  2. Factory Matte Clear Film Now Available For 2024 Mustang

    It doesn't read that way. If the film was superior, I'd think the warranty for it would be longer or they'd provide more insight in the release.
  3. Factory Matte Clear Film Now Available For 2024 Mustang

    "To dare is to do." I thought of that when reading this article. IDK. Factory assembly line, wrapping a football (pun intended) with matte wrap. Then the handling and shipping thereafter. And if there is an issue, hoping the receiving dealer is capable of working with wrap and doing a fine job...
  4. Does this sound legit???

    Is what happened legit? No, it is not. The local dealer was attempting to sell a loan to the buyer. In Ford's financial statements, they identify how much their credit programs make money for the company. To the dealer, getting a buyer to finance through them makes a nice amount of money as...
  5. Reusable Oil Free or Dry Filter Replacement for OEM Intakes

    I'm using a dry, reusable filter from Ford Performance (built by Air Raid). I checked for 2024s and do not see one listed in their catalogs (yet). Steeda did some same-day dyno testing with several performance filters; they are worth 1-3 HP. My butt dyno noted improved throttle response and a...
  6. Does Engine Break-In Affect Horsepower?

    Thanks for posting. :like: Videos like this help dispel the non-factual, untested and unconfirmed ideas promoted elsewhere.
  7. No start issue.

    https://www.mustang7g.com/forums/threads/car-wont-start.158592/ This is a like thread. Sorry, no fix or insight, but much of it seems to read like your (and others) issue. Some of us were suspecting a sensor (safety related? gear selector?) was lose or not making good contact.
  8. Chassis Number (non Dark Horse)

    It's my understanding Ecoboosts and GTs do not have a plate denoting a chassis number; those are affixed to Shelbys, GT350s, GT500s, Mach 1s and now Dark Horses. FWIW, the chassis numbers are random plates. While they note the year with a letter, the chassis number is not tied to the VIN or...
  9. Oil Separator-Good!

    I pulled some threads on the debate of using a can versus venting. Some owners will have unique applications with venting that does not involve the PCV valve and system. I'll set this category aside, as it often involves specific tuner/modder/part manufacturer recommendations. For the rest of...
  10. Gas Guzzler Tax

    I think I understand what your asking and the confusion when looking at the tax chart. If I look at the charts, they reference, "combined fuel economy", in the title. On my 22MY, this would be $2600 😳(17 MPG). I did not pay $2600. :whew: I paid $1000, which aligns to the mileage when looking...
  11. Anyone else find the cabin interior warm?

    I think it's normal for a fastback-type car. The S550, S650 rear window in-particular is close to flat. That, coupled with a dark interior, will receive and retain heat. On a clear day, the Earth receives close to 100W of power per square foot, .1 square meter, from the Sun. Pre-tint, I could...
  12. Gas Guzzler Tax

  13. 2025 Mustang Special Editions?

    Welcome to the forums. :clap: https://www.mustang7g.com/forums/threads/introduce-yourself-to-mustang7g.156050/ It's something I'd like to be proven wrong on, but, other than a 60th Anniversary Edition, I would not expect a GT350/500, Boss or Cobra-like edition in 2025. - The current vehicle...
  14. Does your 5.0 Coyote consume oil?

    My comments are from last season. While I have a Gen3, I don't burn a drop. Oil expands when hot. I check my oil (when engine is fully-warmed up) as prescribed in the manual (Page 299): CHECKING THE ENGINE OIL LEVEL 1. Make sure that your vehicle is on level ground. 2. Check the oil level...
  15. Oil life Monitoring Issue

    Should be the following. Just don't perform Step 4. Use the return arrow to exit back out. It's also available from within the Ford Pass App. From the 2024 Owners Manual, Printed Page 300: RESETTING THE INTELLIGENT OIL LIFE MONITOR 1. Press Settings on the touchscreen. 2. Press Vehicle...

  17. Oil life Monitoring Issue

    On the S550, the OLM ticks down 1.9% a week, and expires at the end of one year, just sitting. Increasing is definitely a problem. Difficult to see is ticking down so rapidly, either. The OLM doesn't know what kind of oil is in the car. But the BCM and PCM note how often the car is driven...
  18. Did i cause damage? YES, I ran over a large curb!

    Happy to read there was no damage. A neighbor with a Corvette showed me two features I wish Ford had: 1) if Magneride could temporarily raise itself, for getting over speed bumps or into steep driveways, 2) a front-facing camera.
  19. Price Increase

    Touch'e. I do see your point. By the time the ink is dry on the docs for a new car, $215 is something of a rounding error. Each individual will have their own perception what makes for a good-to-best deal. If both parties to the deal walk away happy, it seems difficult to improve on that. Were...
  20. Tread wear issue ? What is your recommendation?

    ^ This, +1. Trust, but verify. You do need new tires, but I'd like to affirm readings before buying a new set. As an example, mine are wearing level across almost all the surface area, while lessened a touch on the inner and outer edges. I use a Autometer 2160 gauge to check pressures, along...
