Question 1

How much does Ford Focus lane keeping camera calibration cost in Finchley?

Accepted Answer

At MnF Motors, Ford Focus windscreen camera calibration typically starts from £85–£130 depending on the generation (Mk3, Mk3.5 or Mk4) and whether static or dynamic calibration is required. We provide a firm quote before any work begins — no surprises.

Question 2

Does my Ford Focus really need camera calibration after a windscreen replacement?

Accepted Answer

Yes, absolutely. If your Focus is a 2014 or newer model fitted with Ford's Pre-Collision Assist, Lane-Keeping Aid or Traffic Sign Recognition, the forward-facing camera is bonded to the windscreen. When the glass is replaced, the camera's aim changes — even by a fraction of a degree. Without calibration, the ADAS systems either throw warning lights or, worse, operate on incorrect data, which is a safety risk.

Question 3

Can I drive my Ford Focus to MnF Motors from Finchley without calibration?

Accepted Answer

You can drive carefully, but you should deactivate lane-keeping and pre-collision assist via the MyMode settings before travelling. The systems may give false alerts or fail to respond correctly. Finchley to our Edmonton N18 workshop is roughly 7 miles — straightforward via the A406 or A10.

Question 4

How long does Ford Focus camera calibration take at MnF Motors?

Accepted Answer

Static calibration on a Ford Focus typically takes 60–90 minutes in our workshop. If your vehicle requires a dynamic road calibration (a live drive cycle at specific speeds), we allow 2 hours in total. Most Finchley customers drop the car in the morning and collect before lunch.

Question 5

Is Ford Focus camera calibration covered by warranty at MnF Motors?

Accepted Answer

Yes. All calibration work at MnF Motors is covered by our standard repair warranty. If a fault code returns or a system warning light re-illuminates related to our calibration work, we will investigate and re-calibrate at no extra charge.
