New to this forum so ello to everyone.
Got a 2005 ford focus c max ghia , 95000 on clock always been serviced by ford just had major service 2 weeks ago.
When i start in the morning i have to wait about 1 min before she will rev propley. If i was to put my foot down before the minute was up blue smoke would start to come out. Also before this from 3rd to 4th gear and only in 4th gear i could only get up to 2 1/2 3000 revs and she would go no more. Sometimes by letting off the power she wold come back or you just changed to 5 gear and its ok but you could not the the speed to go to 6 gear.
Took it back to ford and it was put on there fault machine and 8 faults came up. Wanted £300 just to investergate and worse case is the turbo £1500.
SO told them to stop i will pick it up.
Anyone got any clues as to whats going on?
thanks
Rob

Could be an injector issue, these engines are prone to injector faults. I'd advise taking it to a diesel specialist, cheaper and far more experienced at this sort of thing that an apprentice at Ford with little more than a laptop!
