It's not so complicated that it would be unreliable. Direct injection has been around for quite awhile and I don't really ever see them going bad, both engines are good motors you can service motors that have carbon build up and bring the power back, the 2.3 just doesn't have redundancy to...
Yes the carbon build up is one of the biggest reasons why I want the 2.7 (besides the twin turbo goodness) the 2.3 is direct injected, which means that the fuel is sprayed directly into the combustion chamber (where the piston is) as opposed to port injected which means that the fuel is sprayed...
Having a '21 model year will be an awesome badge of honor to have, but.... since it seems like it's going to be a couple years before dealerships can get them on their lot, the price of any early Bronco will sky rocket, and if someone were to offer me a lot more than what I paid then I would be...
Very nice, I had the s60r not that long ago, but does it kick you back in your seat and hold you there until red line like the volvo's or does it feel like it looses it's wind when it gets to the top like other ford turbos (or any other modern turbo manual)?
Yes thank you!
Do you know if the 10 speed in the bronco is still the same one as used prior, or is it an updated one? Also how long do you think it will take for someone to swap the manual into the V6? haha
I really don't think you understand the burden of proof concept, you HAVE to prove something to be real in order to call it real, you can't declare something and then demand people to prove you wrong, because when they surely fail to prove to you that fairies aren't real, you get to claim a...
In order to achieve that moral high ground of not buying from that kind of horrible environment would mean just making everything yourself. It's almost impossible to find something not made in china. I don't like it but what the hell can I do? I would be stuck picking the shiniest of 2 turds...
Well hard proof would be a trans code found on the bronco, or a schematic that is the 7speed with the code MT88 labeled on it. That certainly would satisfy my curiosity. Once again even if it's been discussed many, many times doesn't make it hard proof. It doesn't matter how many times its...
Yeah I can't do crew or mega cabs, I love my small compact vehicles too much. Big power in a small package is what I love. I kinda want to give the auto a try since I know I'm going to be putting a lot of miles on my bronco, and probably would be nice in traffic, but I've always owned manuals...
Coming here asking these questions is a good place to start to be pointed in the right direction to what I am looking for rather than spending the time shuffling through page after page that all might just be rumors. At least here there's enough people who also want the same answers that there's...
If the truck you're talking about is your profile pic, than I love it. I was looking at a regular cab with short bed F150 prior to the bronco being announced. But I'm hoping that the 10 speed just has some bad eggs, just like anything else out there. But it's still hard to say if they truly will...
Well if there is an aftermarket metal oil pan, that could be that issue checked off.
Turbo failure does suck, but it could be an upkeep thing to make them last.
Gas direct injection motors all suffer from carbon build up on the intake valves since the gasoline from port injection cleans the...
What? I'm asking where is the info regarding where the transmissions are built? You guys are talking as if you have hard proof that the manual will be from China, I want to see this hard proof rather than going off of hear say and rumor.
