Ahseng 5th Gear April 21, 2013 Share April 21, 2013 (edited) Can't think of anything bad. Trade in my mk3 for an 08 mk4 six months ago and have not spent a cent on repairs or replacement part. Good styling, spacious, excellent handling, adequate power, and a fun auto/manual gearbox. edit: mybad, just saw your post above . mk4. From wat period onwards it's mk4? ermm now i'm confused. Look at my post above for the url. Is that mk3 or mk4? Edited April 21, 2013 by Ahseng ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jnxho Neutral Newbie May 3, 2013 Share May 3, 2013 My 1st day with a 08 mondeo 2.3, still having problem to access ford forum. Need few pointers for members who are driving the same model. My petrol tank doesn't comes with a cap, is this correct? The pump attendant pump 57L and my fuel gage shows slightly above half tank which able to drive for 225km. According to specs I read , full tank Shd be 70l is this correct? Changing my audio head unit , how will this affect the car meter ? Will the system be smart enough to read the new head unit. The stock unit radio station will appear at the car speedometer LCD screen wonder will it be the same, Thks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
