Q: Does the 2011 Ford Focus tell you the MPG your getting?
On some model’s of vehicles, there may be a screen that tell’s you the MPG your getting, does the 2011 Ford Focus come with this AT ALL? Even if you config it?
A: That info is in your owners manual. Read it………………..md
Q: How much does a 2010/2011 Ford Focus RS cost overseas?
I want to find out where can the Ford Focus RS be bought for the cheapest price because in SA we pay R479000 which is 43341.10 pounds and $68673.87.
A: There won’t be an RS version available in the states until 2013
and if it cost anything like 68K, they won’t sell a single car
(cause we have the option of real sports cars here,lol)

Q: K and N 2010 CAI for 2011 ford focus?
Greetings, I have a 2011 ford Focus ses and I will try to make this email short and to the point
I recently researched the air box and MFA sensor difference between the 2010 focus and 2011 focus.
Since the same air box and MFA were used on both vehicles, I decided to buy an 2010 ford focus K & N CAI since the 2011 was not available.
The CAI works fine, however, at times there is a throttle lag which become dangerous if you are in the middle of an intersection and floor it, noticing you are not going anywhere for a while. By the time the car moves, you could have been hit by a car.
Therefore and since I cannot get a refund for the CAI, will this SCT Performance Chip tuner work on the 2011 ford focus and will this tuner solve the throttle lag problem?
In fact, why is the throttle lag happing, I do not undestand since it is the same air box, engine and MFA. In addition, there is no engine light.
Thanks,
let me emphasize that I am not out to convert my car into a race car, I simply wanted to add a CAI to further improve the gas mileage which it did. I went from 29 MPG to 37 MPG on the HWY. Since I cannot get a refund on the CAI I need a solution. Based on the throttle lag, will a performance chip solve this problem? Otherwise, the CAI goes on ebay.
A: save your money, do not waste it on plastic sewerpipe with an air filter stuck to it, these do not perform as advertised, in fact, they test them at wide open throttle. Do you plan to run around town at wide open throttle? I suggest you contact your local trusted mechanic, and ask him what he thinks, and while you are at it, ask him about performance chips or power chips, as this is the next many people do when throwing perfectly good money down the toilet. These products, do not live up to their billing, it is advertising and B S at its worst, If you want an extra pile of horses, use a turbo, a gm is now voiding warranties after a rash of transmission failures with chips, and keep this in mind, that little engine is already working hard, and the more power and the harder you make it work, the sooner it will blow up, Originally in about 92 those chips started to surface for mostly diesels, and even now, you can put a 4 or 5 stage chip on a diesel, and get some killer horsepower. But since 92 to present, vehicles that use chips, have been having some catastrophic failures often enough to warrant a second thought about using one. and the best thing to do, is check with your mechanic, because reality dictates, that if any of this crap worked, it would be on your car when you bought it. (and your car already has a cold air intake)
Q: Anyone Know the release date for the 2011 Ford Focus?
I already know its coming out in the early months of 2011 in the UK and US. Anyone know the month? Wanting to get one is all.
this model http://www.ford.co.uk/AboutFord/News/VehicleNews/NewEstateModel
A: The UK already has the new style focus, and the US will get it in the 2012 model year. The US 2011 Focus is out now and is the same as the 2010 (and 2009), it’s the old body car.
EDIT – the UK has this car already, and as the other poster indicated the 2012 Focus will be in the US in the spring. If you are wondering about that station wagon or “estate” body style in the US – not coming, at least not at first.
Q: I just bought a 2011 Ford focus, and it broke?
Why the hell?
Had it for 3 months, then it was burning one day, so I took it to a repair store, and they said they couldn’t fix it. My Toyota camry doesn’t do this, and its 4 years old!
A: return it
Q: 2011 Ford Focus Manual VS Automatic brakes?
My boyfriend and I recently purchased 2011 ford focuses, mine being Manual and his being Automatic. He doesnt know how to drive manual so he doesnt understand the difference between our two cars but my brakes are not nearly as good as his!! I drove his car yesterday and they are so sensitive if you tap them the car comes to a halt immediately. My car does NOT do that, I mean my brakes are fairly good but im concerned my car may be defective or something and Ive only had it for about a month so id really like to know why theres such a huge difference between our cars
BRAKES
Type Power-assisted front disk, rear drum brakes with four wheel, 4-channel anti-lock
braking system (ABS)
Front 10.83-inch vented disc
Rear 8.0-inch dru
A: His may have POWERED Brakes, and you may have just Standard brakes…
Q: 2011 Ford Focus or 2011 Ford Fiesta?
I’m getting ready to buy a new car in the next couple of days. I read alot of good things about the Ford Fiesta and went to the dealership to test drive and buy it. However, once there, the dealer informed me of the huge rebates available on the Focus right now. Basically I can get either car for about $14,500. Which would you get if you could get either for the same price?
A: I’ve driven both cars and fully enjoyed them both.
They are both well built, reliable, well appointed, safe and fun.
It all boils down to your own personal preferences and needs.
Personally , I would choose the Focus over the Fiesta simply because the huge incentives make it a better deal at the moment.
The reason for the incentives is that the newly designed Focus will be coming out soon, and then .. nobody will want the leftover ‘old’ design.
I’m not that vain and would rather have the “deal” now, than the latest design.
But that’s just my nature. I don’t judge peeps for wanting the latest in design and technology either. I’m just more frugal than them, but that doesn’t make them ‘bad’… just different than me.
A good deal is whichever vehicle you personally like more than the other.
Enjoy your new Ford!
Q: Reviews on the 2011 Ford Focus?
Any personal opinions, or sites with reviews of them would be great.

