I have asked on the Ford forum as well, but what are the difference between the TDi and the TDCi diesel engines as fitted to the Focus. Is one so much better than other and in what respect? Thank you.

Thanks for info, my budget is around 3k so it will be an early TDCi of 2002/3. Any issues with the first ones to look for?

Excellent to hear of another 'pro' point of view, thank you. This has given me quite a bit to think about. Who said buying a car is easy? smile

Are the injectors a pricey item ?

And there was me thinking a diesel lump would just rumble on, thought it was to good to be true! I'm at early stages of the car replacement and still open minded enough to have a change of heart if I hear to many disadvantages. Of course every engine can have problems but I hope to choose the least (on avaerages)likely type of engine to give inherent problems.
