Mighty Car Mods 30 times?
Hey Moog you used a 15mm in the civic build video
i counted 39
Mighty Car Mods is the license plate for sale too? Or is that a hint at the next build?
Marty purposely starts popping the bubble wrap at 3:15
From 3:15 - 5:47 Marty pops the bubble warp 27 times
Moog twists the bubble warp (the hardest one due to echos) 7
Moog pops 2 just after getting into the car
Engine Rev 1 - 3 Pops
Engine Rev 2 - 5 Pops
Engine Rev 3 - 4 Pops
Marty's "One More"
This is a total of 49
Then, Marty popped 2 when removing the spring for the packaging at 3:13
and Marty popped one that is hard to hear and notice because it hardly makes a sound because is a bad bubble and time 4:33
Marty Popped a total of 31
Moog Popped a total of 21
Grand Total of 52 Pops!
Mcm fan base is weird 😂
This is like sitting through my math class
How much adderall are you on?
"Now draw a diagram based on the facts."
You did all that for a sticker really ?
*that intro got me in the feels for a second*
and then how was the ending 23:17
8:48 - 9:13 . Close your eyes and listen to the lovely imaginative conversation
Uhh, lots of strange thoughts coming to mind there. Lmfao
i was gonna comment that thiccy
DUAL intake air filter, got it. Took me a while to realize you weren't saying "jewel" intake air filter. I wondered what a jewel air filter was for a long time.
Josh Hayes well why and where the balls would you filter an air outlet on an engine?
Dual air filter seems pretty sensible given the application, unless he was souping up his Aircon.
I thought "Jewel" was the brand name
Josh Hayes hahahaha
Haha crazy aussie's
i thought "jewel" style intake meaning the open part that they emphasized on the top..
Marty popped 28 bubbles, Moogs "twist" added another 4, *totaling in 32*.
*Bonus* the exhaust brap added an additional 12 plus Marty's final "one more"
*Grand total: 45 bubbles popped*
Love you guys, please send swag
I counted 46 but you explained it all out, so I hope you win.
Cardas Nibker I hope everyone wins lol
But marty said how many times did I pop the bubble wrap. Wouldnt moogs not count then?
i counted 27 individual pops by marty. then a quadruple pop by moog. then a double, triple, double by moog, and 1 more by marty. so 39. some other things like the seatbelt buckle sounded like a pop the pops sound pretty deliberate so i didnt count things that only haflway sounded like a pop
You didn't count the ones when they're in the car.
You guys take the double entendres to a whole different level. They are literally "off the charts" and I really enjoy that. Thank you so much for entertaining us in this creative way whilst still maintaining your decorum and doing the work!
You used 15mm wrench or sockets on the LS swapped madmax s15. Chevy/Holden ls engines have a bunch of 15mm on them
Justin Wolcott contrasts man hope they hook you up
they built the madmax s15 in a different shop. cant really say they used marty's 15mm socket unless he brought tools with him.
6:44 "we actually have some credible experience building fast and subtle fords," 😂😂😂😂😂😂 I just about died when I saw the TRD Laser!
boarderboi7 lol same and the first thing I thought of was the song 😂
Dude, ME TOO
Scrolled down to see the comment hahahaha
"Is it in? I cant feel it"
"Just the tip is in"
"Screw it in harder"
"The shaft is going in now"
Lmfao y'all are awesome
Thanks, guys for the stationary camera shots. It made this video a real treat. I really love your channel and it’s great to watch your content without being completely distracted by nausea.
I hope this format continues so I can go back to streaming your stuff on my new big screen TV without having to turn it off after a couple of minutes for wanting to hurl. (I've had to skip your episodes when surfing YT on the TV and wait until firing up the laptop to watch you on minimum sized viewing.)
I have no doubt that setting up static shots takes more planning and prep than gonzo style, but that work really pays off in the finished episode. I noticed the difference right away and am genuinely grateful for your efforts. Thanks again, guys, for all you do and all you show.
