  1. Interesting, reminds me of a RAV4. Still looking for a replacement for our 2013 c-Max. I’ll add that one to our list.
  2. The original MPG's for the C-max were 47mpg. Ford gave owners money back in 2013 and 2014 I believe when they lowered the mpg's
  3. Agree with jzchen but... I believe there is a hitch you can buy but for tiny trailers or bike racks. The grade button on the shifter I believe is for maintaining speed going downhill.
  4. If you just changed the oil that would be top of my list to check first. could be the drain plug, oil filter, cap off the oil fill on top of the engine. Gasket missing on the drain plug. double gaskets on oil filter. ( they can pull off the old filter when it's unscrewed)
  5. Welcome! How many miles can you go on battery only?
  6. Why not take it in and get a professional diagnosis of the problem and then decide if you want to try to fix it yourself?
  7. All of the sync 2 cars 2013-2015 on c-max can do this. Mine does it about once a year.
  8. Yes, the sync 2 froze up. Easy fix is pull fuse 79 under the glove box and reinstall. If you don't pull the fuse it can drain the 12v battery.
  9. Here is the forum for the fusion. https://fordfusionhybridforum.com
  10. 2013 Prius turning radius 17.1 to 18′ 2013 C-max turning radius 19.19' Didn't notice it until the first time I tried a U-turn.
  11. Haven't seen that. Must be expanding the coolant? Just add a tiny bit to mine once a year.
  12. Well, you made me look. Hardly a replacement for my C-max. ? But if you need seating for 8 and towing that fills the bill. Was expecting a little better mpg's for a hybrid.
  13. My understanding for my 2013 c-max was 8yrs or 100000miles whichever comes first.
  14. Found an ad for upgrade for sync 2. Looks to be an add on rather than replacement. There is an Install video. Anyone try this?
  15. Looked at my 2013 button tonight, no degradation visible.
  16. jmk above says "Use a long 3/16 hose and push in in to the fill port. " The video on the first page says you can use a 1/2" hose to fill.
  17. I think the dash light will flash when you turn on the car if it can't communicate with the tire sensors.
  18. If the time is 5 years then 2013's may start expiring again. Mine showed up in 2018 last time. Still haven't had to use it yet. Did have the tpms go off on one tire last year because I picked up a nail but was able to get it repaired before it went flat. Which reminds me the batteries in the tpms sensors are still working 10 years now on the original ones. Anyone had to replace them yet?
  19. Were you looking at used MKC's or the new Lincoln Corsair?
  20. My 2013 sync 2 locks up once or twice a year. I just pull the fuse and it always fixes the problem. Never had the battery problem however.
