Howdy Peeps,
Ive managed to get a hold of the European Owner Manuals for all Fiesta Models (WP/WQ , WS). These seem to have more information than the Australian ones. Hopefully these will able to assist the Fez Community. WP/WQ - Linky WS - Linky

Hey guys, I was just scanning through the posted manuals and it states that min fuel requirement is 95RON. Is this the minimum for our Aussie cars too? I completely overlooked that fact and didn't realise until now. Any input from current WS Fiesta owners?

Cheers thanks for that. Was thinking that if it needs a min of 95RON, then might as well get the ECU remapped to suit 98RON and squeeze a little bit more power of out it with a K&N or BMC air filter and maybe an exhaust system.

I think I read somewhere it would also take E10. Has anyone tried this?

A few owners of the WS have said they have had problems using anything below 95 RON (locally and OS).
I realize the manual says otherwise. I have always run 98 in it and will continue to do so - the difference in cost is minimal in my opinion. |

Just wanted to bump this, as a few WS owners seem to be missing lots of info in their manuals.

Thanks Mista Fiesta, that is fantastic.
I thought the owner's manual was a bit substandard. Now I understand why. It's for the local market (and perhaps NZ) only. In my opinion it is dangerously substandard in one respect and I do hope Ford are monitoring this and take heed. There is no explanation in the manual about what is meant by "Double Locking". I've never encountered it before, but looked it up on the internet. I'm wierd - most owners won't do this. On page 30 of the Euro manual it warns, "Do not activate double locking when persons or animals are inside the vehicle. You [they] will not be able to unlock the doors from the inside if you have double locked them." It is not hard to imagine the potential litigation if young kids are trapped in an overheating car and can't open the doors. And to RON: Quote:
