Where is rust likely to be?
Rear arches, and under sill. This is a VERY common problem for Fiesta.
Area around the petrol cap is also a major problem for Mk3, which is why the
Mk3.5 has got flip open petrol cap.
Also check under passenger side footwell carpet. Sometimes water got trapped in and causes havoc.
My clutch pedal sometimes goes all the way down and won’t come back until I pull it up!
Clutch ratchet (quadrant) is on the way out. It is not particular a very hard job to replace, but it is very very fiddly. So set aside a few hours…
My car doesnt idle properly, or is running rough
Most likely you need to clean to Idle Speed Control Valve (ISCV), which is under the inlet manifold. Over time it gets very dirty and needs to be soaked in carb cleaner. If the car runs fine after cleaning, but the symptom returns after a few days, it is likely that the ISCV is knackered.
Or it might be the MAF sensor.
Heater fan, radiator fan, and boot switch dont always work?
Replace the green relay in your fuse box.
This is a very serious problem and the relay should be replaced as soon as possible if there is any problem found.
The indicators wont cancel themselves!
The indicator switches on the steering column multi-functional switch are faulty.
A replacement steering column stalk assembly can be bought at scarp yards for around 5 to 10 pounds
if your fiesta has a sun roof this does cause rust to come out
Yes, and no. Basically the drains for the sunroofs drain into the sills, so if your sunroof sill is dead then you might be letting alot of water into the sills, causing it too rust from the inside out!
