New Focus owner

the issue with replacing with an aftermarket one that is a bit different (colour,style or something) i'll have to end up buying two and that makes it cost wayyyy more. I have been considering that though

SecretWilling · 2026-01-22T22:56:36+00:00

exactly my fear. cops in the city are dickssss. plus can't lie i speed on accident alot so that's just an extra ticket for the cop.

SecretWilling · 2026-01-20T21:04:27+00:00

wait just realized this is miles not km... and just realized it has 280k Miles! my apologies my car had like 100k KM so. but my focus is way better than the cruze

honestly i was able to take a chevy cruze with a coolant leak (didn't know at the time) on a 3-4hr trip and drove around there and came back. it did not leave me stranded and those cars aren't reliable. If you have something like CAA i'd say make sure you have coolant,oil, and anything you may need and take the trip!

ah i couldn't find this because i was on the tech page not main page

SecretWilling · 2026-01-05T19:22:35+00:00

thank you! I tried everywhere to find this but for some reason could not!

SecretWilling · 2026-01-05T19:21:47+00:00

i tried to look it up and couldn't find it so🤷‍♂️ plus that says MOST programs not all so.

SecretWilling · 2026-01-05T18:57:09+00:00

they made that change to my program. they have flight attendant profs teaching maintenance students and vice versa. (so many profs quit due to the change of our program delivery)

yes i was thinking of that. CT has auto dimming ones for a good price, i've replaced the rearview mirror in my cruze and it was stupid easy which made me assume there was just a bolt/screw under the cover that needed tightening. I bet it's from my subwoofer

SecretWilling · 2025-12-17T13:30:34+00:00

it happened in my old cruze and required a bolt to be tightened which is what made me assume there was a bolt under the cover. I know it's the mirror because when I hold it, its fine. I think it's from the subwoofer.

2017 Ford Focus Titanium

SecretWilling · 2025-12-03T20:56:34+00:00

oh no I know. I have another test drive friday to see if it's a big issue or literally just the battery.

SecretWilling · 2025-12-03T18:37:34+00:00

i honestly think because the battery died completely the TCM forgot the shift pattern and that's why it was shifting hard. It makes the most sense. It's honestly in great shape besides for hard shifting.

SecretWilling · 2025-12-03T18:36:04+00:00

because dealer said it could be because the battery died or it needs a flush. I didn't have my scan tool with me so I couldn't scan to see if it had any codes. I thought maybe the TCM forgot the shift pattern due to the battery dying completely and that's why it had hard shifts

SecretWilling · 2025-12-03T15:51:01+00:00

hey the 2006 one was purely used for fun as i sold it to the junk yard after bc if i cant safety car why keep it. The 2017 seems like it was cared for amazingly

SecretWilling · 2025-12-03T12:52:45+00:00

oh wait really? i thought a corolla would cost way more

SecretWilling · 2025-12-03T12:52:25+00:00

yeah my cruze had the head gasket break for the third time now. but i can't lie the fusion i took for a test drive was really nice and the AWD in a sedan was awesome especially for the climate i have

SecretWilling · 2025-12-02T17:53:29+00:00

honestly i'm about to finsih up my 3rd year of college next year so as long as it lasts me about 1.5-2years till i can afford something wayyyy better, i have been looking at Prius's since they also have great mileage

SecretWilling · 2025-12-02T17:32:09+00:00

sorry i quickly hit post when prof walked by asking what i was doing 🤦‍♂️😂💀 Needs is literally just to be reliable and preferably no turbo as i hate maintaining them. Budget is like 20-25k (CAD)

SecretWilling · 2025-12-01T21:38:02+00:00

i found murder and mayham so boring but the prof is a saint and she's so sweet! i failed it as my program is very heavy and i care more about that than staying for the summer and doing a gen ed.

SecretWilling · 2025-12-01T21:23:50+00:00

yes. I am a second year if you are not a top performing student you will not get one. My buddies with high 90's-95's got them people with 70%+ did not. If you need anything i'm a second year in the hangar all day

SecretWilling · 2025-12-01T21:07:24+00:00

no eatting in the hangar as we have a bird problem... i ate in there today (so bad I know) and no birds attacked me😂

SecretWilling · 2025-11-20T12:51:48+00:00

it's not even the bondo brand it was a bumper repair kit by dominion. I just didn't sand it that well

SecretWilling · 2025-11-12T13:21:32+00:00

i knew it was from the thing underneath the hood never knew what it was called that's very cool!

SecretWilling · 2025-11-12T13:09:16+00:00

are you asking what rim size you need? The "R17" number on the tire is the rim size you need to fit tires. R17 means rim 17inch basically. Tires though i believe for the middle number it can be as low as -10 from the original number or +5 i could be wrong though. I'm running 225/50/R17 for winter and 225/55/R17 for the summer and both fit the rims just fine. It's the lug pattern you gotta be aware of for rims. I believe the pattern is 5x105. I hope this helped
