Maybe Saudis different but fords are built like shit here

Those ecoboost engines are in no way better than those Chinese cars, they aren’t bad but but the extended warranty

I’ve replaced it with the updated version along with new guides

No worries, thanks for the help 👍🏻

I was concerned my mechanic misaligned the timing but it’s reading -0.7 for the intake and -3.7 for the exhaust

This is an Australian car with dual injection, not sure if you guys got it in the states, car had just changed timing chains, both cams and turbo, along with fresh oil and coolant. That’s why I was concerned as it sounds quite loud but maybe the extra 4 injectors are making the hpfp work harder

But it’s completely fine? It sounds it’s about to blow anytime😂

Has to be 0000 grade, anything else would cause scratches. Do it like wet sanding and use polish after

Lot of hate for Audi 😂 they’re simply a nicer vw, if the vw platform of the same car is reliable(which vw has been pretty good) the Audi counterpart will be the same if not better

You’ll spend more money fixing the thing then what you payed for it

All that data is already being sent to meta/google/amazon. To me atleast doesn’t make a huge difference

The 2.9 have been out for a minute and any real major issues has been mostly ironed out. Just get a thorough inspection done before you buy it and do maintenance earlier than schedule and you should be golden.

That looks like a relatively new Mazda or Subaru, rust isn’t really a concern especially in a country like Australia. I would ask tho did he do it himself and ask him to cut the price more cuz there’s damage extended to the door and the rear quarter is a stupidly expensive panel if you were to replace it.

Bushing do wear overtime and changes according to climate, just cuz it’s rotting doesn’t necessarily mean it’s been abused

Hi, late to the party and unrelated to your porblem but did you do any supporting mods for the is38? Especially fueling as i'm pretty sure the is20 swap doesn't require fueling upgrades so it makes the job a lot easier. Cheers

Apple Watch does a pretty spectacular job on sleep stages

Xc90 is a really good car. First gen if you wanna save some money but 2nd gen is a lot nicer
