Roll with your front plate inside the car, just in-case. But yes, no drill. They can throw the bracket in the trunk.

Great list. Consider adding the following: - while under-hood, check fluids - check front suspension. ensure shipping blocks removed Edit: - in the trunk, confirm special funnel whereabouts -- needed for gas can/fuel additive (like stabil) fills

FWIW, I checked my S550 earlier. There's a bulge (out) in the same spot, shaped a bit differently, but close to yours. The liner is all one piece. I didn't try to pull it back and look in, as there are fasteners close-by.

@Ford Motor Company Ya, that...is not going to work. Thanks for posting. The openings are purpose-cut. There have been instances of seats and whatnot installed which were not supposed to be on the car. I wonder if those liners are for another spec, another model and were installed by mistake...

I attempted to locate DH alignment information and could not. Anyone who has received a DH, have you been gifted a DH Owner supplement? Owners of previous cars like the DH were provided a model-specific supplement which included track settings and other track-specific information. From the...

We were discussing storage, oil and oil pressure at Spring startup. Herein is a little insight I gathered. The general consensus is simply to get on with it: start the engine and get it running. Modern engines, modern oils, can tolerate storage much better than previous generations. Further...

Safety. Consider your custom mode might involve something akin to track mode (with Traction Control disabled). Someone else uses the car (family member, Ford Tech, etc.) with your custom settings active, and...you get the idea. Defaulting to Normal ensures whomever initially gets behind the...

^ These. Early on driving my car, something seemed odd. I wasn't aware of the feature, but could tell the brakes were holding certain times (pointed "up" on a hill or slope). Scrolling through the menus, I found it. And turned it off. Hill Assist is enabled by default. I prefer to drive...

Last year was the first with my car, the first Winter in storage. Did virtually everything the OP did. Last November, I'd just crossed 1000 mi / 1600 km. - Full tank of fuel - Stabil - Full detailing, inside and out - Inflated tires to 40 psi, 2.75 bar - Did not set parking brake (stored...

There've been at least two reported instances of challenges in the last year. Best practice is to remove anything "racy" (stickers, badges, lanyards, etc.), anything that might give a whiff of "racing" before taking in. If asked, "I only use the car on the weekends, for carrying groceries and...

Full synthetic, Pennzoil Ultra Platinum "PUP", 5W-30. There are a lot of great oils out there. 1) Find something that meets or exceeds requirements, 2) use it consistently, 3) follow the maintenance schedule 4) always perform a complete warmup before any spirited driving, 5) don't abuse the...

It's a UPR type for my 2022. Correct: Members have confirmed the S650 is using a traditional metal pan and plug. I'd expect the aftermarket to field S650 versions as soon as it's possible.

Many do their initial at a 1000 miles / 1600 kilometers. Skye is a weekend/Holiday car and not a DD. I did my initial at 1265 mi / 2035 km. Leaning forward to Winter storage, I completed my second this week at 2546 mi / 4100 km. I think it's a good practice to accomplish the first around a...

Production was halted very early on for identifying and correcting some specific engine issues, but I never read a definitive statement as to what the problem was. There's a big difference between "valve cover gasket" and "valves" or "valve guides". Something involving the keyword "valve" was...

As a former user of Chemical Guys, I'd advise you to look elsewhere. Chemical Guys has a new product of the week, every week, which appears to be the same as last week. There's a large amount of overlap amongst items. The line/s are confusing. It isn't always clear what the best use of a...

I have AE. When decelerating and especially in Sport Mode, I'll get crackling and popping. :inlove: Does the mode driven in make a difference in what you're hearing? Can you post an audio?

After taking receipt, did you reset the trip/mileage info with a full tank, to start a new baseline? Or is some of the previous information still in the system? During transport and checkout, the car was doing a lot of starting, stopping and idling.

I feel it drains more completely when at a warm temperature. The oil flows better. Any particles suspended in the oil are more likely to make the move and join the rest of the flow. The S550 filter goes in at a 45-degree angle. While I couldn't completely pre-fill it, I got it about half full...