You popped it 27 times before twisting it
And about 6 in the twist
So
33
runforitman wow I got the same
Marty asked how many times HE popped the bubble wrap so stick with the 27.
runforitman you forgot when they were sitting in the RS
Kalie Martin I commented again saying that’d make it 46
But I don’t think anyone saw
26, I've already won the contest. Thanks for playing
Binge watching MCM after finally getting internet back since hurricane maria in puerto rico. Ahhh..I missed this!
You used a 15mm socket on a video on the 1st of March 2018
If Ford Motor Company is FoMoCo, then would Honda Motor Company be HoMoCo? 🤔🤔🤔
Hoppit 😂😂😂😂
Most Honda parts do actually start with HM but I believe it stands for Honda Mechanics. Something from the olden days, as is FoMoCo. Even their muscle cars already had that.
Hoppit 😂😂😂😂😂
Adnoh
if NISMO is "Nissan Motorsports" then would Honda Motorsports be HOMO ?
I started watching MCM in high school, I am now in college pursuing a degree in automotive technology. Thank you so much to MCM for inspiring me to go after my dream!!! You guys are awesome
The bonnet release is on the correct side, but the steering wheel is on the wrong side.......
Greetings from Europe
Blatt Ferenc yeah, a lot of European brands put the bare minimum effort into moving the wheel over to the right hand side. See a lot of goofy things they do in the UK. :D
Blatt Ferenc Driving on left is driving on the right.
It can either be on the left, or the right side.
Only one of those is 'right' ;)
I'd rather have my strongest arm on the wheel not the shifter thanks :D
Slacks Meridian what if both your arms have the same strength tho?
18:13 *a larger turbochacha*
Torx fastenings were the bane of my life back in the 1990s, as so many cars I worked on used them, and at the time, it was really hard to find Torx bits in car shops in the UK; I soon discovered that Allen keys could be made to fit said fastenings...
Wish I had a lock up ;__; Changing springs and exhausts on a wet, freezing cold driveway in the miserable UK weather is the reason I procrastinate for so long before fitting parts I've ordered.
see if you have a diy garage in your area. i have one 30 miles away where you drive in and use all their tools and hoist and all for just a rental fee and replacement fee if anything breaks from misuse of course
How do you not install new aftermarket parts immediately?! So exciting
James Russel I’ve never heard of that, that’s a cool idea, I can see a lot of liabilities involved though lol. But I could see a lot of people using that
2 things I look for in a car
1. bong smoke
2. check engine light
You must drive Subarus
How tf are you gonna see "bong smoke"
never owned a vw then lol
I make sure all my cars smoke bongs and have a check engine light.
Slicktop 2jz he's saying it as if has looking at a car has interested in buying.. 2 things he looks for in a car... You can't look for "bong smoke".... what process do you even do when "looking for bong smoke" enlighten me.
I am glad to see a couple episodes of Marty and Moog customizing a Ford Focus RS and a big Ford Focus ST fan and I bought myself a 2005 Ford Focus ST back in 2020 it was a mess in the beginning I had to get a new clutch and transmission it was so trashed now it was runs awesome been going through the electrical and got my traction control back slowly replacing broken or missing parts on it , but wanting to get help on what would be good to do to modify my Focus ST and I always enjoy watching your show guys keep up the awesome work
STOKED to see more of this build. You guys have always been an inspiration to us making videos and although we're normally muscle car guys trying something new building a rare isuzu hopefully mighty mods style!
Moog u used a 15mm on the Honda Civic build
Kronik HD chop sticker 4 you
Technically Moog isn't Marty
Was it when they changed the seats?
Yh I think so can’t remember that well it was a while ago
Kronik HD I
@12:36. Love hearing that Track firing up. One of my favorites on the Big Music pack Moog put out. Best music money spent in a long time....MASSIVE TRACKS.
That ending is fantastic :D
great now they are going to have to fix the shop... dam aussie super jump hax
Exactly what I thought. Someone is getting fancy with their editing.
