2006 Fiesta Zetec S slowing down quickly Sign In
2006 Ford Fiesta Zetec S, 1.6, 90,000miles

I've recently noticed that in my 06 Zetec S it slows down very quickly if i put the clutch down and is more gradual if i take my foot off the accelerator, its not all the time but its happened a fair few times recently. When moving off on a flat surface with no brakes applied the front right makes a noise almost as if its locked on briefly then it releases. I park it on a hill and when i first bought the car it would roll if i let it now it stops on the hill with no brakes applied. MOT is due soon and know this will be a problem. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

After driving for a few miles are any of the wheels getting exceptionally hot?

Then you have an issue with the brakes on that wheel and you need to get it inspected to see what is causing it.
