You Have a Ford Fiesta Mk4 1.4L with a seized engine due to no oil. How Can it be fixed with low price without a full engine rebuilt too?

engine rebuilds can be costly more than a fiesta mk4 may be worth!

you may be better going to you local scrap yard/breakers and buying a used engine. some yards may even remove yours and replace it with a good one for a minimal cost.

They will keep your alternator, power steering pump etc, just replace the main block.

Either way its going to cost possibly more than the cars worth!

How to repair broken seat latch fiesta?

The cable mechanism consists of two separate bowden cables ( rather like bike brake cables) connected to one nipple at the seat latch end. It's best to remove the seat back from it's base to avoid frustration. Remove seat from car, detach any plastic trims at bottom of back. Be careful not to damage seat tensioner mechanism which can be triggered unless car battery disconnected first, then wait 2 minutes before removing the plug under the seat, press plastic release latch on plug to separate. Seat back angle knob levers off with a couple of screwdrivers. Remove 2 size 50 Torx bolts to separate seat back from base. Seat cover can be released by pulling plastic hook strips apart, not too difficult and gives more space to work on release latches at base of seat back.

Latch handle at top of seat is separate from cable unit. Cable unit has a plastic end which locks into hole in seat interior by 90 degree twist. The visible seat latch handle clips onto this using a plastic latch which can be seen from outer edge of the seat if handle is prised away from the upholstery (remove one long screw on passenger side handle) Press this latch inwards to release the handle from the cable unit. I broke mine not knowing how they were attached ...it cost £18 to replace doh.... Disconnect cable ends from seat latch before attempting to remove handle else cables will hold handle in place. Use a bit of string on old cables to pull new ones into place feeding down from top of seat. Fit new handle to cable before re-attaching cable ends to seat latches, there is not much slack in cable. Note routing of old cables before replacing new ones. Also note how cable ends fit onto latch mechanism.

Repair shops charge £70 upwards for this job which is probably justified by it's fiddly nature. It's not too difficult once you have figured out how all the plastic trims fit together. NOTone of Fords better designs.......

How does a heater valve work in a Ford Fiesta?

the heather control valve in in the engine bay. It has 2 hoses going into it, 2 hoses going out and into the heater matrix. When you turn your heater on you will need the Heater control valve to get hot air. If your HCV is faulty you will not get any hot air from your fans (inside the car)

This is common item in a fiesta to go and replacing it is a piece of cake! even if your new to mechanics...

also if your fan speed only works on '4' (highest speed) it means your resistor Is gone (another common fault) Resister is secured by 1 screw, its under the passengers dash, and has 1 cable going into it. Its about the size of a 'sushi'
