It's the same as letting a clutch slip on the upshifts. Feels to me like the torque converter is not engaging properly

I would believe it. People are starting to have gearbox issues after 80k.

I hope the bicycle is okay. And if there was a human riding it, I hope they are well too.

My rear pads were worn out before the fronts as well. I think the computer uses the rear breaks for stability control or torque vectoring or whatever magic they got to keep the awd stable.

They did the TSB for $700. It still kinda shudders but I'll let it be.

I had the vent hose replaced today. I assumed they changed the oil as well because according to them the noise is gone. I'll see when I get home. This is just another reason I don't want AWD for my next car.

Is it correlated with filling up? I had this on another Ford but only after a filling up with new gas.

I lost one of my window deflectors a while back. Now I have 3 spares. Sticky tape is pretty good but not perfect.

Nah when the fuel injector goes bad it feels like a damn tractor. Pretty funny. Cylinder deactivation you can't really tell when it's happening. Limp mode is like Eco mode+++ the ecu limits your throttle inputs heavily.

Check the brake lights. The turning indicator is used to identify a bad brake light bulb too.

So if you give it the beans and your 3 cylinder suddenly acts like a 2 cylinder being all jerky and stuttering... that might be an ignition coil. It's very noticeable when 1/3 of the engine is gone. I had mine fail around 25k. I also find these engines sputter and bog down sometimes right after...

The 2.0 engine is made in Spain but also in Ohio from what it seems. The 1.5 engine used to be made in Wales. It's now moved to Mexico too. Which is great. Keeping it local keeps the price down.

Air passing over turbo at peak boost

Is it the noise that sounds like metal scraping on the rear rotor? I had that since the start and dealer claimed they couldn't hear it.

Toque steer. Let go of the steering wheel and hit the gas. See which way it goes.

Take it to the dealer while the wrench is showing. Only Ford computers can read those errors.

I got truly false positives maybe only once. But the system gets tripped almost weekly. Like when the car in front of you slows down for a turn and you don't brake knowing they'll move out of the way soon.

I had the wrench come up on my fiesta whenever i gave it the beans. followed by limp mode. especially in the summer. no one could figure it out. eventually i got rid of the car and it forever remained a mystery. just a weird ford thing.

I got the BB with 360+ and sunroof. It doesn't adjust it's speed based on the sign. I thought it would do that. It's logical. Seems like half a feature without it.

I'm no engineologist or anything but turbos need cool air
