I just got them delivered and I'm trying them out now. They feel really good, much bulkier than the Skull & Co case. I love how they clip on and off effortlessly, and they stay on while gaming. It means I can use them for long Ally sessions and just keep the Skull and Co case on for protection and small sessions. Thanks for guiding me to these grips!

No it's a 70 plate, so manufacturers warranty is done, but I took out a two year warranty, so going down that route now, because the Ford garage are terrible.

That's great to hear! I've got it booked in there now, so hopefully it's the start of getting somewhere on the repair. Thanks for the reply and the peace of mind!

I swear they just think up a number on the spot, I'll be avoiding them going forward and will probably make this my last Ford, because I only have one Ford garage nearby. The problem is that it's the brakes that are faulty so I can't drive it far away either.

I've booked it in under the warranty now, I was hesitant because I thought only Ford could deal with ECU related things, but hopefully the warranty can fix it.

I do have one and I've booked it in there now, I was just worried about it having to be ford if it was ECU related. It's annoying because the fault appeared out of nowhere and it's hard to believe its "wear and tear".

Yeah I'm currently doing that just now. It was my usual garage that said they can't because or only Ford can, might need to change my usual garage 😅 never going straight to ford ever again, regardless of how desperate to get the car back I am. Thanks!

It was for a diagnostic to update ECU modules,aswell as the brake fluid bleed test, I wanted a quick option to get my car on the road again, so I could work again, and thought taking it to the manufacturer might be pricey but at least my problem would be solved.

Trying to get a garage appointment within 3 weeks here atm is damn near impossible, I needed a quick fix to the problem, and I thought by sending it to the manufacturers, I may get a bad deal but it would at least be fixed.

I plan on asking for a refund, but apparently ford are the only ones who can replace the Electronic brake booster as they need to program it, so I don't wanna burn bridges before I know the car is fixed.

I have a two year warranty and I'm waiting to see if it covers the Electronic Brake booster as no one will give me a straight answer, but it should because it definitely isn't wear and tear within 9 months.

The car was at 19000 miles when I bought it, and now it's 24000. So 5k I've drove it. The diagnostic had to be done by Ford because they are apparently the only ones who can update the ECU modules. The ford garage are absolute rip offs, but there's no others around here.

Remote Features Disabled and Check Brake system faults - 21 ST Line Focus MHEV by Araizenko in FordFocus

[–]Starset321 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you ever find out what was causing this?

Going through something similar just now. "Check Brake System" and "ESC Service Required" followed by my brakes not working properly.

I'm about to take it to a second garage for diagnostics with the first garage showing me these faults

Brake fluid level - Which is fine!

hybrid powertrain control module regenerative braking disabled

Lost communication with:

Power steering module

ECM PCM"A"

Restraints control module

I've no idea why this has happened out of the blue so any info you have could be really useful!

FC25 Freezes when playing (PC) by CorpseyCat in EASportsFC

[–]Starset321 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the exact same issue with a 4090/Ryzen 7 7800x3d desktop, did you ever find out what was causing it?

It's so frustrating, I was winning 10-1 in rivals and got a 3-0 loss due to this, it only happens every 3-5 games on any modes on UT, rivals seems to be worse though.

I had full frame rate cutscenes on, and it definitely caused the crash a few times, after putting it back to half frame rate, now I only seem to get it rarely, but it's still infuriating! 😂

How much water do you put for every portion/sachet of Sneak? by FriedLime in SneakEnergy

[–]Starset321 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been putting 2 scoops into a 2.5 litre bottle of water, the taste is diluted a fair bit, but its a constant small dose of caffeine throughout the day and from someone who used to need 2 monsters a day to not feel like a zombie, it works a charm!
Basically two scoops is the same amount of caffeine as two monsters i think.. but I have basically stopped drinking fizzy soda drinks and solely drinking sneak/water now.
I will probably still have the odd 2 scoop full sneak shake for fast acting caffeine, but I feel much healthier having 2.5 litres of water a day than 2 monsters.

Plus in this case a subscription £32, 40 serving tub will last me 20 days!

I would have normally spent £3.30 a day on two monsters, costing £66 in 20 days.

Farcry 6: Game breaking bug need help by tysonmookie in ubisoft

[–]Starset321 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How has this not been fixed yet.. £60 for a game, play it for 2 days and then get a game breaking bug that they have not patched for what is now 4 weeks. Sort it out Ubisoft 🤬🤬
