1994 Ford Escort Si review from UK and Ireland
"Comfortable, nippy car, loves it fuel but its a nightmare"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Got it and it started to run bad, replaced usual, oil, filters, sparks plugs, leads, temp coolant sensor etc etc etc and made the problem better, but still there.
Took it to ford, and they said nothing wrong with it.
As I put my foot on the accelerator, the car, when under load, feels like the brakes have been put on, it backs right off.
General comments?
The car feels good, comfortable, but suspension is creaking, squeaking everywhere, also when the steering wheel is turned, (CV JOINT) which is a popular thing to go. Car is a nightmare, but would be great if everything that went wrong wasn't expensive to repair!
