I have one round here somewhere too

 

nope, i re-registered my car for another year at my mom's address in indiana.. so i don't need to deal with emissions right at this point..

i am actually exploring returning it to (as close as i can get to) stock and selling it... 22mpg combined is killing me... can't keep doing $300 a month for gas... it looks like i can get a 2012 focus se/sel hatchback with about 30k miles on it for about the same value that my car is worth.

 

Here are a couple of videos that you can hear the same grinding as I have.

 

I cannot find my stock box. It's somewhere in a cardboard box under an 8' mountain of crap in a 10'x30' storage unit.

 

beat the **** out of that car untill the trans lets loose. Reverse floats from 20mph forward right into reverse. Just trash it then take it in for a new one under warranty

 

Wow Darrell that is not normal. Not only do you need to get rid of that car you need to find a new dealer for sure. I drive 2 Focus every week. My 2012 and the company has a 2013. Both with the same auto trans and I have never heard that. No wonder your pissed.
On a different note my Stang has killed it 5th battery. This only after 1 year again. This time it is a Die Hard Gold. I don't think it is the battery it is the car some how. **** thing won't take a charge on 70% and then my battey charger flashes "bad" I think I am going to look at put a battery shut off switch on the fender or something.

 

It's hard to believe after looking at your garage pictures that you have anything out of place.

 

Haha

The older parts pre-2010 got put into storage along with a bunch of kids toys, tools, and a Ping pong table and I've never wanted to mess up my garage by getting it back out again. However I'm about to build a 14'x18' well house that I can store stuff in and get everything at my house and organized.

 

Want to sell the ping pong table? I will give you $150 for it delivered to Cleveland. Lol....

 

Pm me your addy and excatly everything you need and I'll try and get it this weekend.

 

found the air box, filter, and air tube, while cleaning up in the garage. Let me know if you still want it. I'll make a good deal for you. I'll box it up and shipped to you for free.

 

What am I missing here? I want to get the GT 500 front brembo braking system. They say it will only fit some 18" rims. They give an example of what ford rims will fit. The Ford rim has a 7.2" back spacing and 45 mm offset. The rims I got are the exact same size (backspacing and offset) but wider 9" vs. 10". but they say mine won't fit. I even have a .25" wheel spacer but I would hate to spend that money and find out it won't fit. What to do???

 

Backspacing and width really have nothing to do with the spoke themselves. Some spikes could be thicker or flatter and less curved and not arch around the caliper if you will.

There should be some sort of printable template you can use to compare with your wheel to see if the caliper will fit.

 

Hola peeps. Hows everyone doing these fine days?

 

Yo Dirk,
Just dragging stuff in from outside getting ready for winter. Freezing my butt off.
