I really appreciate you taking the time to say that Paul!

[@ashcosmo3854]

"Awesome" and "reliability" should not go in the same sentence when talking about the Focus RS. It's probobly the biggest grenade of a performance car in a long time.

its a shame that Ford decides to kill off the Focus RS model in the US and Asia in favor of the SUVs. The market is to saturated with SUVs and Crossovers. Now the VW Golf GTi is a rare sight

They Didn't "kill" it. I was destined for 3 years of production only. Just like all previous version of the RS. It's meant to keep it limited and preserve the RS brand.

Awesome update! I got mine about a month after you. Mine is a 2016, still new, just no one bought it on the lot lol! Same here also on the gasket, got it changed and the dealership also changed out the PTC while it was in there, and this is also my daily driver. No engine issues at all, no oil leaks. Premium gas and full synthetic oil only. I do get the plastic squeaks also but its no biggie. Was actually a good winter drive also(Im in MI). I bought some Michelin Winter ICE X3's and this thing was a BEAST! Really worth the $ for those tires. I will be putting on the summer tires soon here and also! I also recommend getting the "Sonax Ceramic Coating". Lasts for 3 years and after each wash, looks like your car just got polished and waxed. HIGHLY recommend. Only mods I did was window tint/carbon fiber shift head from CJ Pony Parts/Borla ATAK exhaust. All in all, so happy I have this car and I still get people looking my way or stopping to ask me questions about the car. Sorry for the big txts but happy driving!

I was actually going to wash mine today but it is going to rain tomorrow. I love my car but I don't have time to waste. Keep up the great work. It was a mistake for Ford to discontinue this hot hatch especially after finally dialing it in to perfection after all these years. While Ford is bowing out Hyundai is throwing their hat in the ring with their Veloster N and I think they will sell like hot cakes. Again, thanks for sharing. Glad I subscribed.

Hey Raiti, it's good to see you taking care of your beautiful RS! As you might recall, I told you about the StingerGT I purchased late last year. I'd like to say I've been taking care of it and washing it the way you do yours (as I always took care of my cars when I lived in Dallas), but unfortunately I moved to NYC for work and have not had a chance to really do anything for the Stinger. Poor car is beat up now and the paint looks like I took the bristle brush to it. NYC doesn't make it easy to take care of your car! :(

Im also really in Love with my Mk3 Rs (with Shell Seats, Thanks Germany :D) One Tip for your Setup procedure. It is possible to activate a 5th Drive mode (Custom mode) where you can preset all Settings like AWD, Suspension etc. Just look up for it and patch it with Forscan (max. 5min) The electronic stability control is in Track mode only in "Sport" (it got 3 Settings: on/ Sport/ off). If it is in Sport Mode you can drift at some corners. The back get loose a few degrees if you are to fast for the corner and a few moments later it push you back, but you can't spin or sth. (i hope my english is whell enough to explain it) The start/stop problem is in every car. it is hard to deactivated. In Germany it is tax evasion cause you emission rise (if they find it)

Other than that after 5 years I love this thing. I also love the new exhaust.

Dang. You've done a great job in keeping the typical dirty areas really clean. Those calipers and wheels... What do you use to keep the FL bugs from sticking to the front and windshield?
