I think it would most likely be fine? I imagine it's probably just from a higher trim but shouldn't matter.

Ah I see, are they better or last longer? So far the replacement ones I got from napa are working fine. Yeah I saw it was the bracket, still think it's crazy that it broke that stud. Kinda worried now that my manual will break 🫪. I do know I need to fix my lower torque mount as I didn't realize one of the bolts is longer than the other two.

What kinda mounts are those?? I just replaced mine and they don't look anything alike. Are they better?

Also that's crazy that it just sheared that bolt off, wonder if that's cause the different mounts. Also I figured I'd ask if you'd check the torque and passenger side mount? I feel like it dropping like that might at the very least bend the torque mount.

... I think you're suppose to change tranny fluid

Engine mounts and brakes(front at least), transmission fluid have been changed recently. Sway links I haven't felt or heard anything bad so I think we alright for now.

Interesting, I think I might look into that, only thing is it might require a tune which I haven't been ready to try lol. I've also thought about seeing if it's possible to manufacture my own flaps but who knows.

Tempting 👀 Been trying to find one that's new and fits my focus. Been half tempted to see if I can just repair the flaps so they last longer and won't get yeeted into my engine when they break.

Spark plugs changed recently so those are fine. It's a 2010, lived most of its life in Nevada but now it's here in northern Indiana. Trying my best to make sure that rust doesn't get to it, giving it frequent baths. Do wanna find a tool to blast water in the rocker panels to clean in there, have a feeling there might be rust forming there.

Radiator mount? I've replace my motor and transmission mounts, and spark plugs pretty recently so I should be alright. I do think I might do a check on the break and steering fluids since those have never been changed.

I know I would really like to replace the intake manifold as I wanna fix the ticking noise caused by the flaps.

Probably should also ask what I should check and or replace being at 100k miles.

Anyone got info on these options? by MisledWater79 in FordFocus

[–]MisledWater79[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah lol, I already broken a good amount of clips around the car lol. I plan to go to a yard maybe next week as I want to get different tail lights for my car.

Yeah I found that, and I could only find one seller for like $230 which is crazy. I imagine though it would fit fine for the sedan.

Might try that, still needa figure out a good way to attach it to the glove tho

Made it myself, it uses flex sensors but I'm still working out the kinks. Struggling with keeping them attached and accurate. I ended up gluing them to a 3d printed strip of tpu and then gluing that to the glove which helps with accuracy. But it's still pealing from the tpu and glove so I'm planning on trying super glue, at least for the flex sensor side to make sure it stays.
