    we all know the 2012 are sh*t especially once it is over the "extended" recall warranty they provided. we replaced the TCM, we replaced the A and B actuators, even replaced the neutral safety switch. and now we are still having issues. car makes a weird grinding noise upon starting, it will let...

    I have a 2014 SE sedan, and a few months ago, I swapped the DPS6 dumpster fire for an MTX-75. I grounded the neutral wire, so it starts and runs, but with a 3500 RPM limit. I can get a hair past 80 MPH, but very casual acceleration is the best I can do, and this gets annoying. I am aware that a...

It was pretty brief at first but the warning has started to stay on for longer, and the last time it also turned my traction control off.

    Has anyone ever gotten a TCM from eBay, either used or brand new, or gotten one from a junkyard? I don’t think I’ll be able to wait however many months for the warranty part to come in and work to be done. If you have, what has your luck been?

    Hello everybody, A couple days ago (from writing this post), I have decided to put extensive research into the Ford Focus Mk3 DPS6 transmission and have learned that random glitches can be a defect of the TCM. So, add this glitch to the list of errors and glitches! Yesterday (as of writing...

    Hello, I have a 2015 Ford Focus SE, not ST, but that shouldn’t make a difference. I’m having transmission issues. Check engine light is on, it’s not reversing, it’s having issues shifting gears, and a diagnostic test has been run and code P090C came up, which is for the TCM. This SHOULD be...
