I fix my broken coolerworx shifter. fiesta st

[@opelmantamechanic8438]

nice to see the lock tight making an appearance 👍

[@PaulinhoThompson]

I always come away having watched your videos Steve feeling educated. I've contacted a few of these gear lever/linkage companies and naturally none make one for my old car, but I'm toying with the idea of "adapting" one to fit my car. So this video was helpful, cheers.

[@Mickyrst43]

I like the way you adjusted the mech so that the balljoint was'nt under pressure.As already mentioned,I hope the replacement parts were free!!!

[@Sparkplugsteve]

Thanks and yes they were. 👌

[@coyote5735]

I think that will break again. There is a large force on that ball joint, especially in the heat of a race and aggressive gear changes.

[@arroncadman9421]

Glad you went through it all Steve hopefully that sorts the issue I hope coolerworks have sorted you out look forward to donny mate 👍

[@r53leon6]

great upload steve 👌🏻 great work mate

[@DanielP-c9g]

Great video steve, keep up the great work

[@mikeberry304]

Great video Steve , in depth quality repair , glad the parts were free , modifications with cable ties 15 p , gearchange kit a lotta money when new , bet you can't wait to try it out 👍😎😉

[@dixiedean2911]

Class video Steve looking forward to the next track day🚘🚘👍😜

[@EnergyNv]

How have you done the phone holder near the shifter ?

[@ayaanbretmitchell9830]

Hello. I have had my shifter for a year now and I can't get into 1st and 5th. Could you tell me what needs adjusting please

[@paulwills3774]

Steve, check out quadlock they do some cracking mounts

[@mallratt25]

I feel special you removed it just for us. Very informative and when my coolerworx breaks, now i know how to fix it hahaha How does it feel driving now with the redesigned boomerang? For the part that broke, that really should be one solid part, not a ball end that screws into an extension. Be nice to get a stronger one made.

[@Sparkplugsteve]

Iv not driven it to be honest. Thanks for watching.

[@phillloyd8625]

Another great video Steve, well done. Surely if it ain't broke, don't fix it, lol 😂😂😂

[@ettieneooo]

What went flying off at 09:31 when you press the ball joint in?

[@Sparkplugsteve]

Nothing. Can only assume its dust particles catching some light in the camera

[@ettieneooo]

@@Sparkplugsteve I was so baked when I watched the video😂 keep it up bro love the videos!!

[@neilyoung1673]

Do these things break there frequently? Hope not as I'm awning on getting one

[@callumtart1386]

Top video as per. Is there any chance you could do a spec rundown video on your mates mini?

[@Sparkplugsteve]

Thanks. I can try and get him to reply for you. I don't really know the full spec as we only occasionally meet at track days and live about 90 miles apart

[@danwilliamsr538]

Are my ears burning? 😉

[@callumtart1386]

Dan Williams yes!! Fellow R53 owner. Just being nosey and wanting to know what done to the car! 🤣

[@Skidz4Cash]

Great video! Where did you get the pumaspeed hole filler?

[@Sparkplugsteve]

Distinct design done it for me

[@wl1278]

my coolerworx on mini also broke, fun....image u just suddenly realzied u can't go to R and 1256 gear...on the street

[@berchiliqc1155]

since u didn't show on video, is locking the shifter cable is easier for the install ?

[@Sparkplugsteve]

I did not lock the shifter cables.

[@ryeguy88]

Where can I get my hands on that accelerator pedal?

[@Sparkplugsteve]

I got the full set yrs ago off a mate but similar can be bought off ebay.

[@stonermountain9147]

it is what it is

[@darkwaterblue]

Putting coolerworx to shame with some zip ties 👌👌 Also could you put a none armrest console from a poverty spec fez in to get round the shift issue?

[@Sparkplugsteve]

I could but it's really handy for keeping things in. Il just put elbow pads on 🤣

[@cmartin_ok]

Updated design of replacement parts - so a design problem, not a manufacturing quality issue ??

[@Sparkplugsteve]

I think it's a design fault yes.

[@richardspeed7036]

Did you have to pay anything for the replacement parts.

[@Sparkplugsteve]

No under warranty.

[@davidholding5335]

Is this a common think to happen

[@Sparkplugsteve]

On the early versions it was but I don't think so with the updated ones.

[@davidholding5335]

@@Sparkplugsteve fitting one this week don’t like the look of getting those cables in fingers crossed 😂😂

[@billiardball9650]

hope you got spare parts free for an item with a big price tag should not have broke so soon steve

[@Alexander_l322]

Not this soon and because it’s made for track use it should be able to cope with some hard shifting.

[@billiardball9650]

@@Alexander_l322 what i was thinking alex and its a mega bucks just for a shifter

[@Sparkplugsteve]

Yes they were replaced for free. I had one of the earliest designs so the newer models are all updated.

[@billiardball9650]

@@Sparkplugsteve happy days goodluck

[@fasthracing]

Shocking quality for what they cost. Clearly not been designed right and/or cheaply (Chinese?) made.

[@Triicks111]

Have to agree with this, this is straight up cheap materials being used. Those ball linkages should never snap. I would send it back and ask for a refund, i mean he hasn't had it long at all either.
