this morning and put my key in the ignition, put it in gear and tried to pull off but it wasn't moving - it then started beeping and flashing up with he message "Engine malfunction - Service now"
I took the key out put it in again and the same message flashed up for a matter of seconds and then everything was fine.
Not long afterwards the message is popping up saying my washer fluid is low - which was correct… Is this my car sending me the wrong message before had? Has anybody else had this problem and can help me?
Ok so I bought a 2013 Ford Focus, it has a fuel tank capacity of 12.5 gallons of gas on regular I get 454 miles on a tank on mid grade I get 490 MPG on Premium I'm getting 629 MPG on 12.5 gallons. I was blown away it took me 6 months of testing to get the 629 miles per gallon, my question is this how do I get that good of mileage when the factory says it should be 41 or 42 highway? I'm I doing something wrong? I filled with the Premium grade drove 629 miles filled up and only used 10 gallons to fill up again, is anyone else getting the same results? The hours were 9 hours 19 minutes average speed was 65 MPH?
When driving in any gear at any speed my car judders to no end if clutch is released while accelerator is pressed. If both pedals released car is fine but when accelerator is pressed car jols and judders as if its about to stall.
Accelerator and clutch pressed = fine
Accelerator pressed and clutch released = judder
both released = fine
(clutch pressed only slightly… Nothing engages or does anything just a little weight on the peddle is required)
mechanic can find no issue or damage anywhere on vehicle.
I have a 2002 Ford Focus LX with about 130,000 miles on it. If I drive it on the highway for about 15 minutes, when I finally turn the car off, it won't start back up unless I get a jump or if I let it sit for about 2 hours. I've gotten a new alternator a new battery and new battery terminals (old ones were corroded). Can someone please tell me what's wrong with my car, I'm tired of wasting money on things that don't need to be fixed.
I want to give a gift to my friend for her birthday, and I made a cd of all the songs she really likes. I only have CD-RW's, and after reading a little bit I found out that those don't work in some players. I was just wondering should I make the cds on a CD-R type of CD or can I stick with the ones that I have?
I want to put the front seat of my old ford focus in my new honda civic because the ford seats are way more comfortable than my honda seat. Anyway i'm really close with a mechanic that works at a body shop. He told me it is possible but bring it in it can be easy or really complicated. I want to do it myself because he will charge me a good buck. If it is possible what will I need tools, Frame, seat adjustment, etc I have no clue so how should I do this and go about it?
Ok so i have a 2002 ford focus. Over A month ago i was hearing a clanking sound in engine which i was told was my catalyctic converter. Well a month ago that stopped and now suddenly having violent vibrations coming from engine that occurs on occasion. It usually happens when starting car or stopping at a light. When the vibrations occur it is hard to accelerate and if i turn car right off then back on it won't start until second try. It has thrown service engine light on twice now. First time said 4th cylinder misfired so i replaced spark plugs and second time was just this last week and have been unablr to get it checked. Can someone possibly give me an idea what may need to be fixed and cost wise?
The temperature gauge on my '01 Focus (2.0 Zetec 4cyl, manual trans, 210K miles) recently went from "normal" as I had been driving 50-55mph for about 10 minutes to "red" in a matter of seconds as I was braking to make a turn, then returned to "normal" as I pulled over.
I immediately pulled to the shoulder and shut the engine off after making the turn. Saw no leaks, belt is fine, water pump turns freely, no noises or smells, coolant and oil levels were full, no "gunk" on oil cap. Turned the key back to the 'on' position and the temperature read "normal" less than 2 minutes after I had pulled over.
I had it towed home, and once home I checked the return hoses from the thermostat and radiator to the coolant reservoir - no coolant was flowing out of either of them with the engine running. (Not sure if this is normal or not?). Temp gauge once again fluctuated up and down. I turned the heat on for the short time I ran the engine and the heat blew consistently warm, not extremely hot and never fluctuated cold-to-hot etc.
I maintain the car well, the coolant system hadn't been opened since last Fall (to check antifreeze quality before a Minnesota winter) and with no obvious leaks I doubt it's just air trapped in the system (?) because I don't know how air would have gotten in.
The water pump has about 90K miles on it. Thermostat is about 5 years old. Temp sensor (or sensors?) original. Had car since new.
Any ideas greatly appreciated, thanks for your help!
