    Positive lead does not connect to engine block/body. That's the negative terminal.

    What's wrong with the Euro brake light in terms of safety? The fact that it's off center by 4"?

    some serious work put into the van.

    There's a limit to mpg when pushing a brick through air. I have a diesel model and in summer I get 40 mpg around town and 33 mpg on highway, it's just aerodynamics.

    Introduction

    mrtn replied to azulejost's topic in Welcome!

    I am. My 2006 TC is on its way out and I haven't found any funky ones from competitors. Most likely I'll get a 1.6L Ecoboost automatic. I have a 2-seater cargo van at the moment, I think that's the model I'll be getting next.

    That is really early for suspension knock unless you have hit a bad pot hole recently. Ford has always had notoriously bad sway bar drop links. Always fails at half the time of Japanese cars parts. It should be under warranty, so have it checked. Perhaps it's a bad steering rack from the factory.

    It's a späm robot, it's not posted by a real person.

    The issue is the combination of a mildly powered 2.0 liter engine mated to long gearing of a 4-speed transmission.

    I did see one TC passenger van with the small mirrors over here, so they must exist as a European part number.

    Is there a cargo cover available for the windowed van?
  17. mrtn
    cool, that'll work well.

    Do you keep wheels in the back overnight? You could use perforated printable vinyl for the glass to have a consistent look and for extra safety, the glass being sandwitched between two layers of vinyl.

    Will it pass the inspection afterwards?

    What modding? Injection remap?

    The TC is made for wrapping. I did mine, should've done earlier than 6 years in.

    You'll need to remove the fascia and check the connection to the knob.

    They are trying to catch up with the design language of competition like Fiat Doblo, Opel Combo, Citroen Berlingo etc.

    There are different types of brake pads available. Some are rock hard and slippery when cold, like the ones used for track driving. They last long tho. The others are shorter lived but stick to the disc much better.

    I have just bought Blizzak WS70 for my passenger car but the first snow has melted. The WS70 are supposedly excellent for snow, mushy on dry asphalt.
