    Windscreen washer pump

    It was -25c outside couple of weeks ago and because of that washer fluid froze. Now when the fluid is not frozen anymore, windscreen washer doesn't still work. There is no sound or anything. Wipers work fine though. I ordered new pump because that probably broke because of ice...

    Heater fan broken?

    My Puma started to do this weird sound today and it changes according to the heater fan position. If the heater fan is turned off, it stops. Is it heater fan? Can it even be anything else? Fan also chirped at the winter. Here is a video I shot: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6N5RO6tHpdE New...

    Weird noise from engine, maybe aux belt tensioner?

    My Puma started to do this weird noise the day before yesterday. The noise sounds kinda like whining/whirring/even rattling maybe? It comes from the left part of the engine, somewhere around the area where the belts are. Noise gets louder with the revs and quietens when revs decrease and it...

    Engine feels stalling when releasing clutch

    I have problem with my Puma and the clutch/gas pedal. If I try to leave from standing still like I'd do with any other car, it feels like the engine is not getting enough gas and it sounds like it'll stall. Also revs drop too low. This can be fixed by pressing gas pedal more than you normally...

    Weird noise, gearbox broken?

    My Puma started to keep weird noise about 500km (300 miles) ago. It is kinda rattle like and/or crunching sound which can be best heard when you are driving 20-30km/h (~15mph). If you listen carefully and know what to listen, you can also hear it in 50-100km/h (30-60mph). Usually you have to...

    Focus Gearbox

    Is it possible to install 1.6 Focus IB5 gearbox to 1.7 Puma? How it would affect to car's acceleration and fuel economy? Is the Focus gearbox strong enough for Puma? I have a chance of getting one free instead of buying Puma gearbox with several hundred euros so it is quite tempting choice.

    Warning beep: open door + headlights on

    Where is the little speaker located which gives this beep? It is quite annoying and loud and I'd like to change it to something more quiet, like in Mondeo MK3. Is it even possible to change it?

    Rubber things under the boot

    Does anyone of you know what these things are called and from where I could get one? The one on the right side is lost and I would like to get a replacement. I know she is quite dirty but she will be washed, polished and waxed when the weather gets better.

    Weird diesel like sound on idle

    My Puma has this weird, almost diesel like sound on idle. About 60-70% times I start it, it sounds a little like a diesel engine. If I rev the engine, you can't detect the sound anymore, but I think this is just due to a risen engine noise. After I have driven couple of kilometres and the engine...

    Adding extra airbag

    I don't know if this is the right section for this, but I'll ask this here anyway. I have 1999 1.7 Puma and it has only one airbag, which obviously is driver's. There are some rare models with two airbags, but I haven't seen one in Finland. There aren't even leather seated ones here, only the...

    Jii's Puma

    I've been reading everyone elses storys about their Puma's and I thought that I'd show you my Puma :) I bought my Puma about 4 and half months ago and it was driven 190 000 km (about 118 000 miles). It is 1998 model with 1.7 engine. Car was in quite good condition, eventhough it is driven quite...
