Issues & Defects from factory

evse82 · 12-22-2009, 03:17 PM

I noticed the paint wasn't too good on my 350 and now it is slightly worse on my 370... My car pretty much has orange peel all over it.... Sad thing is, I have my front bar resprayed and it looks sooo damn good compared to the rest of the car

Sad but true --> I kinda miss the paint on my 97 Ford ghia

I remember how good the paint was for a ford it was crazy... then Im moved on to the 350 and straight away started noticing blemishes....

Nothing too wrong with my paint, just thinner than other cars.

However, one LED on the fuel gauge (right full side) will not light up after a full refill. This maybe caused by the ECU’s calculation of the fuel economy from previous driving habits?

Just had the last two LEDs on my fuel gauge crap out after a refuel. No problem (with this) up until now.

So they were working fine before but not now?

Also just a coincidence, since this topic came up, we refulled my gf's civic and the last light didn't light up lol... maybe it's the Aussie fuel

lol
