need help with focus st no boost!!! OIL FILTER HOUSING REPLACEMENT
thanks for looking, i have had great advice from you lot before, and really need some more please!
my friend has an st on an 07 plate, and had a strange prob, first thing is the car has hardly any boost in low gears, but some more in the higher one's, now this is the weired bit there is a whining coming from the turbo on tick over, but if you pull up the dip stick a tad it stops????? any clues with this would be great as my mate cant really use the car and cant spare any more cash at fords!!!! anyone else had a simler prob?? thanks in advance people |
The only thing pulling the dip stick out might do is release some back pressure from blow by but i cant see that being an issue, plus if there was any it would blow the dipstick out anyway. On such a new car like an ST its very unlikely plus it would have no relation to the turbo what so ever.
I would pull off the hose to the turbo and check for play in the shaft, if its starved of oil its already shagged. You sure its not just a leak |
Oil filter housing diaphragm has gone. Really common fault on the ST's.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZH1xei0-b0 oh man your a god!!:lol: now the big question any idea on part numbers?? and price to fix?? i will have a go at fitting it for him if not to much prob.... again many thanks for the quick response thanks god for the fourm's!!! |
i think the part is around £150 or you can get it from volvo for a bit cheaper. It's held in with 4 bolts, one on top and 3 from underneath, a wiring plug and a hose connector. Should take about an hour if you're handy with a spanner!

i found a guide somewhere shows you how to do it actually, i'll have a look tomorrow see if i can find it again!

When you put the foot down it only reads 1/4 on the boost gauge any one have any clues what could make this happen ?
|
I have exactly the same problem with my Mondeo 2.5T.
Thanks for this post! |
boost solinoid for your quarter boost. Another common problem!

Boost problem
Hello,
I have Focus ST '06 with modification and I have boost problems. I dont have problem that I have always 1/4 of boost, but I dont have proper full boost as I shound have. Also time to time its like.. its going to boost and then pressure wave around 1/4 of boost (you feel like car is not pushing constantly) and then continue into 3/4. With my Dreamscience ECU map I always had 4/4 of boost. Boost seems to me also very slow... Turbo lag takes longer than before. I once had problem with oil housing so I replaced it for new with breath pipe too. Now I hear just a very little whistle from oil housing... not like when I had problem. Is there possibility that its faulted just a very little? Or it can be problem with Boost solenoid? Is problem with solenoid shown on diagnostic as fault? Thanks for help |
