I haven’t used track mode for any substantial period of time yet, at least not on the street. Even when I turn TC back on, the dash continues to display ESC, TC OFF icons and I don’t know which is true. It removes the predictability

If you have your drive mode set to Sport, move your shift lever into M if you are okay with paddling all the gear changes and it will then allow you to upshift at will. Not the case if in Sport and D

I’ve brought this up to the dealer in the past when they’ve had it for other things, such as corrosion replacement of the hood, complimentary oil change, tire replacement, and dealer keeps telling me there isn’t anything showing up in the computer. To look into it further they want the car for a...

It’s simply analytical. Breaking the car is a reference to the core computer issue, which was more thoroughly detailed in a previous thread. Sometimes with the non-responsive throttle, the a10 trans will then have a violent clutch engagement and the rpms will either rev half way through the...

Because I’ve experienced this chief complaint only in Normal so far doesn’t mean it won’t happen in Sport or other modes, I’ve just haven’t experienced that yet. I suspect with different engine/trans programming in sport, it’ll be much less likely to happen. I don’t want a car with an unusable...

With every episode of no throttle response, it’s been in Normal mode. I’ve started driving almost exclusively in Sport with M auto shift after temps get into normal operating range.

I have not driven a DH or other FP/specialty vehicles but if someone would be willing to donate one for me to play with, im ready!

Thank you for your valuable feedback, sir. Your insight is appreciated

Actually no, I haven’t. Even though I don’t think that quirk is necessarily a learned trait as much as something within the vehicle’s code, I still probably should try a reset.

I’ve brought this up with my local dealership but they said they would have to keep the car for a while to see if they could replicate to diagnose the issue since it has never thrown code or logged anything related to the throttle delay. Unless they can capture something from the computer while...

To directly answer that, the cost increase of >20% for a c8 over my GT pushed it out of my car budget. I was also considering it lacked other daily living requirements like the trunk space, increased cargo volume with rear seats folded down, actually usable back seats, etc. I think the spirit of...

So that 0.5sec delay has only been experienced with the throttle, and has gotten me stuck in the middle of an intersection on three occasions, nearly causing an accident two of those three times. The brake has what feels to me to be a small dead zone at the top of the pedal’s travel and...

I’m more looking to see if anyone else has experienced these issues or other issues that have driven them to the same feeling with their mustang. I know selling it wouldn’t be a smart financial move and skews the likelihood that I do end up selling in the near future to low

If I could go back, pretty sure I would spec manual instead. I wasn’t sure if manual vs auto was cause for delay or if that’s an inherently ecu or trans programming issue

The best way I can describe the throttle delay occurrence is it tends to most frequently happen with something like a rolling stop. There was another thread back in May (I think?) that more deeply detailed that. My love/hate of the s650 really boils down to personal preferences and...

I hate that this thought has been growing in my mind but, as the title says, I’m considering selling my special ordered GT. I spec’d 401a, performance pack, nite appearance pack, magneride, etc. I used the DH spec sheet to guide my build. It’s a beautiful car. I expected the s650 GT to be a hell...

There a few little Easter eggs throughout the car if you feel like looking for more

While I was waiting on my GT to be built and delivered, I asked the break in rpm recommendation to Ford’s mustang “concierge” text line. They said 3k rpm until 1,000mi

My recommendation would be to move the gear selector to “M” and paddle down shift to maybe 5th depending on your starting speed, and paddle your own up shifts. From my experience, if left in D and in Normal mode, even with your right foot down, the car will sometimes up shift at or even a little...

Right, but they work together when LKA is in use. Those lane position changes LKA automatically executes by applying some steering input is achieved through the steering assist.
