  1. Rearview Mirror Adjustment

    Same thing happened to me last year. And I was just trying to tilt up the mirror a wee bit while I was driving. No excessive force at all. I ended up holding the mirror, mount and a nice chunk of glass . Independent glass shop told me he has seen a couple of cars with same problem. Windshield...
  2. We are fortunate

    Amen.. I am a classic old time capitalist. Build it and if the public likes it they will buy it. If they hate it either modify it or move on to something else. I have been buying and repairing cars since the 70's and my 2024 Mustang GT is by far the overall finest car I have ever owned and I...
  3. Center Screen won’t turn on, system update or deeper electrical issues?

    Good to hear! I had an update, many moons ago, which disabled my built in navigation and would post the "visit Your Dealer" message. The next morning I had a "software updated" message and all was well. I suspect the car tried to update and failed but tried again and was happy.
  4. S550 vs S650

    My salesperson asked me if I was technically inclined or not so he could tailer the screen tutorial to my abilities. The only item I asked for was to have all the nanny/reporting stuff turned off when I took delivery which he did. Once I got used to the car, I turned some of it back on as...
  5. Pumping Gas Problems

    For me it's only a single Exxon station that is finicky. Others are fine. Also I never top off after a legit fill. Super bad for the EVAP system, especially on wifey's VW Atlas where it's a known issue.
  6. Pumping Gas Problems

    I have a similar problem. From what I have read it has something to do with how the sensitivity is set for the shutoff. What I do is turn the nozzle completely upside down and it seems to work fine at stations like this.
  7. Tips for photographing black cars?

    Looks great to me!! My previous 2003 Mustang GT vert was black and it was very difficult to keep clean. I was going to suggest taking photos within 30 minutes of washing/waxing etc because it will only go downhill from there :) You probably know this already!
  8. 700A worth $4995 more than 600A ?

    In my 30+ years of buying cars, I tend to order the package that has the creature comforts rather than performance features. The reason being, I don't track my car as it's more of a touring car, but more importantly things like suspension, brakes, etc are generally a LOT easier to upgrade...
  9. Whine/hum from rear.

    I have a similar problem only the whine is coming from the front of the car. Oddly it only happens when the wifey is with me so the fix is simple. <Rimshot> ! Staying on topic, check out this site for general diagnosis/symptoms. <https://differentials.com/diagnosing-differential-problems/>
  10. Has the GT also fake exhaust sound?

    Ahh understood!! So it's basically like the "Loudness Compensation Switch" on integrated amplifiers. I get it now. Thank you.
  11. Has the GT also fake exhaust sound?

    What is the difference between EQ flat or stock? Wouldn't setting the EQ on the head unit to the middle, on the sliders, do the same thing?
  12. Front tires out of round

    A couple of questions the answers I might have missed in this thread. 1. The stock/factory rims and tires were fine? No vibration? 2. The vibration occurs at ~ 50 MPH ? 3. Do you feel it in the steering wheel or your butt? 4. If you let go of the steering wheel at 50 MPH, or when it's...
  13. Front tires out of round

    As a person who for some reason has had vibrations, uneven tire wear and alignment issues on several brand new cars (not Mustangs) I know full well the frustration you are experiencing. It looks like you did some good diagnostic troubleshooting so if you continue along in same way, you will...
  14. Yet another software update.

    The latest update, today, turns off the audio instantly when I open the door. No longer a delay.
