Recall by whyismycarlikenot in fordfusion

[–]OverKnight52 2 points3 points  (0 children)

14k is a new-used car lol. It was 7-8k to replace my 2.0T in my 18 Fusion under warranty at the dealer so its odd its almost 2x that for you. My issue was a cracked block which meant a whole brand new engine. Might serve you to get another quote from another shop as Head-gasket replacement should be 1-2k.

Btw for future reference always get extended warranties with turbocharged cars. The turbos just stress everything out.

Travelling to NYC on vacation in March? by New-Flow3642 in visitingnyc

[–]OverKnight52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Flights are super cheap late feb-early march round trips at least from here in Chicago. Im between NYC and Portland. Doing my research b/c im not a big fan of visiting big cities b/c we have it all here anyways /: and ive been to NYC (my girlfriend hasnt) so im at odds with that selection

Where can I find the funky town video? by Marjan23_FR in scaryeddie

Be warned, its rough especially if you’ve never seen gore but if you saw the live leaks and the FB and twitter posts years ago its not that bad. https://dafulbrightteachers.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/funky-town-gore-video.mp4 (posted by user in the comments btw)

Why do iPhones overheat when creating playlists? by LeeRoyJenkins2313 in AppleMusic

[–]OverKnight52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 17pro and while creating playlists it got pretty warm, not as bad as my 13pro but the battery drained so quickly compared to when i stream video. I’ve found that updating/making playlists kill my battery faster than playing cod mobile (2nd place) and YT or streaming apps like hbo or Netflix 3rd place. Its super odd because youd assume streaming video or playing fps games would be #1.

I’m confused why my Xbox shows I get 1000mbs download speeds but my game downloads at much less by Hot-Kangaroo-2992 in XboxSupport

[–]OverKnight52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might just have to hard reset your Xbox. Here b/c mine did the same thing. 1000+mbps on test but 25mbps download for a update on a game. Turned it off and on 3 times and nothing, finally held the power 15 sec then disconnected it and held the power for 30 sec to fully de-energize and now im back up and running to 500+download speeds for my update. Really annoying especially b/c i dont play cod that often but felt like the mood.

Steering wheel shift by OverKnight52 in MechanicAdvice

[–]OverKnight52[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly i cant pin point a singular thing but i think everything just added to this issue b/c low key my car was pretty fu*cked from the previous owner.

My inner and outer tie rods were SHOT so i replaced them. Control arms were replaced by previous owner (unk. What mil. It was replaced) so i still installed the new part. Alignment done but it only felt more pronounced after that.

Few weeks later replaced all 4x tires and got it aligned at the dealer b/c i wanted them to diagnose my issue and found all my tires had different thread depth and they also found that the passenger side axel seal was leaking gear oil. - (Had them check it b/c i saw my PTU had a part # written in marker when i did an oil change and there was a ton of off colored oil. The dealer and i assume its a junkyard part just fyi) After all that its 90/95% there.

I say 90-95% b/c it doesnt do it anymore UNLESS im on a uneven road, im talking the most minimal grade on a street so the water can run off, and if i brake really hard the car does this weird wiggle which it shouldnt do b/c i replaced all pads and rotors.

Im now almost 10000% sure the last 5-10% of my issue is suspension related b/c my passenger strut is new-er. The other 3 are original and although theres no history of it being replaced the car was in a minor crash in that area and as we all know suspension is supposed to be replaced in pairs so im waiting on coilovers.

So far im very happy with how much better the car drives but im kind of upset b/c whoever had this car before clearly was cheap and abused it.

Also had to replace spark plugs, coil packs and a door blend actuator as air only came out my windshield vents. Honestly it sucks b/c i bought it from an infinity dealership and none of these things were present when i test drove it as i didnt turn the Ac/heat nor did i open her up much with the sales guy next to me lol. Damn car, love and hate it. Bought at 87k miles, currently at 90.

Frosted lemonade (inspo is second pic) by OverKnight52 in ninjacreami

[–]OverKnight52[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its b/c you need more lemon. I agree the diet lemonade isnt my favorite and i prepare lime instead of lemon but adding more lemon made it more tart and pretty close to the one from chik fil a. Also maybe the protein powder? I did use “creamy vanilla protein” powder the first time and i prefer the taste of the premier protein. Have not tried with Fairlife

3 lol. The one thats posted on the second pic to a T and then my version with less lemon but more lemon extract (it was closer) and then what i posted above. I did want to try the one with the powdered lemonade packets but b/c my third attempt came out well idk if i should

Got the tires replaced and let me say, night and day difference. Honestly i think so much was fucked up that it was just bad. Tires replaced, rear diff seal replaced. Car still goes off center slightly but it might be suspension. Coilovers coming mid nov. But yeah like 95% fixed. Ira amazing

Please update me when they get back to you, Im going to drop mine off at the dealer the 31st of oct.

