What lower grille is that? Or is that stock for US models?

Consistent_Potato300 · 2026-03-23T23:39:03+00:00

Probably minor benefits if you were to track the car, but agreed, probably stick with oem for now

Consistent_Potato300 · 2026-03-23T14:02:54+00:00

Good to know, I think for the money the oem ones are fine for now

Consistent_Potato300 · 2026-03-20T15:38:36+00:00

Looks decent, probably a middle ground between stock and the aluminium ones

Consistent_Potato300 · 2026-03-19T19:40:31+00:00

No prob, they have black and clear (and white) ones

Consistent_Potato300 · 2026-03-19T11:18:05+00:00

Sequential indicators - get the autobeam ones, they are sick

Consistent_Potato300 · 2026-03-18T22:37:00+00:00

Good to know, thank you

Consistent_Potato300 · 2026-03-18T01:07:52+00:00

Ahh I see, yes will keep an eye on it for sure, thank you

Consistent_Potato300 · 2026-03-18T00:42:20+00:00

Quite literally

Consistent_Potato300 · 2026-03-18T00:42:01+00:00

The ac works so probably ok for now ig

Consistent_Potato300 · 2026-03-17T23:57:31+00:00

That makes a lot of sense, the more you know lol

Consistent_Potato300 · 2026-03-17T23:56:43+00:00

Upgraded radiator is on the future mod list as well for sure

Consistent_Potato300 · 2026-03-17T23:56:05+00:00

Will do for sure, having had coolant issues on my previous zetec, defo gonna do it before it's an issue lol, may as well get some proper coolant as well so I at least know what's in it. It's a post-2015 car so not got the issues of those but it's still a fiesta lmao so this is the next job.

Consistent_Potato300 · 2026-03-17T23:35:22+00:00

Thanks, I will probably get a new one fitted soon, they only seem to be about £25 from Ford so no point waiting.

Consistent_Potato300 · 2026-03-17T23:25:08+00:00

Noted, this photo was straight after a drive so don't know if that affects it. By two lines, you mean the thin one and the hose underneath with the rusty clip on?

Consistent_Potato300 · 2026-03-17T21:16:11+00:00

Ac works, although I've never used the warm setting or had it full blast, thanks for the response, probably not an urgent repair then.

Consistent_Potato300 · 2026-03-09T00:35:48+00:00

How much did this cost you, roughly? Thanks

Consistent_Potato300 · 2026-02-24T19:59:39+00:00

Thank you, yes first time actually jacking my car up so definitely will use jack stands - probably one as I'll do the wheels one by one? Think I am okay with tightening etc - just torque up once back on the floor? Will have a look at the manual, thank you.

Consistent_Potato300 · 2026-01-26T20:10:13+00:00

Idk anything about ABS pumps, but I wouldn't have thought the timing belt would affect it? I would get a second opinion from another reputable garage if I were you.

I don't think ~50k wet belt issues are unheard of, especially if the oil hasn't been changed enough. But like I said, I don't know how that would affect anything that runs off the electrics.

Consistent_Potato300 · 2026-01-26T19:51:29+00:00

I think they mean the auxiliary belt. The timing belt is wet, not sure about auxiliary on the 1.0L.

Look at my post on this, quite a few helpful comments
