  1. Hi All Can anyone tell me whether the 2003 chrome radiator grille(part no.. 1326840) will fit on the 2001 2.3 auto zetec?
  2. Hi Davec I am looking for the grab handles for my 2001 galaxy 2.3 16V do you have part numbers for the rear set as these have manual windows so not electric
  3. Sorry should have said that my 6006E is the CD/Radio that was fitted in my galaxy 2001
  4. Hi All Well I know it had some sort of value on EBAY but I highly recommend smashing one of these to pieces with a large lump hammer if it has been giving you as much trouble as my 6006E has given me Question I would like to change to a single CD 6000 will this fit the connections like for like,if not is there a model that will? Kind Regards David
  5. Thanks Chromedome, difficult this time of the year I now have 4 inches of snow outside!
  6. Hi all sorry if this is a dumb question but....I am trying to work out if my A/C system is working or not.Unfortunately it is -2.0 outside and I am not sure if A/C systems have a temperature switch. I have just purchased this car so need to know of any problems now so I can get them fixed/paid for under warranty. The a/c light comes on on all 4 fan settings but i am not hearing anything happening in the engine nor do the revs drop slightly as I would have expected as the compressor kicks in. Does this mean it is not working or is it just the outside temperature that is preventing the compressor from cutting in.If it is the outside temperature how do I check it is working as by the time the weather warms up it will be too late Kind Regards David

  8. Just bought Galaxy Zetec 2.3 auto 2001 but driving it home the automatic gearbox really started to play up on the motorway. I had given it a thorough test drive but not under the conditions that I was putting it through on the way home.Cruising at 70mph I thought I would see how much it had in her when I floored the accelerator to see what sort of kick down acceleration I could achieve.The car made the right noises but nothing happened except the revs went up but no acceleration what so ever.The car then seemed to slow as if power had been lost down to about 55/60 as if there was some kind of speed limiter to prevent any damage.The car gradually crept up to 70 but the kick down had no effect other than increased revs and a loud noise.After about 15 minutes of this everything did start to work again and car accelerated OK but not as well as expected. I did try using the tiptronic gears but again lots of noise no acceleration just high revs Car has done 115000 but reconditioned engine fitted 3500 miles ago.I have 3 young children so am now very worried that we may need to use the power to get out of trouble after all that is why I bought it, and it will let us down. Any advice would be really appreciated
