Had my Focus Titanium+ (mfc. June 2013 reg. July 2013 @ 14000km) not started since Tuesday evening to Saturday evening (4 days) but had no problems or difficulties starting it.

Also, I had checked the battery at the SC after hearing over these issues with a few of the owners (now urself) but the charge was good. Also, have a bluetooth OBD2 scanner to monitor the pre-crank, crank and post-crank charging voltage & I have something like this; pre (11.7), crank (~10.9), post (12.6 when idling, 13.4 when cruising).

From the research done, a defective battery can't retain the charge, so the crank voltage may even dip below 10/9v & pre-crank may be in it's 10s.

2 possibilities you may look into; current being drawn when no in use - electronics including screen are shut off in 20 mins from ignition off, if doors are unlocked. If doors are locked, it happens nearly immediately. Second possibility is a faulty battery that could have been kept too long in storage (under sun) before transported to Malaysia.

My advice, I'm not sure about the SC you're going to but I can advice you to try SDAC, PJ & speak to the branch manager there - well spoken and if he is informed beforehand, your issue would most likely be addressed in the best possible way. You may try the same with the other SCs instead of raising your issues to the foremans or mechanics first.

May I ask if any owners here do not experience even the slightest rattling sound from the steering wheel when the vehicle is going over bad or rough surfaced roads? I want to determine if my vehicle is one of the few that exhibits this rattling sound in the steering wheel. I plan to bring it up to the service centre very soon to see if the rattling sound can be eliminated.

Thanks.

Rattling sound low speed when cornering. Vibrates when brake n full stop at traffic. Next week sending again! *sigh*

Guys,

I have been looking at the Sport+ for some time.
Went to the one of the Capital Intertrade showroom at PJ thought of test driving the car.
However, the SA only allowed me to test drive the Titanium(sedan) version.
Told me that all showrooms do not have a Sport(hatchback) version for test drive.
Is that true?
