With the advent of cold weather, many owners of the second-generation Ford Focus complain about slow heating up of the cabin and cold radiator. Certainly, if it is -35 ˚C, it is one thing. But when at normal winter temperature of 10-15 degrees of frost the cabin is heated up to half an hour, it is time to check the cooling system, and it is worth it. Thermostat, heater radiator, control electronics, air lock – all of these can easily become the cause of the cold in the cabin.
