First of all I’ll introduce myself..My name is Steven and I’m from sunny Doncaster but live and work in Wilmslow Cheshire through the week..

I’ve had my Fiesta ST (frozen white facelift) for about 5 months and loving the car very much especially on the commute to work. I’ve all ready spent allot of hard earned cash on mods, wheels refurbished and spayed, K&N 57i, red stuff brake pads, Mtec Drilled grooved brake discs front and rear, Hel brake lines, smooth rear wiper, Magnecor ignition leads, Denso iridium plugs and new badges all round...The funny thing is I’ve never modified any of my previous cars before but feel the is something special and finding this to be a new hobby.


I had the Mountune 165 kit fitted last week.. slap face as the current K&N on the car is brand new....

my commute to work has many hills so you certainly feel the difference in torque with the 165.

I need to take the car back to the garage as I’m getting a strange resonated sound from the front area whenever the cars is reversing which doesn't sounds right apart from that it’s spot on.

This is nothing to worry about, i had exactly same issue and it was sorted very simply.

Whats happening is when you put the car in reverse the engine moves ever so slightly which due to the changed manifold can cause it to touch on the heat shield and make it vibrate.

All that mountune did for me was bend the heat shield slightly away from the manifold so that when i do reverse its clear of it and problem solved

Welcome to the madness buddy

Welcome on board buddy

Welcome mate

Hey Steven!! Welcome to the site hun

Hi Steven, welcome to the site.

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone I’ll show pics soon!!

Thanks for the advice Liam much appreciated, I had my suspicions it was heat shield related.

Unfortunately Mountune HQ is a little too far for me to travel so had the kit fitted at my local Ford..looking at what others have paid on the site I think I was slightly overcharged ???
