  1. The change from the tried and true and easy to program Homelink to the awful Lear unit is something I experienced a few years back when working at a Cadillac Agency... big thumbs down to the Lear. All I can think of is the Lear unit must be $$/unit cheaper. There is NO advantage that I can see over the Homelink.
  2. ..By your command... :D tsb11-07-29.pdf
  3. Have to agree with you there, what really makes me chuckle is when the "journalists" bemoan the lack of shift paddles. I mean really, what did we do before then, rowed the funny stick popping up out of the floor, with THREE pedals no less....
  4. Strong rumour is that is is going to happen, perhaps as soon as 2nd Qtr 2012. ^_^
  5. This is common for any rain sensitive wiper system. If the switch is set to on it will sweep once on startup as part of it's self test.
  6. For that...there is always Ebay.. ^_^
  7. Here is the Ford SSM on the engine cover delete....no reason other than deleted stated 21897 2012 FOCUS TITANIUM MODEL ENGINE COVER THE ENGINE COVER FOR 2012 FOCUS TITANIUM MODELS HAS BEEN ELIMINATED IN PRODUCTION AS OF 5/16/11
  8. I couldn't have said it better. I remember getting my first Mustang GT back in '82 (an early '83 model 5.0 4V w/SROD trans), That was an engine I loved to show off! And it put out a whopping 177 HP!!
  9. Generally, Ford only discontinues items like engine covers when they may cause problems like a drivability concern. (Excessive underhood heat may cause fuel percolation issues, this would be especially problematic with a DI engine.) But also it is possible that they may be doing this on the cheap as well....
  10. Engine cover was deleted from Titanium models sometime in May. No detail provided by Ford. :angry:
  11. This is absolutely normal. when rain sense is selected, upon startup the wipers will sweep once as part of the module's self test process...this is not exclusive to Ford's system. GM's works that way as well.
  12. The keycode in my Fiesta (Uses the same key I believe) was in a small clear envelope in the owner gude pack, check all the slots for this...
  13. Cool to hear that, was the wiring taped back on the harness??
  14. Looks like it might not be so bad after all.. Here is a pic of the console area showing lower panel and EATC module installation, FYI. 1 5804567 Parking brake control bezel 2 2780 Parking brake control 3 58044D90 Selector lever trim panel 4 7210 Selector lever 5 - HVAC electrical connector (2 required) (part of 14401) 6 W706999 HVAC module screw (4 required) 7 19980 HVAC module 8 5404644 Lower finish panel 9 W714630 Lower finish panel screw (3 required)
  15. Looking at the shop manual (They no longer have a step-by-step remove-install instruction) you need to remove the console-or at least the side panels and most of the top to access. I agree with DerekC..have your Ford Store do the work...also hopefully someone Michigan Assembly is monitoring our forums and taking note of issues posted here.