Q: SE Ford Focus 2011.. yes or no?
i might be leasing a focus 2011 soon. is it a nice car to get? whats good and whats bad about it? and where does it fit in the chart of like ’sweet cars’
i know its no camaro… but i dont know much about cars.. so please tell me everything you can thanks!
A: It’s basic transportation more or less. If I were you I’d hold for 2012 Focus, we’re finally getting the euro-spec Focus in the states, it’s considered to be a far superior vehicle when compared to the outdated 2000-2011 model.
Q: How to add an amp into a Ford Focus 2011′?
Ok, so I bought a new focus, and it has only 4 speakers, however, I want to up this a bit and add two 10’s and a 12 in the trunk.
I have the speakers and a 400W amp, and they will all run the speakers fine without blowing them.
I am going to have the power wire run from the + side of the battery to the amp. And then I am going to have the remote wire run to the amp as well. Then I will ground the amp to the frame/chassis.
My question is this, I wont have to worry about the amp draining the battery because it will be connected via a remote wire from the stereo.
However I would like to be able to turn the amp and bass off when I want in case I get a call or something or am listening to something with no bass.
Instead of having to manually turn the bass down through the radio, I want to install a kill/toggle/on-off switch to it.
As far as I have read, this can be done fairly easy.
From what I understand, there are three cables going to the amp. The amp cable from the battery. The remote cable from the stereo. And the ground cable from anywhere.
Now If I wanted to attach a switch, I would do so on the remote cable right?
My understanding is that even though there is a power cable attached from the battery, it shouldnt drain it unless the remote cable is turned on…
Am I making sense? I plan on doing this all myself, and there are so many ways to hook things up that it is hard to find a decent walkthrough.
A: Correct, when the ignition is turned on, the remote wire goes hot, while the ground and positive wire are always hot, but the path between them is open till the remote wire goes hot and closes the path, turning the amp on.
Placing a switch of some sort in line on the remote wire would just prevent the amp from going hot. Unless of course the amp can also go hot from line level power, I know some amps don’t require a remote because they can go hot from RCA input.
Q: Trim on a Ford Focus?
I am looking to buy either a 2010 or 2011 Ford Focus. There are different types of trim, S, SE, SEL, ect…. I know the higher it goes the more pricey they are. what do those mean?
A: SE= Special Edition……SEL= Special Edition Luxury…….SES= Sports European Edition.

Q: Ford Focus or Chevy Cobalt ?
hey guys , i got my license like 3 weeks ago and ive been looking at chevy cobalts recently . And i like them .
However ive been hearing reviews about bad brakes . And that’s scary . But i also was looking at ford focuses . My dad wants me to get a two door car though . Do you think the people talking about bad brakes were because of bad driving or what ? I live like 30 mins from Houston closer to the gulf of Mexico .So its very very hot down here . I like to go to the beach and the beach i go to , we usually have to park our cars on the sand . But in winter it can get cold but not too cold to where it snows .
I want something reliable , very good gas mileage , good brakes , good tires , something safe , & a sunroof
so should i get a 2008-2011 Ford Focus coupe or 2007-2010 Chevy Cobalt
thanks 
A: If you want something reliable, you have to buy a Honda or Toyota. Honda Civic coupe should fit your needs. Honda is known for outstanding reliability and fuel economy. I had a Ford Focus for 3 months, I took it for regular maintenance still it just broke down one day and didn’t work for 2 hours. My mom has a 2000 Honda Civic, it never had a problem. Never. Also my dad works for Ford and the environment is very relaxed. On most days, my dad doesn’t have any work to do. That’s how Ford and Chevy is, they are relaxed and they lack quality. Toyota and Honda are both very strict and their workers never get a second off which translated to outstanding quality. You’ll get the most out of your money with a Honda or Toyota.

Q: how much would be a good down payment for a $16,000 ford fiesta?
I am planning on trading in my 01 ford focus for a 2011 ford fiesta that is around 16050 and I was just wondering what a good down payment would be…??? Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks = )
A: the more you put down the less you will finance saving you lots of interest. I would put at least 20%
Q: Aftermarket Sirius to 2011 Focus?
Just came home with a new stripped-down Ford Focus S yesterday. I had planned to throw my old portable Sirius Starmate receiver in there, pass audio through the Aux Input jack, and use my old magnet mount antenna.
But it looks like there might be a Sirius antenna already installed on the roof. If so, where is the plug end of the antenna cable? Might as well use Fords antena rather than risk scratched paint with the mag mount.
And, as an after thought, Is there a way to pipe my audio into the factory radio so it will play when I press the Sirius button? It would be extra cool to keep the Aux Input free for my Ipod.
Thanks guys!
A: The Antenna connector is in the area behind the factory installed radio. As to piping the Sirius through your factory, beats me
