You EU guys are fortunate that both your TC's and Focus"s are available with standard trans missions. That alone would make the swap much easier. I think that the swap could be done here if all the electronics on the in car unit were installed on the power plant to be installed .

If you go to ford. com you can download an owners Manual for both cars and see what the transmission ratios are between the Focus and the TC. Let Us Know what you find.

The adaptor and the free software makes the Lap top a scan tool which would allow the steering relearn to be done. I think we are on the same page Don!

A good scan tool will you perform a steering angle relearn , a good place to start.

Brake Issue (Clutch related?)
G B L replied to LakeDistrictPaul's topic in Brakes, Chassis & Suspension
Sounds like a vacuum gauge on the line from the pump to the booster would be a good test for the pump. Would love to see the routing diagram for the hoses. -
Brake Issue (Clutch related?)
G B L replied to LakeDistrictPaul's topic in Brakes, Chassis & Suspension
Any chance of a Vacuum diagram? We have little access to any literature on the EU Models. If the brakes are normal with it in gear something is switching the booster off when either the clutch or the shift linkage is moved. Any chance of pictures and more information? -
Brake Issue (Clutch related?)
G B L replied to LakeDistrictPaul's topic in Brakes, Chassis & Suspension
The US does not have the diesel version. How is the vacuum pump driven? could the clutch linkage be hitting something when engaged? Any pictures of the booster and clutch pedal layout? -

Check the manual there may be an audio in in the console.

Check the fluid Level , have some one shift the car while you Look at the Motor. How many Miles is the warranty ? Get the shift memory cleared so the TC can learn how you drive . Changing the Trans fluid would not hurt either. Did you get a really good deal? The operative theme for me and used cars is Do You Feel Lucky!

New VW Caddy, the basis for the next Transit Connect
G B L replied to mrtn's topic in Lounge Transit Connect
That does not make me happy, a cross breed between VW and Ford . Could be a mess. The specs for the one for over here will be interesting . Hey Maybe an Air Cooled Boxer engine! -
Great Idea Less Choice so the Rest of the Manufactures can take its easy and let the products become not as good!

Nice we will probably not see it over here any time soon!

You need a driver and then you can be in the back with your ear in the right place and not trying to avoid hitting a tree. I am waiting for the results of the search.
-
Good info. The safety cable would hit the steel rim if it were to hit anything. Sounds like you need to be in back with your ear to the floor. Keep us posted on your test ride.
-
Is the TC a 5 or 7 passenger ? Taken it out for a ride with all the seats folded. on the Spare could the safety cable be hitting the tire when it is up tight against the Car?
-
The Plot thickens sounds like a run with the tailgate ajar and secured is next. You need to check the two removable panels on on either side in the back. the left one has the jack some one could have put something in there. Is the spare tire carried under the car in the normal position? There is a second cable that is there for added safety so it has slack when the tire is up. Keep us posted.

If you mount a GPS in the right place the speedo problem will be eliminated and as an added bonus the tire size will no longer be an issue.