Wierd that the bonnet-popper is in the passenger side? No man its weird that Aussies put the steering wheel in the passenger side :-D
in Australia we think its weird that the usa put the driver on our "passenger side"
No shit right? Who's crazy idea was it to put the driver's seat on the passenger's side?
Ha! still love em tho
Take off your intercooler plate for 6 inches more intercooling. Because everyone wants 6 more inches.
My trunk reliese is in the glove box because its half assed and dint have a place to put it
Such good memories. Reminds me when I ordered new shocks for a track day but they didn’t make it in time. Went and did the track day and canceled the order for shocks I didn’t think were ever going to arrive. 3 months later they showed up all beat to hell but since the order was already returned I just kept them. I tried to contact the seller but they said the order was closed. I think at a point no one wants to pay shipping. Still got those shocks today.
Nice exit gentleman!😎
Waking up to some MCM... *todays gunna be a good day*
The only thing better is to wake up to a new video of Project Binky...but in that case you know it's gonna be a good year...since that's about how often they're updating...
just gunna send iiiitttt
It Was A Good Day - Ice Cube
The pod filter kit installed on my Audi A3 2.0T I'm sure didn't increase performance a bit but all the extra noise did make it more fun. Added bonus: the ridiculous engine cover with integrated air filter got to go in the bin.
8:48 Moog - "Can you nut on the top of it?" Marty - "Yea, i reckon I ...... what did you just... " LOL
Habeev07 can u push it harder cos I can't feel it
Habeev07 He nutted all over the top of it.
Totally awesome out of context for sure
8:42 - 9:25
That license plate…2SXYVGTR? GTR…?! Oh wow MCM2018 is gonna be epic!
Sunny Lam different one on the back though
It's the plate off of 2Sexy... there just to cover up the actual plate of the car ;)
Didn't cover it too well, the plate is clearly visible on the rear - DQN 94D 12:53
They're not trying to cover it up for their protection, they're just being the silly little cookies that they are
I am not 100% on this but if you look in the background at 17:20 There is what looks to be an RB engine. So maybe there is a GTR around that we havent been shown yet.
Marty “ I can’t feel it man”
Moog “the shafts going in now”
Marty: Popped a lot
Moog: Popped a lot more
I did science.
I deserve my sticker.
StickPeopleAndPuff quick maffs
give this man his sticker
Wow you samrtt
Let’s hope your car doesn’t have that dodgy head gasket, haha.
Nope ours is all good!
lol you will not no till it pops :) and it more there block
Spoiler alert!
It will.
The floating cylinder design was a head gasket nightmare on essentially every engine that I'm aware of.
.....all good so far....o.0
Ford is replacing them under a customer satisfaction thingy. Just bring it in and they'll do it for free.
when i first got my prelude, i got a cold air intake and deleted the intake resonator... the date display i had showed like 2 hp gains. wasnt happy with that so i got rid of the coolant lines that run to the throttle body and intake manifold along with making a air box that seals the filter away from any hot air, made an additional 5 hp along with the responsiveness and sound of the engine.
First Thing: Check the build date, then change the headgasket if necessary!!!
8:41 - 9:25 Classic MCM ;)
TheKenji412 I seriously love these moments haha
Yeah I closed my eyes, listened and laughed my *ss off
Crazy it wasn’t even that big of a suspension drop, but it really did make a difference. Looks great!
Marty!!! You popped the bubble wrap a total of 26 times!!!!
😂 can't believe I just did that for a chopped sticker
29 lol!
7:15 in Europe that's the driver side LOL
in america that's also the drivers side.. kek
Nebbia affaraccimiei except for us Brits!
But you're not a part of Europe anymore thanks to Brexit..
Please note the comment you just read was a joke, I in no way, shape, or form think the UK is now, magically, not part of the European continent. Thank you for your time.
For me its unusual that the steering wheel is at the right side. I only see it at mightycarmods!
