Ford Diesel technology must be lagging behind all their competitors. The Ford Focus 1.8 TDCi has to be one of the most unreliable cars I have ever driven. Starting problems, especially in winter, is very common with this vehicle. The Internet is filled with complaints from owners regarding inability to start when cold. Changed to date have been heater plugs twice, crankshaft sensor, mass flow sensor, injectors stripped and overhauled, battery, starter motor etc. Ford patrols are fantastic but having owned two Ford diesels I will never buy one again. The cost of ownership far outweighs any benefits from fuel economy.
