its sounds fine to me.

the car audio is perfect..most of the time i dont turn on the audio..coz listening to the whistling sound of the turbo is music to my ears

let me know too how much is SG - TDCI Hatch here

focus or fiesta? interested sign me up if there's a bulk

you want to test alarm is simple

follow this step -
1) Wind down your window
2) Lock your car
3) unlock from inside ( through your winded window)
4) Open the door

voila - the alarm will ring

my 4th day getting foucs whack 180kmh!
but for about 10-15 mins.


people say burn in for new cars better to whack..some have diff opinion.

worst case jus calculate yourself.
in real life im getting about 6.9-7.2 ish normal driving...meter show 5.9 which i think is bullshit

btw - couple of post back someone mention 2012 focus wil not have tdci...thats a blessing in disguise...from the spec, 154 bhp but with lower torque......the current people can remap and gain slightly more power

old still smoke new lol literally

what u mean open once or twise?

auxiliary connector is located in somewhere really stupid!

its located at your glove compartmetn ( you need to open your glove compartment ) and you see a white sticker with an aux hole.


im not sure why the design is as such but its a turn off when i need to plug my ipod in

fiesta is for girls. better have that feature or incorporate that feature in future!

the rear white is reverse light...the other red one is not a cover...its the rear fog light

to activate that light - you need to turn on your headlight, fog light and then pull the light lever one more time ( pull out 2 times ) to activate the rear fog light

not really. it has been relocated to the front of the passenger seat.

Service Center along MRR2 is available. Under Trio Mantap.

Its on a road towards ampang ( on the hill where honda sales office is)

If Ecoboost comes - i will sell mine and get it. However - it depends if the ECU is locked like most of the latest fords - fiesta, focus, mondeo ...all the 2011 model onwards are locked so u cant do a remap.

Guys, i dono who started this 'only can access 1-2-3-4.

the guy that started it must be an idiot that does not know how to drive.

The 6 speed powershift allows you to access ALL 6 gears. There is no such thing as accessing 1-2-3-4 ONLY in S.

The Gearbox has its on ECU that monitors the gearbox parameter ( DCT/PCM) and being dsg it keeps the next gear inline in standby, as soon as you are gear 2, it keeps gear 3 in standby. The only way you cant achieve gear 5-6 is you drive like a nanny - however i dont think it stops you from achieving the other 2 gears.


HOWEVER here's the downside to the Powershift. There is a limiter in the gearbox that does not allow you to downshift freely like a manual. To downshift from 4 to 3, you need to be around 2K or 2.5k RPM - then only it allows you to downshift....same goes from 3 to 2 ( however it may be around 1.5-2k RPM). Its not a fault with the box...its the box protecting itself

I am interested to know the dyno results on the 2.0 MPI engine.

If its 163 on paper, i am putting 100 buck on the table that its below 130 on wheel.

hahaha ok my bad. i thought the MPI engine is on the K5.

the focus has powershift so plus minus 10 percent loss at transmission instead of the usual 20-30% on crapbox

All focus in its generation ( since MK2 ) has different suspension for hatch and sedan.

The sedan is less firmer, more comfort. The hatchback is tune better road holding ( not really that good anyway imho).

This is where you are wrong. The ST is tuned everything. The general focus ecoboost comes in 1.6 L Ecoboost. I

Mondeo/ST uses the 2 liter ecoboost only diff is ST is tuned slightly higher and a manual. Mondeo pushes out 240PS whilst the ST 250 PS.

get the stock tdci, knn filter, remove the cat and spend about 2ish K to remap it via dktuning - you can easily get 180hp with 410nm torque...on WHEEL !


no car in that price range nor in the sub 170k range can give you that power .

Still thinking hard to let the benefits of fuel consumption ( 7l/100km at 180KMh) for the ST.

with all these aes etc, i am reluctant but who knows.
