    Tremendous number! Lot's of maintenance too but are you still on the OEM PTU? . . .

    What are our Headlight Options in 2026?

    If you clear coat them that provides the UV protection. I never sand the nubs off. I just work around them. . . .

    Well let’s see those PTU nightmare pics

    Jordan_R you have a incredible car! What's your secret or your recommendations on why your PTU lasted with so much power? I know you did regular fluid changes for sure. My 2013 MKS ECO is stock at 120K miles and I am on the OEM PTU with zero problems. . . .

    Could anyone please help diagnose.

    A guess? But every DI car that I have seen pour white smoke out the tailpipe was caused by an injector problem. Surprised you don't have any miss fire codes? As you noticed the car is being flooded with gas and it's just pouring into the engine. I have a Jaguar that did this and after fixing...

    Well boys it’s all bad news bears

    Well it's like the old saying. You can't make a pig into a race car BUT you can make a really fast pig! Before doing all that I am surprised the race guys did not suggest cryo treating all the gears along with micro-polishing the gears? I would go a step at a time to see what happens. You may...

    2013 FCIM needed

    I also had the stuck on fan switch plus the temperature control would go full hot as soon as the car was started. I also found no new units and with the failure rate of these I did not want to take the chance on a used one. Ford lists this part as NLA. I think you going to have to send the...

    Help pls! Scary noise from the front left side.

    Hey a SHO in the EU! You must have a real unicorn! What's puzzling about your problem is the PTU fluid is always black and is in terrible condition when you change it. Even after just a few thousand miles? No mention of how much your pulling out and how much your putting in? The PTU only holds...

    Planned obsolesce or bad luck???

    The HVAC panel is a well know problem. The issue is that the panel is a "touch" sensitive panel NOT a push button panel! Over time as more and more people PUSH on the panel it starts cracking internally. Ours got the drivers side temperature control broken and when starting the car it went to...

    A/C blowing hot, clutch is engaged, plenty of pressure - blocked orifice?

    Great point about the shims and the clutch clearance BUT it was my experience that when the wear reaches the point of changing shims your better off replacing the compressor. The repair did work but a few months later the compressor gave up and had to be replaced. You don't randomly put shims...

    No fuel pressure, won't start, cooling fan always on
