At first, I don't know if this is the correct place to ask these, if not, my apologies
First issue:
-> My temp. gauge, when I turn off the car still displaying the temperature. If I come back after several hours, it still displaying the temperature it had when last turned off. If I turn on the car, the needle moves back to cold and then starts operating correctly.
Second issue:
-> door open warning light always on, with bonnet, doors, trunk closed... xD
Third issue:
-> My clutch is slipping. The car have supposedly 90k kms (=+/-56k miles) I'm wondering, the hydraulic brake fluid looks bad (I haven't opened the cap, but I suppose it is dark). And since if it is like my Fiesta MK6, the clutch uses the same fluid as the brakes, so, can this problem of clutch slipping due to bad fluid?
I give an example, if I go at 80mph and step suddenly on the throttle, the revs will rise first and only then the speed starts to catch up. Maybe bad fluid makes a lazy engagement? or is really shot clutch?
Fourth issue:
-> No HCV. Just checked, they bypassed it. So, I suppose the valve is broken. Also, the heater fan doesn't work in any position. So, no AC either because it isn't connected. Also looks like it doesn't make the switch from external airflow to internal airflow. Is all of this operated by the HCV?
