It wouldn’t surprise me if there is also a USA stop sale order. If the gauge cluster goes blank you can’t see your: RPM, vehicle speed, engine temp, tire PSI, gear etc.
in the US, that’s not just a recall, it’s a safety recall. That said, it’s not going to spontaneously combust or lose...
I don’t think Ford offers one. I got this one:

Note: Dark Horse requires a 1/4” spacer for extra clearance.
I had a couple dealers offer that but the ones that did were doing so with a premium price well above the best deal I had on the table. That said, most of my vehicles have had some modifications, some more than others. I don’t usually start modifications until I’ve had some seat time to know...
this is a feature, not a bug! Sync3 it was CarPlay or nothing, you had to disconnect to get factory navigation back.
I’m not sure about the dropdown for the turns.
This reminds me of of the WW2 “dazzle” camo. https://publicdomainreview.org/collection/dazzle-ships/
I think it would be cool if Ford would offer that paint scheme :sunglasses:
At least Black Betty still has a nice... rear end.
I took the wife to a dance hall in town. Came out to find this:
way out of focus, but yes, that is a less than 1 inch gap between this nitwit’s SUV and Black Betty’s well sculpted posterior. no impact.
and of course...
note the...
I do have access to reverse osmosis filtered water, which I normally use for brewing, but, I could easily crank out enough to wash the car. I’ve heard the R/O water doesn’t spot or is less susceptible to spotting. I’ve been meaning to try it, but shoving the car outside while it rains is a...
I’d get it back, and try another dealer. I’d give it 2, maybe 3 tries and if no resolution push for a buy back. These types of problems require actual troubleshooting where no DTC is present. I’m genuinely surprised they didn’t ask you straight away for a code ;-)
I’ know there’s techs on...
a poor man’s run out / out of round check - affix a solid rod to somewhere solid, perpendicular to the rotating mass you’re measuring. Rotate the assembly with rod just barely not touching. If you get contact you may very well have an out of round component. It’s not precise enough to be a...
Meh. I’ve had 70’s era cars that had wonky speedo’s and gas gauges. Smacking the dash usually got things straightened out!
Maybe we need to keep a rubber mallet handy?
My process is:
1) wait for heavy rainfall.
2) Move MDH out of the garage.
3) wait for rain to end
4) Move MDH back into the garage.
I’m only half joking because in South Texas, it’s year round drought restrictions. It’s a cr@p ton of work to get my (beer) hops to grow without being “sun...
