I've never seen that level of detail from Ford. I've always felt manufacturers do not disclose, so as not to offer tells to other producers. Marti Reports do become available, but not until years later. In their latest offering, Marti Reports can be purchased up to the Model Year 2020.

For perspective of manufacturer vehicle inventories, I crunched numbers involving some of the larger US vehicle companies. This exercise was to gauge the gravity of the Tesla, 50,000 on-lot number mentioned earlier. Using www.autotrader.com, I did searches for new vehicles on lots throughout...

Sorry about what happened, but glad you are OK. I continue to appreciate how well these cars can protect us. Considering the amount of damage and especially the multiple airbag deployment, I'd consider the car totaled. I was thinking road debris as well. That, maybe something interfered with...

There are procedures how to zero-out and recalibrate Magneride. But I do not recommend attempting them yourself for the following reason: the car is under warranty. While there might be an established procedure for clearing and baselining and it might work, it might not. If the dealer senses...

Agreed. The UPR drain plug works well for me. Femco drain plugs also get high marks. For the filter, I do two things: 1) fashion a funnel from cardboard, so the oil drips into that, then down into the tub, 2) place a few old t-shirts in the area, to catch what the funnel doesn't. Someone made...

Pricing dealer oil changes is like pricing insurance quotes. Location, type of oil, amount of oil, specials, etc. I checked my local dealer, and it depends. At one end of the spectrum, $60 for conventional oil in a 4-banger. At the other, a large V8 and full synthetic, $160.00. In another part...

I think there's a few things going on. The force and amount of water isn't doing the connector any favor. The connections are designed to work in wet weather and general road spray, but it seems the wash might be doing more than that. Salt is an electrolyte; it's capable of passing an...

https://www.mustang6g.com/forums/threads/first-oil-change-and-analysis.132878/page-2#post-4125644 I've been sending mine out for analysis. For the first several oil changes, the results have continued to improve. I agree: all replacement items should meet or exceed the specification listed in...

The recall information is referenced in Post #2 of this thread. The following link can help anyone check their car. https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls Ford also provides information. https://www.ford.com/support/recalls/ Ford is good about notifying Owners. Affected customers should've received...

Below is some insight I provided in an earlier thread. https://www.google.com/search?q=mustang7g+delivery+time+site:www.mustang7g.com&sca_esv=330d60e69ac8c606&rlz=1C5CHFA_enUS1027US1027&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjWoYCBqruLAxXYkO4BHaAJAkQQrQIoBHoECBMQBQ&biw=1464&bih=742&dpr=2 The dealer can provide...

I'm using Michelin A/S 4s and have never had a vibration. Are the tires at the right pressure? I've noticed from my experience and other posts, companies often fill the tires way over, to like 40 psi, 2.75 bar. Are the wheels torqued to the right spec? This should not make a vibration, but you...

As @MCS mentioned, there's a bit of a process. First, Ford has to collect data, confirm there is a problem, notify NTSA, then dealers, customers, etc. Afterwards, determine a fix. It could have been a simple code change. But it also might have involved a chipset, a chip designed and built by a...

https://www.mustang7g.com/forums/threads/2024-mustang-forscan-list-database-spreadsheet-by-livinitup.159997/ This is a link to the ForsCAN thread. As part of the first post, there is a link to a public spreadsheet. I opened that, and did a search for "puddle". The results do reference settings...

If the feature is active, the car should alarm as it normally would when someone has breached the security of the car. The Owner's Manual provides details of the different sensors (movement inside, movement of the vehicle, sudden incline, as in towing, etc.)

It would seem you have to use the manual key to prevent the lights from illuminating? I can't remember if there's a distinction in the welcome lighting between 1) toggling the button on the fob to unlock vs. 2) touching the door handle with one hand while holding the fob with the other. From...

I felt the concerns being expressed were very much the former, not so much the latter. It could be Ford does not have a choice, that their costs are high and they have to price the car at the level. If it is due only to less competition, fewer V8-powered or performance coupes available, I'd be...

The above numbers would be +12.2% +8.2% +.08% +5.3% +.07% Adding one year to the next, +25.85%, or average 5.17%. Compounded, +29.8%, 5.96%. If you bought $1 of goods in 2020, they'd cost $1.21 (+21%) in 2025. That is a general inflation number, not necessarily the amounts autos or auto parts...

I consider using one a step towards goodness. The oil I'm capturing would otherwise accumulate throughout the engines intake system. It also has an opportunity to increase spark knock or create deposits on the valves. Setting those comments aside, the separator gives me something of a window...

I'm using a unit from JLT, which holds up to 3 oz / 85 ml. Close to half a cup. I did look at the Ford Performance site, the installation literature, etc., and the fill size is not listed. But the measuring cups and items I referenced, those are good for anything in the garage like that. Some...
