They probably weren't using an 8 year old battery though :D

Frozen locks again this morning, so need to get round to sorting this soon :lol What's the best way of getting access to the locks, I'm guessing the interior door panel will have to come off? It feels more like the mechanism in the door that's sticking rather than just the barrel.

I got one for our Maverick a few months ago and I think Eurocarparts were the cheapest. Stick your reg in on the website and it'll give you a price. They're currently offering 15% off if you order online too, there's a code on the homepage.

Same with ours after I cleaned it last weekend, it's like a different car now! Getting to the filter was a lot quicker than the first time I did it too :lol

We're having a bit of trouble with the door locks on our Maverick. The passenger one doesn't work with the key and the driver and rear doors are both fairly stiff when trying to turn them. I'm going to try getting some WD40/oil into them when I get a minute, but is there anything else that can...

I've added a few more photos http://www.flickr.com/photos/craigallan/sets/72157629219024975/detail/

Dug out the paperwork for it. 9 previous owners listed on the V5, but no service history. Just the MOTs certificates and garage invoices since we've had it. Thanks for the tips on the photos, I'll grab some more on Saturday. Don't think there are any obvious problems, I think it's had a...

I'll dig out the paperwork for it tomorrow, I think it's had 9 owners. Don't think there's much in the way of service history. Since we've had it I've done the basic stuff myself and it's had the fuel line and one of the front brake callipers replaced at MOTs. Bodywork is generally good (I'll...

Obviously the title should read Ford Maverick, not Terrano. It's been a long day :D

My other half has decided to replace her Terrano so i thought I'd stick a post up here as well as Gumtree. She's looking for about £1250, but is open to sensible offers. I was half tempted to get rid of my car and keep this, but two 4x4s probably isn't very practical. Then there'd be the...

I think you might be owed a turkey leg! I took it to work this morning and it seemed to be running ok again. I've just taken it for a quick blast up the A1 and if anything it seems to be running better than it did before the problem. I guess it must have been the mini filter and the drive I...

No scoop on the bonnet, thought it might be a bit old :lol

It didn't seem to have made a difference when I took it for a quick (slow) spin afterwards. I'll try the tip with the clear pipes if I can pick some up with the filter tomorrow.

It is a square headlight model (L reg). IIRC the fuel lines were replaced with flexible ones at the last MOT earlier in the year, but I'll have a look tomorrow. I'll also try changing the filter and adding some injector cleaner and see if that makes a difference. Is there a guide to reading...

Hi. First post, although I've been browsing for a few months. My partner has a Maverick 2.7TD and it has been suffering a lack of power for a while, mainly at higher speeds (around the 50 mark). Today I went out in it and as soon as I put my foot down on the slip road to the dual carriageway...
