Hey yall, I’ve been car searching for months and have finally landed on a few different options, the 2014-2016 tC being one of them. I’m really only looking for an auto, I don’t want a manual daily driver.

I’ve read pretty mixed things regarding the reliability of these little coupes. I’ve heard of trans issues, oil burning issues, bad paint quality, bad interior quality, the list goes on. (I’m taking about the U760e and the 2AR-FE)

I absolutely love the way the 2nd gen tCs look. Especially the “limited editions”. I have my eyes on an orange and black two tone one currently.

My other two options are a Honda Fit or a TT V6 Ford Fusion sport. The tC is like the middle man out of the options. Would yall recommend one? Thanks!

2009 tc....~260k miles. oil used to burn from the top dot down to a dry dipstick in just a 360 mile highway trip. Thats a couple quarts? anyway i did the berrymen solvent cleanse thats mentioned in this sub often and now it takes me over 3k miles for the dipstick to go dry (HUGE WIN).

I want for my car to drive faster and smoother. what mods can i do to quiet the noise that comes from an older car like this? and boost acceleration a bit..mechanics have told me that this car is only halfway done if i look after it. i do my oil changes, spark plugs, coil packs(and refills due to consumption) and have one guy for tuning up shit that i dont know how to do. what can make this shit accelerate like a new car though?

now this is mostly to vent but feel free to help out uhh i have a shitty EVAP system..mechanic did a smoke test today and smoke came from my gas cap so i replaced that but my car is still driving funny with the check engine light back on and stalling everytime i fill up my tank. (p0171, p0441, p0455) They already replaced my purge valve under the hood months ago and told me today that one is still good.

Also fuck this bumper.

hi! looking to get my first car and came across a 2014, 137k miles, $5.9k, VERY light scratches bumper/side scratches or a 2015 release series 9.0, 90k miles, replaced (unpainted) fender and headlight on drivers side, CV axles & brakes replaced last year, $7.5k. Wondering if there was any pros or cons between the two, and i wanted to hear what you folks who’ve personally owned one has to say.
