I live in houston area too. So AC is a must. replaced my evap in Summer 2020 and it has survived the year so far. I took it all apart and did it at home. LINK Used forum resources and some youtube.
The coolant, adding more did work for a while for me but eventually i had to replace it. Car has...
I use these too. I like the look and they been good for me here in texas. through the wet season and summers. Driver side does have some wear, but they held up.
I think the husky liners are good, but too 'truck' like in appearance. like in a truck or suv I'd run them but I wanted a slicker...
I got lucky on the dealer lot with my mustang. 23k drive out for a 2016 ecoboost base model with 7 miles on it. That was also thanks to a newspaper ad for black friday. I'd imagine the days of browsing newspaper ads for car deals are long over. No more one only, or few to choose from types. the...
I had a viofo A119 v2 in the car for a while. I then gave the dashcam to my dad. i use the A129 now so I can have front and rear camera. Hardwire kit too. It's straight forward as all cameras go. Picture is good, and viofo has fairly good following of users across the internet, so you can always...
someone needs to chill a bit. I had the AC issue but it's still my favorite car i've owned. plenty of cars sold in the American market are made in America with global parts despite who the company is, Kia, Hyundai, Toyota, etc. It's crappy that the evap went bad; from my understanding the...
I dont recall putting any PAG back in the system, I think there was still oil as the vacuum doesn't pull the oil. We did use some of that leak finder dye which was a PAG combo type from the auto store. I didn't add
You had a second one died?! Holy crap. Well if this motorcraft one dies on me...
it should come with them when you order the new evaporator. Well a motorcraft should have the gaskets. I can't recall if the 3rd parties will. Check RockAuto and CarID to see. None of this stuff will be local except for a ford dealership, and that's already $$$. Motorcraft came with the...
So my buddy has a cousin in Taiwan who owns TDMi Imports. Smaller car company based out of Taiwan, and known for suspension and chassis and seem to do custom brake kit builds.
Anyways, I bought some raffle tickets with my buddy to see if I could win a new brake kit, I ended up winning 2 lugnut...
I was able to do it with my Dad over the weekend a while back. Link
So far so good. Thanks for checking. Maybe if there is ever any work that I'm extra concern with or something beyond the realm of DIY, I could look into it.
So I have a 2016 Ecoboost base with an automatic. AC had been failing on me in these Texas summers, reddit, this forum and the other says what’s happening. A bill for $2300 is really crazy to replace the AC Evap, the dealership quoted that and they want to replace the whole climate control...
how is the metra kit? My cousin in car audio seems to point me to the metra over the scoshe. How's the AC controls?
Did you keep the sync connections? Looks nice.
I'm here in Texas. And for 2-3 years now, I been using the Viofo A119 v2.
It's been not hardwire, it's via plug right now. I haven't had any problems with it here, it's mounted under the 'ford' on the windshield. I park it outdoors, so mostly in the sun and summer. No issues and I would upgrade...
