  2. Where is the stamped VIN number?

    Unless I cut into my carpet, I won't be able to confirm the VIN is stamped under my seat. I'm attaching a photo as a reference. In the threads I listed earlier, S550 cars sent to AU and the UK were stamped in the area we've discussed. @Paul2020 :thumbsup: confirmed his S650 is stamped in the...
  3. Dark Horse HP ride height

    To give you an idea...2022 Mach 1, w/HP, aftermarket wheels and tires, within 3% of factory circumference. Measuring from the front splitter can be deceiving. The belly pan extends underneath and goes lower still. When I last measured at the belly pan, I was coming in at 4.5 inches, 11.43 cm of...
  4. New recall: water intrusion into BCM and connectors (25C43/25V546)

    https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls NHTSA is generally good at posting their safety reports. The 25C43 (Ford) / 25V546 (NHTSA) recall has yet to be listed. I'd expect to see NHTSA's write-up to be posted in a few business days.
  5. New recall: water intrusion into BCM and connectors (25C43/25V546)

    The car has two Body Control Modules. BCM-A: Interior cabin, passenger side, next to where right (US), left (AU/NZ/UK) foot would be placed. BCM-B: Interior trunk, right side of vehicle, in the general area of the wheel well. Attached are images for the S550. While the Powertrain Control...
  6. Check Engine Light || Air Filters

    I've feel the problem occurs more frequently with K&N filters, most frequently with oiled filters. Some filters change the volume of incoming air enough to max the fuel trims and/or pester the MAF sensor. Oiled filters often result in the owner using too much oil, the excess residue impacting...
  7. Early oil change message

    The OLM relies on both time and operating conditions to determine when to change the oil. At one extreme, changing the oil and parking the car, the OLM will tick down to 0% at the end of one year. At the other, a track weekend, the OLM will reach 0% over a few days. At it's slowest rate, the...

  9. First oil change--checked the oil next day and it was barely above the min mark

    Good that you checked the level. There've been a few threads/posts of people seeing same when receiving their new Mustang. New engine, Ford filling not full but in-between Min and Max and other factors could lead to this. "Note: The oil consumption of new engines reaches its normal level after...
  10. Ford Motorsport AOS - Confused… Self Draining or Not?

    In the Coyote Mustang, on the passenger side, the existing PCV valve-to-intake tubing will be removed. In its place, a catch can and hoses will then complete the connection. The Ford can does not have a drain back valve to the engine, or a drain valve, like a oil pan. The Ford unit must be...
  11. Gasoline Prices

    Prices in my area have been stable, and, lower than last year. Shell Premium is $3.49 a gallon. - The overall outlook for global growth is lower, with demand projections being reduced accordingly. The global requirement for oil is stable or lower than previous - Russia needs capital, and has...
  12. First oil change after break-in + service package?

    At the time (last season), yes, they would not remove the pan bolt. From the van, they unreel a snorkel and hose, the snorkel then placed down the dipstick tube, to the bottom of the pan. The vacuum system would then be turned on to remove the oil. While they would go underneath, the focus is...
  13. First oil change after break-in + service package?

    Last year, I used the mobile service for a BCM re-flash, as part of a S550 recall. While there, I got a tour of the van. I asked about maintenance, how heavy they could go. General maintenance, to include fluid changes, filters, brakes, maybe a water pump. Thinks like that. Specific to oil...

Follow your heart. ❤:giggle: - The minimum standard for upkeep is what's described and listed the Owners...
  15. Is this a good deal? 2024 GT Premium with PP

    I did a nationwide search of '24s to look for comps. GTs with PP and AE, most with half the miles, sometimes lower still, were on offer for the same price. I then went to my local dealer, to look at '25s. Trying to find the best match, for $5K more ($50K), I can roll out with a brand new car...
  16. Given a VIN can I find out if it has a certain package or option?

    https://www.fordpro.com/en-us/fleet-vehicles/vin-decoder-and-guides/ Ya, VINs are much more generic these days. A standardized format (or striving towards that) is one factor. Another: there are soo many options to any vehicle these days, you'd need a uber-long VIN to catch them all, especially...
