What should I do next?

I’ve done all the purple stuff inside my car, and now I’m thinking about covering the silver. Should I go for carbon fiber trim pieces or try something else?

If you’re asking me, the transmission should be next.

Funny you say that! I actually have codes for clutch position sensor A and B, shift fork A and B, and even an internal control module error :sob:

I’ve got a 2017, completely stock, and it’s hitting 124,000 miles. Now it slips through third gear. The dealer says it’ll cost 5 grand to fix.

I’m hoping to get the clutches re-packed for less. If not, I might just go for a manual swap.

Edit: What’s that head unit you have?

If they want 5k, you’re better off with the manual swap. Just remember, you’ll have to reprogram an ST ECU and some other computer parts, or it’ll be stuck at 3500 RPM. If you can get that done, though, it’ll be a fun upgrade for sure.

I have the same head unit from Amazon. Just look up 2017 Ford Focus touch screen, you’ll find it.

That clutch sensor code might be part of a recall from Ford, but they don’t have the parts for it. The temporary fix is a whole new engine…which they also don’t have.

I’m dealing with the same thing. Been stuck in a rental for 2 months, and it might be another 4 months before I get my car back.

I’m so paranoid, I keep it in first gear all the time because I’m scared it’ll shift. It’s dumb, but I just don’t have the money to fix it.

I’ve got a catback and a gutted cat, so holding it over 6000 RPM around town is driving me nuts :joy:

Just stay away from Grove Street, man.

I’ll take a number 6 with extra dip.

Ahh man, here we go again.

So, how’s the radio working out? I’m thinking of getting one but not sure yet.

It’s awesome, especially with the big screen. The only issue is that only the hazards and lock/unlock buttons work. I’m still trying to figure out how to fix that.

You probably need to set the right canbus model in the radio settings.

I love the purple, but please don’t add carbon fiber trim :pray:. It just messes with the clean look, in my opinion.

Grove Street 4 life, my dude.

So you really rollin’ with the Ballas now?

Why not go full tacky and slap some gold plastic trim? Like, make sure it looks fake too /j obv

Honestly, I’m tempted to go to a junkyard, grab some extra trim, and spray paint it just to see how it looks. Might actually go well with the purple…or be totally awful :joy:

If you do the outside, you could add one of those weird wing angle kits, maybe throw on some Hello Kitty rims, and go for a hot pink paint job while you’re at it!
