I can't think of any damage it would cause being lost in that location. Maybe a hot spot, if resting against part of the engine or exhaust. Might have been caught by the belly pan and eventually come out. Could be resting against something, never to be seen again. Jacking the car up when...

Previously I was using Tide Free, which is sold as having no scents or dyes. At first I thought it was my eyes playing tricks on me, but I later confirmed under certain low-lighting conditions, the tub would put off this glow, like a low-level underglow. I was aware of the use of image...

If not checking manually, I feel the best alternative is using the TPMS readout while the car is on and moving. Updated readings should be available within the first 100-200 yards, 91-182 meters. What follows are some of my comments from a previous, thread...

Can you give some insight as to how you are driving the car? Are you taking short trips often, lugging the engine, and generally putting around? If you are, that can explain at least some of the oil consumption. The Coyote, any modern ICE, needs to fully warm up. If not, condensation, nitrogen...

Sometimes, it's simply bad luck and a brief opportunity. Often, undisturbed cover and protection from the elements, with a source of food nearby. Along with suggestions on scents and other measures, if stored in a garage, clear it of food, old clothes, storage containers, etc. You don't have...

On Oil Consumption, from the Owners Manual. Page 299 Note: The oil consumption of new engines reaches its normal level after approximately 3,000 mi (5,000 km). Page 434 High performance vehicles can be driven in such a way that may lead to higher oil consumption (this includes extended time...

To the question about the amount of oil being filled, does the service ticket specify? Or just, "Oil change." The Gen3 and Gen4 V8 engines have required 10 quarts for several years.

A week would not be unusual. There are general purpose techs, which perform routine maintenance, and specialists, with advanced experience. It can take time to schedule someone. Further, if the root cause is not obvious, compression tests, bore scoping and opening cases with Ford can take time...

I'd have to study the paint, but the same condition can occur with some laundry detergents. The use of phosphorous and other elements can illuminate or reflect. Previously, the tub in my washer could actually glow. I suspect some component in the paint mix is doing same...

At the time the S550 was on the market, there were statements in the Owners Manual referencing a 1,000 mi / 1,600 km break-in period, with steps on what to do. In the S650, when I last looked into references to break-in mileage, while the printed version did not have a reference, there was one...

Some additional insight on the OLM. As mentioned above, if you change the oil and park the car, it will count down to 0% at the end of one year, or 1.9% a week. At the other extreme, if you hit the track or drive the car hard, you'll notice the OLM countdown quicker. The OLM looks at time...

I'm attaching two threads authored by @DFB5.0 :thumbsup::thumbsup:: one, a general checklist of prep, and two, the process, step-by-step, with photos. https://www.mustang6g.com/forums/threads/prep-before-ceramic-coating.182199/...

The Pre-Delivery Inspection checklist (attached) references only the DH for the shipping blocks. But if concerned, they're obvious. Photos and process to remove are in the checklist. The PP and DH cars are mentioned as both having underbody strakes, which are installed at the dealer...

'22 Mach 1 w/HP. Ford recommends not attempting to traverse areas that have a greater than 7-degree transition in grade. While you can, you'll most likely scrape (to varying degrees) the splitter or belly pan. While the lip of the front splitter measures higher, I have 4.5 inches / 11.4 cm of...

Thanks for the update. Three things I'd like them to accomplish: 1. The drivetrain is pretty dense, with a lot of hot spots. With the car cold, starting at the brake reservoir, run a hand over each bit, down to the area of the trans slave cylinder. Check fluid level in reservoir, any wet...

Autotrader has the following Mustangs on offer: New 650s: 5787 Used 650s: 987 New DH: 452 Used DH: 85 As to why people sell, it's varied. Life happens. Marriage, divorce, kids on the way, moving, loss of income, change of home type, etc. For whatever reason, the S650 has become impractical...

I'm not following the market and pricing, and cannot speak to that. But two things I would clarify: 1) you'll be purchasing the vehicle with no dealer add-ons and 2) what are the expected doc fees? As to TT&L, your state should have on-line calculators for that.
