Re: Oil Life!

It's been like that for a few weeks. It happened last year and then came back with the recommended service date. Compared to 3 years ago the app is very poor.

I'm not familiar with the area...how many miles is that?
174 miles for the outward journey and we've just returned home at lunchtime. I suspect the return journey mpg will be similar.

Latest mpg figures

From Peterlee to Bretby near Burton-upon-Trent. Mostly motorway/dual carriageway and all the way in normal mode. Lots of roadworks on the M1. They are building emergency laybys where there is no hard shoulder. Despite all that managed to achieve 51.51 mpg. Going home tomorrow so let's see what the r...

Had a good look to see if the catch is visible when th bonnet is closed. Nothing, from any angle.

Re: ST differences

As far as I know the standard range has the puma cat image on the dash and also projected by the puddle lights where fitted. It makes sense to have individual details that separate the ST from the rest of the range such as ST on the screens, steering wheel, puddle lights, and yes the mats too. From...

Re: Seat height lever broken

The glove box handle is difficult to open and th the handle sometimes needs to be pushed back when closing. I've had the whole box replaced and it's no different. Cheap and nasty, poor design.

Thanks. Weather permitting I'll try and figure it out this weekend.

Re: New Here - New Puma!

Like I said before body rust is the killer. I would be looking to cure that first. Surface rust is only part of the problem with 80's Ford's. I loved my Orion. 30 plus mpg, didn't use oil and always started first time.

Re: Fuse advice

I believe 12 is the heated steering wheel and headlamp control module and 13 is voice control and info and entertainment display. I'm pretty sure I can't use the heated steering wheel without the ignition being on, but I can use sync 3 without the ignition if that helps? Thanks for that. Looks like...

Fuse advice

Can anyone confirm that both fuse 12 and 13 in the under dash fuse box in my 2021 Puma Vignale are ignition controlled. I'm piggy backing fuse 2 for something else so need another ignition controlled supply for my new dash cam. I would appreciate some advice. I'm posting this again in the hope that ...
