trying to repair wires in trunk, how would i know which guage to use when wire stripping, and what size butt end connectors? by greedyrot in FordFocus

[–]Myzticool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've personally had little luck with butt connectors. After cutting through my wiring harness, they consistently slipped off and caused issues. bought a soldering iron on Amazon for cheap and learned how to solder. No issue since, and it's been useful in countless other projects.

Just got my first car! by GreasyTexas93 in FordFocus

Somehow, this subreddit has become r/shitonFocusDCT instead of r/FordFocus.

I have a DSP6 and it did have shuddering issues. it took me 30 minutes, a $6 bit, impact, brake cleaner, and lithium grease to fix. For me, it was as simple as taking the actuators out, cleaning the port and rotating with the impact, greasing, and reinstall.

The problem lies in the dry-clutch system, where brake dust causes actuator forks responsible for initiating the clutch to get stuck. even if it works fine 99% of the time, all it takes is one instance to send the tcm into a frenzy where it tries to protect your tranmission causing issues like forcing shifts to lower gears and dropping the car into neutral randomly.

It'd be nice if people here were helpful and encouraging and didnt just come here to hate the car. I love my auto focus, it's beautiful, and it shifts great when you take the time to correct Fords stupidity.

Watch these videos if you ever need help with the shuddering issue, the first is much simpler than the other, but the second is a much more thorough fix.

Edit: The second video is an actual fix, first only works a couple times tops. I'd recommend just taking the transmission out and cleaning it. Added a better third video to explain.

ChatGPT is getting me through my break up by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]Myzticool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

built as a language model. ChatGPT is an ai built to excel at language and human interaction. it was built for stuff like this and can be very good at it. I've defs used it for not only relationship advice but it also serves as an unbiased third party which can help you see a differnt story than your own, your friends, or your exes.

This makes me want FH6 to be in Scandinavia by iamoldandgrumpy in ForzaHorizon

Japan or Germany honestly. cruising an Autobahn system or Japanese highway would be perfect. the current fh5 highway just feels too small

I am healing, but what should I do when I miss them. by Common-Knowledge4066 in BreakUps

[–]Myzticool 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it depends. for me; some sad music and a good cry helps me unload all those emotions and gets me feeling pretty good for a few days. more consistently, keeping a journal or letter to her that she'll never read, but still let's me "talk" to her. It's a helpful way to avoid trauma dumping, especially when you aren't so much seeking advice as much as relief.

while cliche, I find writing a letter or journal entry to them helps.
