You are mixing up D2C and CD2 S197 was the D2C and the S550 is a very heavily modified version of that unique to the Mustang

Relatively easy if you run a business and are the car buyer, but for personal use there are some serious issues there! :wink:

I seriously doubt anybody will ever trigger the warning considering how many times it would be.

Indeed. You only have to look at the struggle Japan has had with zero / negative inflation to see what a huge problem it is and how difficult it is to break out of. Oh and Japan spends more than the US on public spending which somewhat clarifies how inflation is not driven by government...

Government spending is but ONE of the major factors influencing inflation. However there are many others over the 40 year period you are suggesting and blaming it entirely on government spending is clearly incorrect. Inflation is actually a good thing at moderate levels. Comparing the US or any...

They will pi*ss in his screenwash calling them 'stealers'

If you like egg boxes :wink:

From the same article (NOT ALL CARS): To contextualize that number, 384,000 restarts equates to more-than 21 starts every single day for 50 years Here’s How Many Times Toyota Will Let Your Car Start-Stop Before Replacing Your Starter (jalopnik.com)

Yes I do My car isn't a baby - it's a daily driver and gets treated like any other daily driver. 10k miles is regular intervals and the engine will last just fine on that.

My S550 has no rattles

True but every 10k miles is hardly an extended interval. I have had plenty of high mileage engines that have had oil changes at 10k to 12k intervals that have gone on for huge mileages.

No - it just doesn't need it plus would be pretty inconvenient on a daily driver changing the oil every few months.

The ridged bit (centre screen) was flipped up over the lower suspension arm - just pushed it back into position. Done with the wheel on full left lock

I had the same on my S550 and it turned out to be part of the front wheel arch liner was folded up over the suspension.. It was the ridged plastic bit in this picture.

It is only ever Ford Stores that have been able to sell new Mustangs in the UK since 2015. Other dealers can sell everything else currently as there are no RS models at the moment which are also Ford Store only. I ordered mine on 2/2/24 which was when the order bank was opened.

In that case you seem to have the same bug as some others have reported on here

Time is a factor as well

I love my car but I'm not changing my oil every 3500 miles on a daily driver!

Here we go - wait for the thread to be locked - so predictable

You half answered your own question. Strength is not an issue with a 'plastic' pan. They are also lighter, cheaper and help reduce noise. That is why they get used. It also gives some people on a forum a reason to rant and fall out with each other, which is the main reason Ford used them :wink:
