I currently have a Mountune M400R package inside, and the mileage with this package is already about 50,000 km, with the whole car 76,000 km. I love this car.
K&N filter or any oil filter is really unnecessary(just sound nothing else) till bigger turbo upgrade, paper filter is just fine and won't let dust go into you engine. Mountune spark plug doesn't exist, they sell NGK(one step colder). Fantastic car btw, it will be a modern classic in this electrified/SUV era without hothatches.
Owned a 400+ BHP Focus RS myself. Never felt that quick due to the weight of the thing and literally started falling apart so got rid as soon as the warranty was up and currently have a GR Yaris which genuinely feels every bit as quick up to UK National speed limit. The RS engine did sound good though despite its well published faults and Ford build quality issues.
@@xIcarus227 new head gasket, / cylinder head replacement instructions were further revised as Ford didn’t replace oil feed pipe washers originally so loads then developed oil leaks afterwards or destroyed the turbo shortly afterwards as well. Headlight self levelling system prone to failing. Headlight switch prone to turning brittle and breaking. OBD port / coin storage flap prone to breaking. Recaro seat bolsters prone to excessive wear and tearing. PDC system erratic on some vehicles causing veering issues at speed. Exhaust flaps prone to seizing causing a limp mode. Just lots of niggly things really that show that it was built to a low budget. Suspect the high percentage of failures and total engine replacements were in part what killed off the RS brand. I did enjoy owning mine but fears of long term reliability once the measly 3 year warranty was up made me fall out of love with it and move on to the GR Yaris with its 10 year warranty including track use.
@@xIcarus227was that really just a batch? I thought they all had the head gasket issues…? I actually wanted to buy one for quite some time and this issue and how ford handled it really put me off. Had a few different cars and ended up with a GR Yaris as my daily as well. Can‘t complain. The Ford still looks and sounds quite nice though 👌
@@andrewbayram765 I think even Ford’s best legal team would have a tough denying warranty for broken bits of trim such as light switches and worn seat bolsters on a very lightly used car with less than 20k in 3 years
Still one of the best looking cars Ford has ever built and generally one of the coolest hatchbacks. But i still believe they should have kept the 5 cylinder. I hope Ford brings back the Focus RS.
I kinda want to know but I thought they just pipe a plastic tube towards the interior so you hear the sound more? Or am I wrong? I always wondered because it coming through the speakers would be so annoying? I also don't get how that would work. If you're blasting music what happens? it turns down your tunes for engine noise? always wondered if anyone can clear this up...
Ja dadurch das der RS ein permanentes allrad hat hat man ziemlich viel leistungs Verlust durch kardan Welle usw. Dazu kommt noch das man fair sagen muss das deutsche in getriebe Abstimmung weit aus effizienter agieren als andere siehe z. B. Das der neue rs3 einfach 300kmh schafft aber ein s3/ rs3 basiert meist auf ein haldex allrad was kein permantes allrad ist auch wenn dies immer so genannt wird bei diesen Fahrzeugen wird nur das heck zugeschalten wenn das Fahrzeug merkt das es Schlupf hat sprich sie sind meistens Front und dadurch leistungs effizient

@@nick6433 actually Haldex doesn't completely decouple the back end, something like 5% is always sent to the rear. I don't remember the exact explanation, it's something about residual losses. So Haldex still has drivetrain loss from spinning the rear axle like every other AWD system does. The reason it's more efficient than the Twinster in the Focus RS is because there's no rear LSD and overdrive gear, which together probably add something like 5-6% drivetrain loss. That's pretty significant.
I have a focus rs. The power falls off after 5k rpm. It shines on back roads. I live out in the countryside of Cali and let me tell you the amount of fun I’ve had. You gotta realize 420 crank is 370 wheel…. So yeah it’s not going to be impressive 😂

As a Ford Focus RS owner myself I enjoyed this video a lot 👌
Perfect car for me. Fast, Practical and relatively affordable.
I currently have a Mountune M400R package inside, and the mileage with this package is already about 50,000 km, with the whole car 76,000 km. I love this car.
likewise ..don`t think anything could touch it 😂
What a beautiful car. Any Ford lover's dream.
The Ford focus rs is a good option, I like that one
The most beautiful hot hatch imo.

this has the best launch control in any manual car i ever seen
Fast revving and with good power. Seems like a good car
it is best small family car . 😊 I love this one . Most people buy this . ❤ This car take long ride .
I miss my ford focus even though it breaks down sometimes but the drive feeling is indescribable
Hello from Namibia 🇳🇦
Hoping to drive the AutoBahn soon 😎
Nice RS
From brazil.
Sportski pozdrav za Milana!
5:49 most interesting turbo noise ever
From memory, it’s because the owner hasn’t fitted a sound suppression chamber, it’s a sound that gets pumped into the cabin.
@@Yakazuka oh interesting
They need to bring this to back US. My buddy has an RS such a hot hatch
No he doesn't.

Which faults would that be? Aside from the batch of cars that got the wrong head gasket fitted I'm not aware of the engine having any problems.

Warranty on a nodded RS????? Faults not possibly related to mods and abuse???

Amazing car! The stability when driving on the Autobahn is also excellent. This car is not a FORD, but a German car.🌍
Sadly not German build quality though. Mine went back to Ford 3 times in less than 3 years for various bits breaking on it under warranty
So cool car 😱😱
more ford focus rs mk3 please
I also like the rally look, but it should have one size smaller wheels with meatier sidewall tyres and get rid of the lowering springs.
Still one of the best looking cars Ford has ever built and generally one of the coolest hatchbacks. But i still believe they should have kept the 5 cylinder.
I hope Ford brings back the Focus RS.
Beautiful 🎉
Good car affordable sticks like glue and will hold its price so win win.
I want this car!!! My heart will be at peace...
Great daylie

Nice Subaru!!
Max would you do a review of the Autobahn? I'm from Australia and I'm curious why Holland has speed limits on the same piece of road.
Nice

Very go 👍🥇
Runs really well this one, stock power is not that impressive.

Miiint car that is
I don't recall seeing a Mk. 3 Focus ST video on here. Ever do one?
There is the estate version but not hatch
Please review a Ford Escort RS Cosworth.
Why A/C on all the time? :(
Weeeeee Max
I will never understand Ford in USA way they never have produced Mustang v6 EcoBoost like this RS or Explorer ST.
I thought flat foot shifting was only for first to second gear?
Okay seriously wheres the ZO6 review?😢
