on the 15+ you no longer have to hold the brake and button simultaneously to disengage the nannies...you can do it rolling at 80 if ya want. just press and hold the button.
thats why i ended up going to the dealer...i figure they sell em, they should know how to fix em.
price was the same as the chain stores and at least the dealer is familiar with the car itself.
at the time i started doing mine the car had only been out a few months so a lot of...
ive used the dealership for mine 4 times, and once at a chain; pepboys. the chain totally screwed the pooch on it and refused to listen when i tried to explain that the car does have factory rear camber adjustment. even had the store manager argue with me over it.
the dealership is okay but...
its a modular unit, its gotta come out if anything behind it goes bad too...like AC evaporator core. only a couple bolts holding it in, seems like major surgery but its a simple task since its one large piece.
same exact problem with mine...given enough time, driver side will go to blowing warm and passenger side to cool...not even cold anymore.
took it to the dealer on monday, they gave me a loaner and called me wednesday to tell me it was the evaporator and parts are ordered. still waiting for...
just wanted to say thanks Niz55, you were spot on, the original shop not only forgot to install my bump stops and dust covers but the end links connecting to the sway bars were loose as well. that was the cause of my noise.
I took it to a different shop to get the replacement parts...
yea, thats my first check,but im near positive itll be the bumpstops...simply because there are none now with the noise and there wasnt any noise when they were present. but im also thinking top nut on the struts.
im more irritated then anything....pay a professional shop to do work and end up...
yea that was along my line of thinking too. however steeda sells some adjustable bumpstops and im think those will work.
the kick in the dick is this will be the 3rd time messing with the struts and 4th alignment.
I recently had some suspension mods installed by a local but reputable performance shop. however i now have a clunking type sound coming from the front end while driving.
it seems to be coming from the wheels and is suspension related for sure. the sounds actually sound like the front is...
just got:
Corsa 3inch extreme C/B with black tips to replace my Stainless works C/B
BMR CB005 cradle lockout
BMR TR005 toe rods
BMR TCA045 vertical links
BMR front n rear swaybars
gonna decide tomorrow on either steeda non adjustable shocks/struts or the Koni yellow or the FRPP trackpack...
my insurance company insisted all parts be OEM or OEM approved ( like roush ) or they refused to use them. i was actually waiting on factory parts that were back ordered and asked them to just put a used part on instead and they refused, and they opted to pay for my rental for another 20 days...
i just went thru this. my ins company required Ford OEM parts, new only, or Ford quality authorized parts. basically the roush and steeda, RTR offerings were fair game but more extreme custom stuff was not deemed up to standards and they wouldnt allow me to use them. for the parts i did swap...
