Hello everyone,
I am an avid cyclist and for the past 8 years I have been sticking my bike in the trunk of the car (seats folded down) and that was worked out great!
However, I am planning on going on a vacation this summer with my girlfriend. She also rides bikes. He car does have a bike...
I personally stay in regular sport mode all year. Its far better than the regular drive mode. Sport+ is just too, I don't know- erratic?
I do like track mode, I feel like it gives me the RPMs I crave...but the downshifts suck.
Sadly my dog, or as I called him, my "puppy brother" passed away a few years ago. I never thought I would get another animal.
Then my girlfriend moved in... and now we have this guy. He waits by the door for me to come home. He always wants to be hanging out in the garage with me.
What is absolutely crazy is - I had the exact opposite problem of all of you talking about your 1-2, 2-3, 3-4 shifts. All of my clunky shifts were going down in the gears, 4-3, 3-2 or 3-1 etc.
After getting a tune (FP Tune) everything was corrected.
But things were really bad before the...
I had P008 and I was pretty sure it was related to the low pressure fuel sensor - not a turbo sensor.
I got a new LPFS and that cleared up all of my issues.
I assume a sim rig is for for sim racing...which I do not do.
But I do build custom PC's. I bought all the highest end parts (for the time) and my computers are still going strong. My first home built computer from 2010 has been demoted to being the garage computer. Cant play modern games -...
I have an ecoboost, but I have a similar looking leak. Its incredibly slow...I wouldn't worry about it unless there is large amounts of leakage with oil pooling. Also, it doesn't look too fresh..
I only use it to downshift a gear or two to keep my rpms up... it short shifts so much it bogs down the car.
Its pretty awful driving in full paddle shift mode.
Could be this.
I know that my 'normal' mode not only feels slow, but also draggy. Like my breaks are sticking on. I find that sport mode lets me get up to speed more easily (less throttle) and lets me get into a higher gear faster to coast in.
Yes that one. An APPROVED dealer has to do it if you want to keep your warranty. Some dealers are not approved and or unwilling to do it. But you could do it at home if you really wanted to - it would just void any warranty you have left (if any)
I had so many issues with my 10R80 I was about to get rid of this car. Took it in several times for very harsh downshifts and wonky shifting. The dealer replaced a few parts - but it made little to no difference.
But then, I got the Ford Performance tune - which not only gave a bump in power...
I also live in the St. Louis area - unaffected by the stroms. But ever since them big one - I too have been getting 15-30 calls everyday. But they are all robotic. I wish it was an actual person trying to scam me. Whenever I pick up - they don't make a noise and they hang up. I have well over...
Got a better look. I believe that it is the driver side motor mount leaking. I cant see anything from the top side - but from below, I can see oil weeping out of the unibody right below the mount. Picture attached
I have been battling an oil leak for about three weeks now. I cant seem to find where it is coming from. It primary does a few drops while the car is sitting overnight. 80% of the time they are on the drivers side and the other times its on the passenger side. I had just changed my oil right...
