Between the zip tie and sketchy double back tape, that is definitely not an OEM part.... Also factory wires in the engine bay are TESA taped and not bare like this.. Looks like it could be a GPS tracker or kill switch like others said.
Trace those wires and if it doesn't go to a harness, I'd...
I do method 1 and have for many years.
With method 2, you're not going to warm it up enough to evaporate the moisture in the engine, therefore creating more problems. Cold starting causes enough wear but doing so in the winter is even worse.... Also idling for 15 minutes is moronic and only...
Also goes for houses......if I can't write a check, then I can't afford it!
I would say a lot of them are. The majority of vehicles I see on the road today are very large pickup trucks and SUVs that are 40,000+. At least in my where I live....
Nope, always garaged and I have a low mileage Chevy Cruze daily driver for beating up in the winter. It's worth every penny to have a secondary vehicle for more reasons than just winter driving. Also, if you seen what the salt that we have does to cars, you wouldn't drive here either......it...
I've installed and uninstalled these more times than I can count.....each time, torqued to 150 ft lbs.
Has not failed or shown any signs of failure. No issues with these lug nuts.
Edit: Actually may need to replace them. The corners are rounding and get stuck in sockets as a result. Annoying...
I have always wanted one......was my dream car. However when the C8 was announced for under 60K, it no longer was. Cannot justify the price when the C8 will smack up the GT350R in every imaginable way.....including the track. Also that's where it fails.....for daily driving the gen 3 Coyote...
The Ford GT is going to get smoked by the C8...... I don't think Ford has it in them to make a competitor to this car.....at least not with the current management.
Same. First time driving it with the PP2 blew my mind with the difference....feels like a different car. Much better power delivery, sound and drivability than stock.
The extra torque down low was a shock to me and it really makes every day driving much easier than before. Accelerating is more...
Found one on eBay a few months ago and offered to buy it for $525. I used an 8% eBay coupon and got it to $483 with no tax and free shipping.
AutoNation Ford is excellent. I bought all of my suspension parts from them.
They're important..... Mine snapped the same way. Don't use the stupid factory bolts....too weak. Use the ones that came with your kit and it will torque to spec.
Use a left hand drill bit to get a pilot hole, then try an easy out. Mine came out solely with a left hand drill bit.
"Why does it not have 2018 model headlights?" - Because it doesn't fit well with the carbon composite radiator cooling system.
Don't lie, you know it's because the 2015-17 headlights look far better. :)
Yep, I also had no BBQ tick. Did my first oil change at 1,500 miles and IMMEDIATELY it started ticking after the oil change.
Couldn't care less at this point as it doesn't seem detrimental. At least it isn't a knock like the 2018+ Gen 3 engines have!
Yep, Power Pack 2 is definitely there. Don't go back to stock exhaust.....it is muffled garbage.
Also how does a 2017 only have 1,800 miles?? That's crazy.
Dang.....and you bought the dreaded gen 3, which so far has a much larger failure rate than the gen 2.
I would have switched to a Camaro after the second time...
Honestly, I would just drive it until it blows or trade it in (if it bothers you that bad).
The BBQ tick has been around since 2011, yet nobody has found out the reason for it...... This looks like it's going the same way.
