Hi all!
First post here (and Ford owner). Excited to be on the forums.
I’ve bought a used FORD FOCUS AMBIENTE (Manual) 4 Door Hatch PETROL 1.6 litre, Direct Inj {92KW}, 194kms on the closk
It drove extremely well (did 20km test drive) and I love its’ style.
However, the power steering no longer works- error says “Power steer assist failure”. From bit of research- it seems pretty common...
I’ve done a bit of car work before, but I’m happy buy the part (second hand) & pay to have it installed by a mechanic as i presume it’s too arduous/requires special tools?
The previous owner tells me it needs the “Electric steering rack” (or according to his mechanic/brother...)
I’m really struggling to identify which exact part I need.
Any mechanics to recommend in Sydney or Coffs Harbour?
Can anyone help me identify which part to buy?
Anything to be aware of- eg is buying a spare a bad idea as it may too fail?
My new joy:
