2007 Focus LS Zetec - Engine Systems Fault
|
|
Hi all,
Hoping somebody can assist in diagnosing an issue I'm having with my car.
As the title suggests, I have a 2007 Focus LS Zetec and I've been getting this 'Acceleration Reduced - Engine Systems Fault' message. It's not always, and generally ONLY when the engine is cold.
For a while it was totally fine until I had a passenger in the front seat, and zing! Engine Systems Fault! Which is immensely weird as the car doesn't have any kind of seat electronics... From what I can gather it doesn't even bitch if someone is sitting there without a seatbelt on.
Anyway, once the error hits, often I find myself driving until the car is at running temp, then either pulling over or waiting until I'm stopped at some lights to turn the car off and start it up again - then it's fine. Sometimes also if it's cold I can start it around 3-6 times and it will come good.
I don't suppose anyone has any suggestions or can point me in the right direction?
