Minnesota Focus Owners Club

Hey,

I was wondering if anyone who lived in the Twin Cities area had a free afternoon or evening in the next few weeks to help me figure out whey my car is acting up. I would even pay for lunch or dinner! I live in Woodbury.

Thanks

Randy Rydeen

I live in woodbury part time

Come out to the meet in front of Shane co. at 7 on monday. We can take a ride and figure it out.

I work this coming Monday till 930-10pm but I work at Tamrack. Would you still be there at that time?

I should be down in that area

What's it doing?

Where to begin... First off when the lights are on they flicker a little bit...I have read aobut this a little on the forums but don't know where to begin to look for the problem. Second when the car is idling it sounds goofy...to explain it goes in and out. Having the air on or off does not matter either. You would have to hear it to know what I mean. I know some different parts have been known to go out around this time (near 70,000 miles) ex. DPFE so I hope to find out if that is the case.
I have no idea. It bugs me when I am at a light so I hope someone can help me out.

My lights flickered at idle and when driving down the road, after extensive serarching, I was told this was OK since the focus had shitty grounds, I did upgrade some grounds.

As for sounding goofy, I think you are going to have to deal with that, as long as everything works, there really is no way to diagnose something like that, if you take it to a shop they will hand it right back to you.

May be obvious, but are you running an Underdrive pulley at all? If so, this will happen with one....
