hi all first post wonder if anyone can help
i have recently bought a focus petrol 1.6 ti -vct engine a 55 reg
this vehicle seem to have a few problems it seems to have a noisy engine on starting seems almost old style tappety cant be as no hyd lifters fitted
its ok when warm but is no speed machine
seems needs a boot to get shifting wonder if this is the norm not happy with this mk2 focus
it also produces a funny rattle on start up when warm last about one second funny noise -timing out ?
wonder if anyone else has had these issues
i have changed engine oil + filter -small filter size?ford oil fitted5/30
also changed plugs -ford plugs
any help advice very much appreciated thanks- ibiza
