1.5 TDCI, Small oil loss before butterfly intake

This problem occurs in a 2018 Ford Fiesta with 1.5 TDCI engine.

Today, when checking my car, I noticed a small loss of oil. I don't know exactly why; if anyone has any idea...

The oil level is slightly above normal; I don't know if this may be related to the leak.

I bought the car recently, but the previous owner told me that he had done 15,000 km.

I don't know if this can be related; as I said, I would appreciate any help. Thank you all.

Driver Side Mount

I bit the bullet and bought a phone mount off Aliexpress. However, it’s designed for the passenger side air vent.

I live in Ireland and was wondering if anyone has a link for one that sits on the driver side?

TIA

Audio Panel Replacement

Hiya gang, first time posting here and I'm not the most car savvy so please go easy on me.

Back in Feb I brought myself my first car (a 2009 Ford Fiesta Mk7) everything has been pretty honky dory since then until a week ago where my audio panel has become unresponsive bar the hazards and locking buttons.

Me and my friend diagnosed the issue down to the circuit board immediately behind the buttons scorching in some fashion which is further evidenced when we unplugged the wires from the board giving of a rather burnt smell.

Anyways I've been looking for a replacement and I am totally lost and have encountered several issues:

The type 2 audio panel unit currently installed in my car (C1BT18K811BD) I can't seem to find an exact copy for.

Looking into ford parts codes apparently the model I have might be for the Mk7.5 which as far as I know shouldn't be compatible with the Mk7 electronics, which makes me wonder if the electrics had been upgraded by a previous owner to accommodate improved audio systems?

Another issue is that I can't find the exact model that I have already. I can only find ones that end in RA, PA or CA or start with AV1T.

All in all, I don't know know what I have, I don't know what I can put in and none of it really makes sense to me like I have a one of a kind vehicle.

Broken exhaust valve

The exhaust valve spring on my Milltek exhaust appears to have broken. I was wondering if anyone might know if a replacement part is available from Milltek or Ford, and perhaps if you have the relevant part numbers?

2018 mk7 not shifting gears to the side. Front back (3&4) work.

Hey everyone, can anyone help on potential root causes for our Ford fiesta VII 2018 1.1 Ti-VCT?

It only goes into 3rd and 4th gear (forward and backward), so when pressing clutch you cannot move the selector to the side and go into the other gears.
The video shows clearly the front to back moving easily but the side to side not.

What kind of work would be involved to fix this?
Thank you

New driver.

Hello everyone. I’m a new driver and for my first car I got a 1.2L fiesta. The biting point in the clutch seems high compared to the car I learnt in. I’m just wondering if the biting point is high in fiestas, if there is anything wrong with my car. Or I’m just being paranoid as a first time driver. Any advice?

TPMS sensor not detected

I've got a 2016 ecoboost. 110k miles and resigning to the fact it's coming to the point that expensive repairs arent worth it. I'm getting this TPMS fault, guessing it's a battery issue. Anyone know if its straightforward to DIY? Can I just ignore it if I keep on top of my tyre pressures anyway?

Mk2 1.4 fiesta (1988) not running om idle - possible carb or idle valve issue?

Hi everyone!

First time poster, so sorry if this is a bit of a mess!

I have a fiesta from 1988 (mk2 1.4, CVH) that runs very poorly on idle (the few times it actually runs). The car sputters and jumps, and I have to pump on the gas pedal constantly to keep it alive - the rpm are crazy low and then jump to very high only to drop back down again.

I have serviced the car and swapped all valve springs as two of them broke within a short time span. I have taken the carb (a Weber unit) off and ran air through it and there seems to be no blockage or debris in there. I have also removed the choke-unit as well as the idle valve-unit and all seem to be working to some degree at least. After refitting these parts, and before mounting the air filter-unit I tried starting the car and now I get short bursts of flames coming from the carburetor... So that's fantastic.

I know the engine is not the best on this model and that reno might be the best choice long term, but before that: does anyone know what could cause these issues and how I can try to fix it?

I am not great with cars, but have good help so I am definitelyup to the task of trying to work this out. I'm sorry for any potential misspellings or incorrect terminology (English is not my first language). I have also started looking for a new carb, just in case.

Thankful for any and all tips!

2012 Ford Fiesta, I have been trying to reset my oil change light but it won’t stay off. I do everything I am supposed to, fully depress the gas and break pedal for 30 seconds but I never get the reset message.
Can anyone think of something I am missing?

Reverse camera not coming on

2014 Fiesta titanium. Until a few days ago I had only a few random error messages over the years where it would say that the camera wasn't available. But for the last few days all of a sudden I don't even get that message, I go into reverse and it simply doesn't make any change.

Anybody had this happen and have any troubleshooting or repair suggestions? Am I doomed to pay a shop or just get used to life without the backup camera? Thanks!

What is happening

Two failed multipliers in a single month! Do you think it’s because of the cheap spark plugs I bought from Autodoc? I’ve now picked up genuine Ford iridium ones, along with a Ford coil and leads.

Fiesta 2011 mk7 1.25L Oil consumption

My car has 240k km, it’s literally drinking oil, like 1 quart/1500km.
There is no smoke , no visible leak.
Car responds well on hills, consumption usually happen when exceeding 100km/h speed and travelling for a long distance.
I was using 5w30 oil theb switched to 10w40 just in case it was because of the oil viscosity but problem still the same.
I tried to provide as much info as I could, if you need anything else tell me in the comments.
I would appreciate all the help I can get