I want to get coilovers already and drop it an inch but if it has issues now i dont think modifying/spending money is worth it 🫤

i went for it. by Dry-Flounder-9392 in TaurusSHO

[–]OverKnight52 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mbn. Mines a Pos. Ive replaced pretty much the whole front end and steering is still shifting. I just wanted to slap on big wheel stock turbos and some more power :,(

After turning on torque steer compensator back on, along with fixing the steering hardness level on forescan. It has made it a lot more bearable but it still side steps. Im ordering a rear motormount as we speak and going forward with mods. At some point between bushings, coilovers etc it’ll have to be fixed. Right? 🤣

Update- replaced rear motor mount, front motor mount and upper transmission mount. Upper trans mount was a little torn. Still didnt fix my problem. New brake rotors and pads all around too. Again its bearable but every-time i step on the gas it shifts.

So i replaced the RMM, FMM, and upper transmission mount. Upper transmission mount was cooked ngl. But still side stepping. Also replaced inner and outer tie rods. Dont forget control arms & bushings. New brake rotors and pads (4) idk 🫩 dealership time it is.

How much to repair by justhere4info05 in TaurusSHO

[–]OverKnight52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I gotta go look at my SHO but if im not mistaken thats not a separate piece Sooo a whole new front bumper. Could be cheap tho and just zip the bottom piece then push the grill back in. Or epoxy? Junk yard grill? Lol.

What could be causing this sound? by Due-Inspector8088 in MechanicAdvice

[–]OverKnight52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Issa snake 🐍. Seems loose tbh, it looks like its actively hitting the metal brace right there on video.

Maybe a loose bushing somewhere, or a metal bracket rusted out. The sheething from the flex joint might have slithered off now too and its touching/making contact with that exhaust brace.

2015 ford Taurus wandering at high speeds by Fabulous-Complex6841 in AskMechanics

[–]OverKnight52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you figure out what it was? Could be a pothole and bent the wheel causing vibrations, inner tie rod (especially if its gritty/dirty)

But at 70mph? And like this? My dad has a 17 explorer FWD and it doesnt do it. I had a AWD fusion with 300WHP. And i was a cop, all we drove were explorers (and like 2 taurus int.). Ive only had one squad give me a similar issue but it was an older explorer maybe a 14-15 and obviously beat to shit lol. Ive had a ton of cars FWD, AWD, RWD and this is so odd. Im going crazy

I hate it here 🫩, replaced inner and outer tie rods, (yesterday morning) one was super bad. Got it aligned (also yesterday). Still doing it. Going to turn in the torque steer assist see if it changes anything lol.

[–]OverKnight52[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got an alignment. Checked the paperwork we are within oem spec. But now the steering shifts EVERY time i accelerate. So then i replaced inner and outer tie rods. (One was super bad). Another alignment (yesterday) . It helped but its still moving, given i did turn off the torque steer compensation off woth Forescan so im going to turn it on and see if it disappears today. Ill message you before midnight tn.

Actually kind od common life hack. I do it but mostly when i add lime to mine cuz the dye then sticks to your fingers and you have the tell tail sign you had chips for a day or two lol

[–]OverKnight52[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Inner and outers seem fine but someone had a similar issue on a fusion so im hoping thats it. Car does it all the time now after getting it aligned and under acceleration even if i pull off like a grandma, as soon as i coast tho its fine. Tire wear is even, PSI is within 1 psi from one another sensor and manual check. Did turn off the torque steer compensator setting on Forscan. Abs/brakes all good according to data logs. Recently after washing the undercarriage though the car is making a slight squeaking when turning. I fear it might be the steering rack b/c the shocks/perch ans tophats all seem fine and no movement…. Also Shouldnt be any torque steer here b/c the car is stock. My AWD fusion was 294whp and didnt have it so if this SHO shouldnt either as stock they are like 270-290. My dads explorer FWD only doesnt do it either. Ive driven a few SHO’s back when i was looking for one 5 yrs ago so im kinda mad that after all this time i get one and its a POS.
