1996 Ford Mondeo Ghia review from Poland
"I think it is a very well designed car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Hi everybody. I hope I got a good car. I just bought this car and I like it.
I have a little problem with the power over higher RPMs, and I saw the links how to fix it, but I saw the cable that is going to the intake valve is almost broke. Is there any part number or some other way to replace this with something else?
And I'd like to know if these engines have oil consumption problems, because mine is taking about 1 liter in 2000-3000 km. I know it is not normal, but I don`t know what should I do. Is it a big deal to fix it?
Thanks.
General comments?
The comfort is just super, and I just am just surprised that many things are still working; sunroof, all windows, alarm central locks, only I can't get the key fob to work.
