Hi All, new White Ford Focus Titanium+ owner here... I love my new car!!! But unfortunately when it was delivered today my Odometer showed 999999 (MAX) on its mileage. So tomorrow my sales person will be sending over to Ford to have it fixed... sigh and I was sooo looking forward to taking it out for a nice spin on my holidays today.

Anyone heard of this problem before?

Anyone got anything feedback regarding the Sony sound system on the Focus? Ok ka?

Thank you..... i'm also trying to locate good service centers that all the experienced owners can vouch for. Any recommendations?

P/S I am currently working in Puchong and apparently there is a Ford 3S Centre by Persada, saw a review online that said "if you love your car dont ever send it there". Don't want to believe only one bad comment so does anyone else here have any experience with this service center?

Hi Rooks... for test drive you can go to the Ford showroom in PJ, the one facing the federal highway. I did my first test drive there, but bought from Trio Mantap after they gave me the best discount.

Hi Rooks, already sent PM to you.

Thanks for the info, did they manage to solve the issue and how would you rate their service there?

Thank you very much, I think if like that then I better just stick to the PJ one. =D

Dear sifus, I remember reading in the previous thread that due to the size of the number plate being too big it will affect the front sensor when the parking sensor is activated and it will beep non stop. Mine has that issue and I cannot seem to find that page anymore. May I know how to rectify this issue?

Haha thanks... do alot of fofo get this problem? I mean if mine has that issue that would mean that the others have it as well so should't the SA already know not to issue so big ones? I think the problem lies with all the dealers want to put their branding on the plates

Thank you... seems to have solved the issue for now

Seems that lately FOFO owners not so active anymore compared to during the 1st version thread. Where have all the sifus gone? So much more to learn from you guys.

Anyone want to share their experiences now that they have gotten the FOFO MK3 alot longer? Any other joys, or even issues that isn't that common to share?

Would like to ask all the sifus about the low speed juddering issue, I find that its the worst especially moving from 0 - 50 kmph, especially in Jams or when you just started to move the car. Its even worse when you step on the accelerator really really lightly, as it really does seem that it revs up higher and then moves to 2nd gear causing it jerk because of the gear shift. But if you do step on the accelerator it more consistently (aka picking up speed) its much better and the juddering is not so noticeable. It feels really like when in super low speeds like in Jam or maybe in the car park etc when very low speeds are needed its a little confused on how the gear shifts should be handled, esp from 1st to 2nd gear. (that or I'm used to how my VIOS drives haha)

Is this the common juddering in low speed characteristic of the FOFO in low speed that everyone is talking about, or is mine kinda out of character?

Ahh thats good to know... was worried for a second that my ride was worse than others.

Hi All... 2 weeks in with my Focus... loving it. But are some observations...

1. Jerking at low speeds - For those who are new, hopefully this might help you (that or my fofo has issues), at very low speeds in a jam or parking, be prepared for the jerking to be more prominent. At super low speeds make sure your pressure on the pedal is light but consistent. My habit was to just touch it and let go, then when needed press again (as it was enough for my vios), this makes the jerking quite bad, it seems like that car does not know which gear to shift and goes up and down.. but once you get the hang of it, it gets better and only annoys you occasionally.

2. Fuel Consumption - I'm averaging 8.9 to 9.1 for mixed highway and city (jam) and for me it could be better, but for the power and a 2 liter car i would say its quite acceptable, and it seems to get better and better every time i fill up. So maybe i'll update again. I can't use FUELY yet as some of the members here do as my Odometer is faulty and it shows 9999999 and won't move anymore. The Ford service center has already ordered my part and it will take 4 weeks.

3. Would like to ask if anyone knows how to toggle dual trip odometers like in most other cars? Or is there only 1 trip odometer available?

4. Does our Ford Focus come with any built in Car Alarm? Just Curious.

Overall... I LOVE IT and am enjoying every moment driving it. Even if it requires quite a lot of tender loving care as its white and gets dirty super easily.

Why not? Try to insist as I will be insisting on mine as well, but at the same time, anyone here can let us know what is the latest firmware available and how to check (It might be in V1 but not sure where to find it). Just in case the SA didn't do but tell you do already.

Anyone get higher FC once updated to new firmware?

Bro.... push until so hard meh haha... I sayang my car too much leh. Scary leh.

Hi All, any Sifus can advise on where to get touch up paint for Focus MK3 the White colour? Some A$$hole go open door next to mine and now there is a gash on the handle. Chipped all the way in... =(

Hahaha bro...... you organize lo......... I'll sign up first. =D

P/S My wife really likes the mat leh =D

Bro where did you get your car serviced? I want to upgrade my firmware also, and my wipers shuddering at the edges... I thought mine was the only one. Anyone else have this issue?
