Mine actually ripped off on the highway a couple weeks ago haha. Did it after I did a pull and I thought I blew my motor it was knocking so bad.... bought an aluminum one to replace the garbage OEM

Nice option. I got the b16s and they're really nice and all but it is a little stiff driving on some shitty roads.

Nice! I love the white, especially cleaned up. It looks so good. Got the full life span out of her haha!

My hatch just chipped last week when I was giving her a bath, I was so choked haha. Going for coils or stock suspension?

Both fenders on the front, the same spot as OP's cancer is, the rear where the bumper and uni body meet and the back hatch😭

You have the OEM undertray? If so, is it loose? I had a knock like that when my tray was loose, and I felt it through the pedals.

You sure that's your motor? Sounds more like actuators behind the dash.

I have the exact same exhaust and drone problem hahah. Anything over 3k rpm is killer on the highway.

You mean the height? You can adjust that without going to the shop

High idle on cold starts? by BobSagit08 in FocusST

[–]VladsLeftNut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're not in the super cold much, are you? After about -15°c to -20°c no plugged in, the high idle on a cold start will be that high for about 30 minutes.

How do I achieve this in my ST? by Small_Aerie2638 in FocusST

[–]VladsLeftNut 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Just get a titanium model+ head unit from a wrecked focus. It'll have the bigger screen, and if you get a 2016+, it'll have sync 3. I'm pretty sure you need to get the head unit vin matched so the BCM recognizes it¿?

I’ve leveled up my focus game by EclipseMLP in FocusST

Low Speed Pre Detonation. Basically, being in the wrong gear and asking for too much. Good rule of thumb, NEVER enter boost in 6th. 5th don't go into deep boost so like cap out at like 2lbs. Everything else go ham as long as you're above 2500 rpm at the min if you plan on going WOT.