Maytricks you won't believe how many euro RHD cars does not move the lever. It's just too much hassle!
I don't know why, but when Marty says "do you want to pop a bit" is the best part of the whole episode.
I'm sure you did this, but when you re-installed the bolt for the lower a-arm in the back, you shouldn't tighten that bolt all the way until the suspension is back on the ground. Otherwise you have pre-load on the bushing and it will cause it premature wear.
Assuming it's a metallastic bush. Poly, nylon, spherical doesn't matter.
this is a good point, you'd better hope they did this because it's one of the first things i've learned about doing suspension for customers.
Its a factory car using a bonded crush tube in a rubber bush.
The bonnet release on the passanger side is relatively new to European cars I live in Europe and had heaps of cars with them on the drivers side or " the correct side"
Cost cutting ;-)
ah, but in Europe the drivers side is the other side, so the same side as the bonnet release side because they drive on the other side. Unless you're in the UK and then it's the other side which is the same side as the wrong side that is the side for Australian driving.
why didn't they continue putting it with the driver whichever side of the car theyre on, I have no idea. Ford used to fit the bonnet release under the steering column (I'm in the UK so at least they did on European market models) regardless of which side the driver sat. it worked brilliantly and the release lever in the car couldn't get kicked or tangled in bags etc like they do now.
One of the best intros. Sympathetic music while panning in to Marty's black-and-white-mooded face. And then, "Let's insert the graphics". "Ninga-ninga nuh nuh, ninga-ninga nuh nuh." Had me laughing. Thanks fellas.
Last time I was this early the RS had blown its head gaskets.........
James Webber 😂
I have a feeling this car is gonna see sleeves and block reinforcements before they try and make more power. Because over 400 ft lbs is when the head gaskets go and cracking occurs.
Strange move for Ford considering the stock block and sleeves of the ST can handle much more power and torque before anything occurs. I've seen some tuners push bottoms ends on the ST to 800hp before the cylinder walls crack.
James Webber and the street cred mk3 golf on the front struts
7:05 It's not a weird Euro-thing. Your steering wheel is on the wrong side
I guess they think its weird because aussie cars and japanese cars have the bonnet catch on the drivers side even though it's on the "wrong side" its only euro cars that seem to not bother moving the bonnet catch over when they move the steering wheel over...
We bothered enough to move the driver's side :D
How can it be wrong it's on the "Right" side
Right, in Germany and in the US we drive on the left side of the car, the hood latch is right there at my feet. I have a Focus ST BTW.
I love this channel, one of the best UA-cam channel choices Ive made for years!!
How the fuck has a company not given you a lift for free advertisement at this point
I'm pretty sure they've said in the past that their shop's too small.
MidwestVillain Z Don't know about you, but as much as I want a lift, I don't have 10k plus to spend on one. Business advertise items that are affordable to a wide range of people... hence springs, wheels, filters etc.
Skritix where are you spending 10k+ for a lift ?
yeh like 2600 USD for a 12K lb 2 post
It takes away from the diy aspect of might car mods. Not everyone can afford a lift or have space . That and I don’t think they have enough space.
What a mad ending. Michael Bay would be proud.
I was away from my computer when the "credible experience making fast and stealthy Fords" comment came... So i backed up to watch... Was not disappointed
Exactly one week ago i sold my RS back to the dealer. I loved the car, but after they had to replace the engine due to water in cylinder 3, i lost my trust in it.
Every time i started it upafter i got it back, i checked in the rear view mirror to make sure there was no white smoke cloud.
The car is a blast to drive though. Twisty back roads makes you grow horns.
Just the other day i bought a classic mini instead (Brittish racing green). I am aware it will probably be way more unreliable than the Ford, but when it brakes down it will be cheaper at least.
But i'm sure it will make me smile driving it, just as the Focus RS did.
Good luck with Your RS
exoc1 well that was a bit silly considering the issue is fixed and you still had a warranty anyway. Bet you lost stacks selling it back to the dealer to. Why wouldn’t you just either keep it or sell it privately?!
