When did the clutch on my Ford Focus disintegrate?
Currently taking the case to arbitration. I have just had a similar experience on a Ford Focus Zetec 2013 1.0 litre eco boost bought new from a Ford main dealer in June 2013. The clutch disintegrated on the motorway in 6th gear causing a massive and dangerous loss of control. The car has done 12,000 miles.
What to do if your focus Zetec cut out?
The car is fixed by this valve! Hold the revs at 3000rpm, let go of the throttle and if it cut out it could be this fault as they are very common. Other things to look out for are TPS, MAF sensor, Vacuum leak (split pipe around back of engine) PCM upgrade… I won’t take any responsibility for anyone that tries this!!! Loading…
