Default Re: What problems have you had with your Mondeo?

2011 MC TDCI (90,000klms)
- Windscreen wipers would intermittantly drop back a level (same sort of thing that happens when you stop). Ford replaced the stalk (with the usual 10 day wait).
- Lumbar support snapped and was replaced (with the usual 10 day wait).
- "Engine Malfunction" message and light have come on about 3 times in the last 6 months with no change in the performance of the car. Ford think this is the injector auto adjusting 'mapping', so have reset the mapping. Will see how this goes.
- Intermittantly running rough after coming to a stop from a highway run, with the 'gauge' jumping from about 1.1 L/H to 2.6 L/H. Ford suggested this is the system 'burning off' residues in some box in the exhaust system (I'm guessing it is similar to the catalytic converters in petrol engine cars).
- Goes through lowbeam globes quickly. I drive with my lights on and I've replaced 4 sets in the last two years - with Narva ones too!

I do really enjoy the 1,000 to 1,200 klms per tank I get as it means I'm only filling up every 9 days or so. I also agree with one of the above posters about how nice it is to drive, corners well and isn't too soft or hard in the suspension.
