I’ve messed with this thing for half and hour and there’s always a small gap between the two pieces. Is this normal or should they be flush against each other?

It shifts through the gears fine as it is but wanted to ask others that have installed one before. It’s a whoosh bracket if that matters.

Just for informational purposes, a 24.4" tall wheel/tire does fit on these cars. It rubs, especially at full lock. Doesn't appear to be rubbing on anything that makes me concerned, just the mudflap. It gets beat to hell rallycrossing too.

Thank you for attending my FiST talk.

Me and a fellow fist owner took apart the rear brakes again and inspected everything. We found a slight amount of rust between the caliper pin and the rear right rotor, cleaned it off and suspected that was the end of the problem. Decided to just double check the left side, and everything seemed fine.... So we re-bled the brakes and then finally put everything back. Went for a drive and the pedal pulse is still there.... So with all that outta the way I went to oreilly and picked up brake best select rear rotors and a free set of pads (which luckily I don't need, the new pads I just replaced are just fine with only 800 miles on them) so hopefully when we redo the brakes the pulse will finally be gone.

Never getting cheap rock auto discs again that's for sure. Let's hope the O'Reilly brake best select rotors are good.

I've been trying to sell these the past two months, and no one who responds seems to actually have cash in hand.

Located in Phoenix metro, though I'm open to meeting within 8 hours of Phoenix.
(ABQ, San Diego, etc.)

Really good condition. No rips, tears, and I don't smoke/vape.

$1500 for both fronts and the rear seat. Not selling any separately.

Will sell for $1200 taking whatever front seats you have as partial trade.

Otherwise, no trades, crypto, wife swaps, or anything other than US Dollar cash.

I have trade reputation on r/Starcitizen_trades and r/hardwareswap

Need to take care of this by next weekend at the latest!
Please do not DM if you don't have cash in hand and are ready to buy.

Thanks.

Got rear ended by a 12ft tall GMC Sierra driven by a 20 year old. He said he literally couldn't see my car from his seat. 🙄 Menaces

Hey all just recently got my ford fiesta ST3 and it’s been the most fun I’ve had in a while, unreal car pretty nippy too. The car I bought was at around 68.200 don’t around 300 miles this week just enjoying the car but I’ve been hearing a what I assume to be the back right wheel axel maybe? It’s exceptionally louder than default which is worrying as I’ve only had it a week. The car does also have a tyre pressure sensor isn’t noticed which I’m not too sure if that’s normal with the fiesta ST.

Apart from the obvious issue with the back wheel I’m in love

The interior sliding shade of my moonroof rattles, especially when it’s cold out. Has anyone else experienced this or found a fix? Thanks!

Hi everyone, I hope this is ok to ask

Hoping to purchase my very first ST this year, absolutely max I can spend is £7K, do you think this is an ok budget?

Any advice or things I should look for and also things to look out for when trying to find one.

Right now I’m just trying to find the newest model I can with lowest miles, a full service history and 5 doors

:)

I've been having some trouble with my fiesta. The car is throwing no codes, but feels like it begins to misfire/shake above 2k rpm in 2nd gear. The car isn't throwing any codes making this hard to diagnose. I've put in new spark plugs which seemed to fix the issue for a week or so before it went back to the shaking/misfiring sensation.

Any thoughts on what it could be?

Ciao ragazzi, sulla mia Fiesta ST mk7 ho da subito montato il RMM Cobb, vecchio modello con i fori. Si è danneggiato e devo cambiarlo. So che COBB ora lo vende senza fori perchè creavano risonanze quindi la scelta è tra Powerflex giallo/viola, Powerflex viola/viola e Mountune. Cosa consigliate? Mi piace "sentire" la meccanica del motore ma non amo le vibrazioni da fermo sopratutto con AC. Grazie

Resealed the grommets. Wasn’t it. It’s leaking above the C Pillar and dripping through the interior plastic. I’ve already taped off the holes where the old tape was in the bumpers. I think it’s the weld seams, so I’ll go there next with some silicone. Luckily hasn’t been my sunroof… yet.

Fiesta ST – any recommendations?

Hi everyone!

I recently bought a Fiesta ST Mk8 from 01/2019 basically stock in Germany and drove around 2,200 km back to Portugal with my dad. The car performed flawlessly throughout the whole trip, even at 220km/h :)
So far I’m absolutely loving it!
It currently has 95,180 km on it, has upgraded braking system, maxton design splitter and spoiler, last oil and filter change at 82k km
I’m planning to change the oil and filters soon.

For those of you who have owned these cars and those who just have way more experience then me, is there anything you’d recommend checking or replacing at this mileage? Any common issues I should keep an eye on or preventative maintenance worth doing?

Thanks in advance!

I was wondering if anyone by chance had a 3d scan of the dashboard (and preferably a pillars). Tried paying someone on Facebook and didn’t work out, so resorting to asking here. Willing to pay if needed

I started the car 30 mins ago and saw the orange key.

I have 2017 ecoboost 1.0 ST line

For the winter tires. I can't decide. Also do you consider jdm style wheels on a Fiesta sacrilege 😁?

Hey all, I've got a Mk7 Fiesta ST here in Australia and want to sit lower in the car.driving position aren't great for me stock.

And ideas or suggestions?

What do I need to know?

It's just been serviced but I aim to oil and filter every 5000k's - any particular oil I should use?

There's a very, very slight knock over bumps. Feels like early wear on a bush somewhere, most likely culprit?

It has the B&O sound system which is nice and I love the colour. I'm not sure about the wheels though, maybe they'll grow on me ...

Hey reddit.

I have a 2015 fiesta st. The clutch has been sticky, I replaced the master slave cylinder a year ago. It was fine for a while but its sticky again. Also in the video the rpms blip up and come back down while the car still goes. Im just pressing the gas slightly and keeping it there. Any suggestions?

So, I went over to a buds house and we did the transmission fluid change, and he was the one who got under the car and drained it. What he didn’t tell me, was how fast it came out, and got on everything before hitting the drain pan. So, I poured the 2 quarts, and he tightened everything up underneath. We called it a day, and I drove home. Well a couple hours later, I wanted to just check for any leaks and behold my mini heart attack when I saw this (pic below) I about crapped myself thinking I just somehow lost all of my trans oil, so I panic messaged him the picture. He then told me about the mess it made under the car and the oil splatter was probably from the drive home on the hwy with the wind blowing all the old oil around under the car that we neglected to clean off after the job was done. He then also pointed out an obvious tidbit that the drain plug Is bone dry, and there’s no trans fluid around the drain or Coming down from the filler plug. Soooo…..lesson learned… bring a can of degreaser next time. Just felt like sharing this. Thanks for reading :D
