  2. Mk3 Suspension, Steering & Chassis
    Hi Folks - I've got 2014 PFL estate on 65k miles that's just had a clutch replaced. I am now getting the EPAS steering going dead occasionally while driving - typically at low speeds or slowing down. When I say dead I mean off. There is no assist at all. A few days after the clutch job I had...
  3. Mk2 Turbo & Intercooler
    Hello. So i`m having this strange boost pressure problem. The car is a `09 and only modifications are bsr remap and turbosmat recirc. I have the very common problem with 1/4 or 0.3 bar boost pressure to the dial. Sometimes when flooring it at 5th or 6th gear the pressure rises almost to normal...
  4. Mk2 Engine, Exhaust and Induction
    Hello, Guys, I have got an ST3 and the car was running very well until one day I push it a bit hard on a race track for about 1-2 hour time. After that, I start feeling that the response of the engine comes late. Before the track day on 4th gear, the torque produced by the engine was hitting the...
  5. Mk3 Petrol Engine, Exhaust and Induction
    Hey Guys n Girls Been a while since I posted here. Just had my Coolant sensor changed. Just wondering if anyone else has had sensor problems. Only reason I ask is the car is not even 8 months old. The technician commented to say it was odd, but sensors are finicky things. Erractic idling...
  6. Focus ST Mk2 Non Technical Discussion
    Hey all. I know people ask frequently about this but everytime i want to get it on a dyno something always seems to go wrong. Not necessarily the car lol. I would like to ask roughly what I should be running. Aim when started modding was 300bhp. I have milltek 3"downpipe 200 cell sports cat and...

  8. Mk2 Engine, Exhaust and Induction
    Hi all, In my mind now I'm set at wanting my ST to run at around 300Bhp. So far its at stage 1 and has the RS clutch conversion upgrade, and I have the R-Sport intercooler stage 1 sat at home ready for fitting tomorrow hopefully. What upgrades will I need to run my car at 300Bhp? I can assume...
  9. Mk2 Engine, Exhaust and Induction
    My ST225 has started cutting the power at around 5000rpm in all gears, it feels as if the traction control is coming on but the wheels aren't losing traction! It completely cuts the power and the turbo pressure drops off until the revs drop down and then it kicks back in only to be cut again...
  10. Mk2 ECU Remapping, Software & Tuning Packages
    Hello guys, im new here, I just bought ST225 and I found a power curve from dyno. Can somebody explain me, what's wrong with it? Results are really bad I think. Car was with Stage 1 Bluefin and K&N CAIS. The curve is OK, until 4000rpm. What could be wrong? Is it just bad piece of engine with...
  11. Mk2 Engine, Exhaust and Induction
    In the spirit of doing mods which the wife won't spot and keeping the budget small is this worth getting done, stupidly missed out on a S/H downpipe in the classifieds because I forgot to message the seller (doh) but there are loads around for reasonable money. Question is whether this will...

    Hi. This is my first time on the forum and really need some advice!! At the weekend I had my air con cleaned and recharged. When I went to the garage they said an engine warning light came on and it said loss of acceleration- the garage were confused as they didn't think it was them as the just...
  14. Mk2 Turbo & Intercooler
    Basically, I'm looking to give my 2008 facelift ST3 a bit more go, but without spending loads. Was simply going to go for a remap, but then figured if I spend a bit more before the remap it'll be much more worthwhile... Would a cheap intercooler be worth bothering with? Or is there any other...