Well, i don't really trust that the issue is really fixed. And sure, it still had warranty, but i had to wait 12 weeks before i got the car back from the shop. Even if it's under warranty, it's still a hassle. And, yes. I lost some money selling it to the dealer, but this way I avoided scammers, test pilots and avoid being called up months later by the buyer wanting money for hidden errors or such.
exoc1 12 weeks to replace an engine? needed a new dealership
It wasn't the dealers fault, It was Ford. The dealer got ford reps to determine what to do, they said it was the head gasket. Ford had just designed a new gasket, but had none on stock in all of europe... After 5 weeks of wait time (this was in the summer, and many companies were low on people due to summer leave), they couldn't even come up with a date. I called and emailed every other day, and all of a sudden i got a reply saying: "Ford changed their mind, You'll be getting a brand new engine. It has 6-7 weeks delivery time".
So, the dealer did their work within a week. Ford couldn't supply parts, that's what took so long.
exoc1 they should have just put a mustang head gasket.... Oh wait that's how this all started :)
In this episode of Mighty Car Mods we void our new car warranty.
Steven Arnold they voided the warranty as soon as they laid their hands on it in the factory lol
lol, and probably a bunch of union bylaws :P BTW, I fully endorse voiding warranties ;)
Mountune is infact Ford approved, possibly needs to be installed by a Ford approved dealer but nevermind.
They need to buy " i am the warranty " T-shirt from B is for Build 😁
Fraser Cooley Unlike, US and UK. Ford Australia are yet to approve Aftermarket modifications. Even Mountune. So yeah... you void your warranty.
I have seen a bunch of launches on the track but that's the first time I have seen you guys do it without a car.
Front plate: 2SXYGTR
Rear plate: DQN94D
:)
I honestly didn’t feel any difference when i installed an intake (performance wise) but i did gain some noise. 😎👌🏻
thats what most aftermarket intakes give you more noise=extra butt hp
@8:40: The play by play was killing me. 🤣
(Yes I am going back and watching older episodes while waiting for your new uploads!)
Its the TRD Laser.. IT WILL AMAZE YAH
when you close a bonnet don't push down on it because you could ding it, you should drop it just enough to close it.
And then hit it with a hammer.
To make sure it closed.
That thing that they were talking about removing is a fire suppression blanket under the hood which drops when it gets to hot under the hood. I do not think it would be too wise to remove that.
Swapping the Michelin pilot cup 2's with plenty of tread left for the Bridgestone Potenza Re003 is a down grade.
But the Cup 2's are a really bad daily tyre and expensive to replace.
@@leksasdf Yeah but you can drive them till they're done for. Still the better tire. And the stock wheels are forged if I recall correctly. And he looks like he went even smaller aspect ratio on tire, which is already an issue for harshness stock.
Yeah stock tires and rims are already top of the line. They should have just powder coated the rims a different color and put them back on.
YAY MY BOYS ARE MAKING VIDS AGAIN.
the hood popper is on the correct side.. i just checked my 2014 ford fusion 2.0 ecoboost.. it was on the left side of the car.. ( yes i am in California) and i like your shows.. great humour
46 pops of bubble wrap I do believe.
Michael Bacon
And 47 likes
I think still it was 44pops
10:40 "some internet Engineers.." lmfao!
I bought a Cobb intake for my Focus ST... didn't care about any 1/2 +/- hp gained or lost... but I love the the choo choo noises without getting some gaudi garbage
Mountune! Matt Farah would be proud
Honda S2000 invidia exhaust install you used a 15mm!!!!!
MCM happy about getting American made parts to install. That makes me smile.
So you downgraded the tires? The michelins were so much better!
The bridgestones are grippier
Don't be obscene! Re003 are mid range summer road tyres. The old tyres are cup 2s, a high grip ultra sport tyre designed for track use and OEM fit on ferarri, Porsche and most bmw M cars. The bridgestones aren't even close.
