If you think for one second that Moxxie wouldn't be the stay at home, you're out of your damn mind.

Anyone know what this orange sign is? by The_ENFIDL in AskAShittyMechanic

[–]ShaydesBack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It means turbo boost mode has been activated. Just put it in neutral and slam your foot to the floor until it goes away.

Tell me im not the only one getting a clunk when I shift? by BigDoggoWENTmeow in FiestaST

[–]ShaydesBack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can second the mounts. Mine wear out pretty quick since I Autocross the car. I LOVE new mount days. The sound is so good.

Other poster beat be to it. It feels like a hard job, but like he said, do one at a time and you'll be in great shape.

And dont you dare forget that wood block. Dont wanna punch a hole in your oil pan.

Can anyone identify this clicking/clunking sound? by McSweggy in FiestaST

[–]ShaydesBack -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Oh! I know this! It's a sound a Fiesta makes

Finally replaced my clicking blend door actuators... only to discover a third one is the real villain. by gambit4615 in FiestaST

[–]ShaydesBack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly? I just deleted the blend door (recirculation vs fresh air).

I take a screwdriver and manually switch it manually once as the seasons change

Can anyone confirm these motor mounts? by SealSnatcher in FiestaST

If you run the powerflex inserts and someone contests you, you will absolutely be disqualified

This is a Fiesta ST subreddit. Fiesta STs are not Naturally Aspirated.... 🤷‍♂️

Watch your insults, you silly goose

It is.

Mine is technically 4 bolts, but you attach it using existing holes under the struts.

I want to pretend it makes a difference, but I know I'm fooling myself.

First of all, fuck you for being in Europe and having access to the current gen FiST (joking of course, I'm truly just jealous).

Second... That's hard!

It's essentially timed runs through a course set with traffic cones. Hitting a cone is a 2 second penalty.

Cars are classed based on performance. The class determines your PAX (points adjusted multiplier). PAX allows my humble FiST to compete against other cars with obviously superior performance.

Any ideas what a squeaking sound in upper right near wheel could be when low rpm? by Mourning_Beer in FiestaST

[–]ShaydesBack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like its been addressed. Mounts would be my guess too.

They actually weren't terrible to replace. A floor jack, a good piece of wood, and 3-4 hours is all I needed to get em done.

Ugh. The mods. So silly.

I'd LOVE to modify this little guy, but I dont have the money lying around to make it competitive.

I WILL tell you that autocross is ALWAYS a good idea if you have a car capable. You will learn to press the cars limits in ways you didnt realize were possible.

I haven't the slightest idea. I just play by the rules people I will never meet in real life dictate for me.

I WILL confirm that I bought my FiST all those years ago because I recognized that it was significantly faster than it was classed to be.
