wardour st Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 Hi folks i have a ford focus witch has started cutting out, first the speedo drops to nought then the engine cuts out, it usually happens on short runs anything from two to four times then it seems ok ,any ideas what this could be ?. thanks.

convert Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 Sounds like a faulty vehicle speed sensor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moosey Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 Mine did that - was something to do with the airflow I think. Didn't cost a lot to fix though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon smith Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 mass air flow sensor. try cleaning it. heard its a common problem. or you could need a new coil pack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terminator Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 Make sure theres no splits in any of the pipes could be anything really sensors etc if all fails get a diagnostic on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dumpling Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 coil pack as it is not firing on all 4 hence it cutting out and running rough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katy1981 Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 my car was doing this not long ago and i had a look under the bonnet and heard a hissing and found a pipe that had a split in it, didnt cost much to fix and worked fine after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