In fact on a wet track day my old golf R on bridgestones was struggling for grip, and a 720hp McLaren running cup2's was planted. Enough said
They have to use re003 because they are sponsored by bridgestone, no matter if the tyre is better on not.
Shrink1061 I don't know what you're ranting about but those Michelin's aren't anything special. They're basic street tires not for track.. Just have a look at the tread pattern.
Shrink1061 downforce makes that difference, not the tires!
8:40 close your eyes and ponder what is being said...
love'n the milk crate seat. Essential bit of kit in every Aussie shed!
First and most important mod: a new headgasket
Jens Christian Rædkjær wrong car.
Unco Casey no it’s not🤷🏼♀️
Unco Casey actually it is the right car they used the wrong head gasket from the factory
Unco Casey All 2.3 ecoboost engines have an open deck block configuration, the piston walls vibrate internally wearing away the head gasket between cylinders 2 and 3 because of this.
Wasn't the point of the intake to make more noise when bonnet is closed? And then you test it with bonnet open
will sound the same with bonnet closed as i found out on my Volvo T4
Talking about changing the stock air box to get a better turbo sound, I can definitely agree. The stock air box on my 2011 STI sedan had a gallon milk jug looking silencer hanging down the bottom. I installed the Cobb sf intake with air box and ots stage 1+ (saying stage because that's what it's called) accessport reflash and the difference in sound was night and day. The spool up and recirc sound is way louder. It was like turning it up from 3 to 11. First drive after the install had me laughing the entire time. Definitely worth it.
“The tip of its in but I cant feel it” oh moog
PLEASE CALL IT THE MOTHAFOCUS!!!
About the same as I got on my '13 FoST with the Ford M-5200-U lowering springs. A considerably tighter ride too.
sooo should do an a capella version of the intro song and throw it in every few episodes or something...
The engine block cracks. Such a shame. Really sweet ride! There's a video on UA-cam with a dude that cut the block in half to show the problem.
I love this song 10:31
Myles Burgess I know, I have been trying to find it
It's a Moog original, you can buy his music in the store
It’s unreleased :( I love it too
I don't know why he doesn't release all his songs, he should. Lots of his music I love are not released.
Download Shazam
Sorry I'm late MCM, I had to watch the HOONIGANS first lol 😂
it will be a happy day indeed when they finally do a collab. two of the biggest car channels in the world - yes, i know hoonigan are a lot more than a youtube channel... - it would be amazing to see them do something together. perhaps a hoonigan mega roadtrip to australia...
PommyDownUnder98 I honestly couldn't agree more! That'd be an amazing episode!
BTW so glad you still reference the trd lazer
i think the nissan leaf benefits the most out of all cars when adding a pod filter
can confirm i bought a pod filter and electric turbocharger from ebay for $50 for my nissan leaf. dyno'd at about 1500 kw.
DemonDew wow so that leaf would have been putting out a whopping 158.5 kw after that lol
Pod filter and i also heard if you lick 9 volts and throw em in the battery pack still wet it's like a NOS shot.
And a turbo back exhaust
my guess, the fridge sized box is an exhaust
That's what I'm thinking too
I agree
Panda MCR good guess
Nah....fluffy dice!!!
It would be fun if they actually got a fridge-sized box full of foam. Bit of a waste though.. xD
"It's warm, so everyone knows." Lol that was the first thing i thought. Don't rev a cold turbo! Love you guys!
Michelin Pilot Super sports to bridgestone RE003?!
Exactly... downgrade imo.
Sport cup 2 by the looks. Talking about going backwards
Yay for sponsorship
eh i dunno. id take my yokos over either any day, but we have RE003s on our two dailys and i wouldnt have anything else. not the stickiest, not the hardest wearing, not the best in the wet, but just plain and simple, good at everything and i love them for it. i hate bridgestone though. dealing with them has never once been a happy experience. to the point where ive gladly gone and paid like $30 extra for each tire just so i dont have to deal with them...
