fiesta might let my bro use. haven't yet decided, most probably getting a clio RS200 or used Mk6 GTi. blush.gif

Ford Malaysia is having a tough time, in fact Ford in general is going through a bad time now with a lack of new models keeping the brand afloat. I even wonder if the new Fiesta will ever reach our shores...wanted to purchase a Fiesta ST a few months back but car sold.

they want to replace the mk7.5 with the mk8 bcs no more Powershift.
the conventional auto will be less troublesome.

To any and all Fiesta ST Owners that may be a silent reader:

The following message is copy pasted originating from FiestaMk7.co.uk's Facebook Group

QUOTE
FIESTA ST RECALL
Fiesta STs have been recalled with builds from 2/3/2015 to the 31/1/2017.
The recall is titles "17P06 - FIESTA ST IN-USE MONITOR PERFORMANCE RATIO PCM UPDATE."
This requires a PCM update which should take less than 30 minutes to complete but knowing Ford will mean them having your car all fucking day. This WILL wipe ANY remap that is NOT MP215. Please speak to your tuners regarding the implications behind this.
You can find out any outstanding services action required here:
http://www.etis.ford.com/vehicleRegSelector.do
Open that link in INTERNET EXPLORER / EDGE, Click vehicle lookup, type in your reg, click search then look at the "Outstanding Field Service Actions" any recalls will be in there. if you use Chrome then you can't type in the reg and will have to type in your VIN which I'd assume you don't know off by heart, so use a Windows browser tongue.gif (Tested on PC - Not on mobile)


TLDR;
bruce.gif Cars built 2/3/2015 - 31/1/2017 kena recall
bruce.gif PCM update for recall will wipe any remap except for Mountune's MP215
bruce.gif Use this link to enter your VIN to check your car's build date at the top right

Thought of sharing my quick experience with Fiesta's DCT vs Honda Jazz Hybrid DCT

The DCT on the Jazz Hybrid is more refined , no stupid jerkiness . I believe the electric motor is doing a great job in masking the lag created by engine. Since stop-go traffic is handled by electric motor , it just masks it

There is a slight throttle lag , not sure if its electric motor + engine trying to work it out or that's how the dual clutch works

Haven't trashed the car yet , so not sure how it picks up in highway or how it feels in Highway . To me it looks like the japs did some fine tuning to the Hybrid engine to work with Malaysian road conditions and all

Having said that , Fiesta's fabric seats > Honda and also Fiesta's stock speakers are the beast. I mean you get superb sound quality for stock (okie)

Will keep you guys posted

The dearth of low end torque is indeed the bane of our DCT. I believe that is why the ecoboost does better than the NA ones, less judder and better engagements at low speeds.

congrats on your new car btw rclxm9.gif

Thats the advantage of electric motor.
you get 100% torque from the electric motor at 1rpm.
i think the slight lag is a there to protect the gearbox.
instant 100% torque all the time will kill the gearbox faster.

u sure you wont miss the jerkiness after all these years? rclxs0.gif
