Hi Magfocus,

 

the front and rear doors for the sedan can accomodate up to 6x8" for the speakers.

 

I changed my fronts to VDO Dayton 2-way components to 6.5" and the rears to 6.5" coaxials.

 

Mine's a hatch, but its the same for the sedan.

[Magfocus]

 

So the fronts are bigger than on normal cars??

[Magfocus]

RM just called me to tell me that i can collect my car on Sat

 

When you go down to fix it, could you ask if they have the Focus spoiler? I asked my SE but he didnt really know anything about it!!

 

Thanks

[Turbobrick]

Alrite! Must be really itchy waiting for your new ride

[Magfocus]

 

seriously cannot wait already!!!

[Turbobrick]

So Sat yourself, your better half, mother, father, grandpa, grandma, uncle, auntie, cousin, etc all going to see Ur new Focus?

[Renegade]

Well done, friend - I can understand how happy you are. My only gripe with RM concerning the Focus is that they don't have a manual 5-door and I'm finding it very hard to look past the oh-by-the-way-let's-add-a-boot look of the 4-door, which does come in manual.

 

Anybody know if there's any intention to bring in a 5-door, 1.6 manual ? After all, with all the talk about how great a handler the Focus really is, why bring in only the auto-hatch ?

 

Kinda sad, if you ask me......

[Oinkened]

Yo mag,

 

Just wondering, r u particular about ur car plate number? Did u bid for urs or retain ur no.

[Magfocus]

No lah only me

 

So i can drive it in peace!

Since getting my Focus about two weeks back, the car has been great. However, I can't help noticing that each time after I parked my car, I heard a "tic tic" sound (quite soft), something like metal sound coming from below the car. Anyone got any idea what's that ??

[Magfocus]

Oh believe me its a gripe of mine as well, i have also really wanted a manual hatch, but Noooo, they had to bring in the hatch in auto form!

 

But anyway the look of the sedan is growing on me, seems pretty nice in the new colours and some nice wheels

 

And no, they are NOT going to bring in the manual hatch, believe me again as i have asked.

 

Have a good day my frnd

[Magfocus]

Hey Qinkened,

 

no, i didnt retain my prev car nos as it wasnt nice to begin with! Dont really bother and am not particular about numbers. As long as i have the car

[Magfocus]

Think its just the oil dripping on to the oil pan?? Pretty normal sound if you ask me

[Turbobrick]

That sounds like the cat contracting from cooling. My brick has that sound too, so does many cars.

[Magfocus]

I have asked a mechanic previously and he told me that its the oil that is dripping to the bottom of the oil pan that causes this "metal" sound. Not too sure actually, but alot of cars seem to be this way
