Can you say "DPFE" (Differential Pressure Feedback EGR) sensor.
Your symptoms sound like the classic DPFE failure. Miy '01 did the same thing, but for 3-4 of days, before the CEL came on.
I know for earlier Foci, the DPFE warranty was extended for an additional 2 years / 40,000 km under program 02M01. If you received a letter about this from Ford, be sure to take it along with you to the stealership. Even if your out of warranty, bitch and complain about the fact this part was faulty from day one, and maybe they'll do something for you.
