Used to change my own oil, became difficult to do in Italy and Germany with their rules and getting the proper oil and filters and disposal. Itās a 6 speed, but I definitely slack on verifying work others do.
Hey everyone,
Iāve got a 2016 GT that has some leakage, pics below. The car has had a rough lifeā¦ built and shipped to Italy where I drove her HARD, then to Germany where I drove her even harder.
The first oil change ever done on the car was at an Italian Ford dealership and the kicker was...
Guys have any advice on how to safely preload suspension bolts with the weight of the vehicle on the suspension with only jack stands, or would it be better to take it to a shop with a lift and have them do that part?
Been slowly installing the steeda ultimate stop the hop kit over the past week.... been a real PITA.
Started with learning I had a missing subframe bolt, the one behind it was also halfway out. Had to wait 3 days to get new bolts in.
Got the toe links in today, and one of the rear vertical...
Original owner, done all the work myself outside of alignments.
Went to Ford this morning for a replacement bolt and they couldn't find it... they found one for the 18+ but they're different bolts. Might have to look at that KellTec thing unless anyone has a diagram for the rear subframe or...
So there I was, installing the subframe alignment kit and bushing kit... and I go to remove the driver side sub frame bolts and... that can't be right--the front bolt isn't there. I have no idea how long it's been missing but it's worrisome. I haven't touched those bolts before this so idk what...

Installing headers on this car was a HUGE pain in the ass... wasn't expecting it to be such a tight fit. I custom made some wrenches with a torch to get them to fit.
I'll be ordering the right parts tonight and hopefully they come soon... I have the full IRS stop the hop kit that I need to...
Yeah I looked at that today and itās probably the same. Just realized I accidentally ordered steeda vertical links instead of the tension arms so I guess Iāll get two new parts lol.
FWIW, 56K miles, driven like a bat outta hell overseas cruising average 100-120 mph with common stints of 140-170 š
Steeda Min Drop Springs and Non-Adj. Pro Action all around. My friend and I installed it, didn't have any issues with the install or notice anything that might cause an issue.
Is it expected for new springs/shocks all around to be pretty noisy? Have about 150-200 miles on them as of now, didnāt really notice until I flipped the rear seats down to make some room for the trunk.

Anyone have any recommendations on single black exhaust tips for a 3" inlet muffler? All the corsa ones have their own special size and I haven't been able to find anything that will fit the XForce system.
