I'm looking at a 2010 se 5 speed with 20K miles. I took it for a test drive and it felt great, except at idle every once in a while the rpms would dip just slightly (to about 550 or 600). I was wondering if this was common amongst 2010s or if I should have it looked at before purchasing. As well are there any other common problems with foci of the year that I should be on the look out for?

Thanks for all the great responses. Knowing all of this is going to save me a lot of worries after I put some miles on it (after I get it of course).

Yea, I have right around 33k on my manual '09 and the only problem I had was the clutch return spring braking around 3k miles. But other than that this gen is a trooper, no serious problems to report. Especially if it's been babied by an older woman that only drove it to church on sundays... (Sorry couldn't help myself) ^_^
Grats on the find

I'm kinda new to FF and I saw this and am having the same problem but only with my CAI. I'm trying to save up for an fswerks but not there yet. Any idea why it would drop in idle and stall with my intake I have now? It doesn't do it with the stock air box. I'm confused.. Stupid electric throttle body!