SPONSOR!!!
HEADGASKET IS NEXT
Yeah pre July 2017 build date
It's still the same open deck block. They need to make serious changes, but I fear they have shelved it until they build the next generation, or they will make a facelift like they've been doing on the ST line recently.
Burly Heads the Focus RS isn’t coming to 2019, you know that right?
So true, One owner in Chicago actually experienced hydro-lock in one of the cylinders. The open deck is the main issue and a new designed head gasket is just a temp fix. If and when you mod your RS look out. Too bad with such a cool little hatch back.
@@burlyheads it was caused by the incorrect gasket being used. No longer an issue. It's the same engine in the mustang the focus st and the focus RS as of 2019 so they're all the same but running different internals. They're very reliable engines when the correct gasket is used with the correct tune and internals.
Awesome work guys!!
i saw the title and immediately came in my pants
while marty nutted on a shock :D
Take off the intercooler baffle of the passenger side of the intercooler its just sticky peel it off
It's there for a reason.
The Soviet Gutter Cat Australia is not a high humidity area threatened by water droplets. DUH
was looking for this comment lol. I'd definitely remove it in oz.
Sydney is classified humid subtropical.
Brisbane is classified humid subtropical.
Northern Australia experiences a very humid wet season.
Northern Tasmania experiences high humidity all year due to the ocean between mainland Australia and itself.
Just about the whole east coast gets high humidity, but sure, take the sticky sheet off. Those engineers probably didn't know what they were doing anyway.
This is a non issue, it's already been done to death. It was an over-sized intercooler, baffle or not. It isn't going to change performance, though potentially could induce water into the system.
that's will keep the high temp side cooler than it should be. Don't do that on the stock car.
Love this series can you guys do one whit a Renault clio RS EDC
Just drive it how it is
Naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
M&R Tuning yeah.... nah
New channel: Mighty Cars Stock.
😂😂😂 that would make this a car review Chanel then!!!
Mighty Car Mods I know right XD
Every car I have ever owned
This week take our already pretty good car to the shops for bread and milk.
pretty sure michelin pss are better tires than re003...
Prob but Michelin tires kinda suck for for the price and the number I've had to replace in my life as a Ford tech and before I was is stupid Cooper's might be better
and that´s how the factory warranty goes into the toilet, Way to go mate!!!!
Go to 8:50 and just close your eyes
Bruh
They did that on purpose
PokeFever no they didn't, it was unintentional
Jr Torres oh I no lol sounds so wrong combing from a couple of guys I was wondering if it was intentional or just everyday ozytalk
They do that in purpose. You're not special writing the same time stamp half of new MCM viewers post
We have got 5 of these cars in for head gasket replacement this week so far at the ford dealership I work at. Fun cars but don’t seem very reliable
Slapnuts that’s cause they are under an FSA / recall for a head cylinder pressure test. No indication of reliability.
So a pressure test where they replace the head gasket like he stated? ... lel
DKTAz00 no. Of course they replace it - why wouldn’t they?
warriormonx Kia has a active recall that involves hooking a mic to the oil dipstick tube and listening for rod knock. Not a reliability issue though.. lol.. How could engine failure be reliability related? Some people are dumb right?
fc3sttwo so two people in Australia from the couple of thousand (est) have an engine failure and that counts as being unreliable? Yeah. Dumb.
I'm from VIC, Aus. Currently leasing a 2016 Fiesta ST for work. I can confirm that Bayford Ford dealership installed a Mountune 215 kit on the ST and it did not screw with the factory warranty. If it did, I would be in a bit of trouble cause it's not my car.
You guys need to get the KW DDC adjustable coil overs that Matt Farah put on his RS. They improve the ride quality and handling substantially by not upsetting the chassis mid corner. Only cheap or incorrectly tuned coil overs make ride quality harsher.
What I said in a comment here. KW coils are a suspension kit without any compromise. Adjustable, electronically controlled using modes, more comfortable and grippier.
