  1. Mustang scratched in transit

    As a reference, the car is currently without title, which aligns with others' comments on no reports would go to CarFax or anyone else. The car doesn't exist yet in any state database. The car does have a Certificate of Origin, created by Ford and now with the dealer. This certificate will be...
  2. Regarding the 2024 Mustang GT Engine Block Heater

    I'm not sure it's so much the PP as the headers and exhaust. Techs will need working access to a freeze plug. Someone with a GT can chime in. I looked for some detailed side and bottom views of a Gen4 Coyote and couldn't find what I wanted. Worst case, they might need to loosen some bits, to...
  3. Fitting Immobiliser 2017 GT

    Welcome to the Forums. :fistbump: I noticed from the title you reference a 2017 car. While you're Welcome here, this forum is primarily for "7G", the 7th Generation (2024+) of Mustang. If you're looking for insight for a 2017, the 6G forum is available. https://www.mustang6g.com I've done...
  4. Regarding the 2024 Mustang GT Engine Block Heater

    I can't speak as to why the kit cannot be ordered and installed with the PP. I suspect it's more Ford's logic and their ordering system than anything else. How many people with a PP will be operating it when the temperatures require a block heater (also think Summer tires)? Ford probably...
  5. Dealer Test drive refusal?!?!

    I'm afraid that ship sailed six pages and 85 posts ago. :giggle:
  6. Dealer Test drive refusal?!?!

    While reading this thread, I thought of the mileage at pick-up thread. https://www.mustang7g.com/forums/threads/how-many-miles-were-on-your-car-at-delivery.159332/ Every situation, individual and dealer is going to be different. From the perspective of the salesperson and the dealer, I can...
  7. WARNING: Check Dark Horse alignment on delivery

    "• Wheel alignments and tire balancing will be provided during the first 12 months or 12,000 miles in service, whichever occurs first." The quote is from the 2024 Warranty Guide, printed page 18.
  8. Oil level after delivery of new car?

    Something related to this thread: record keeping. I have a simple notebook I use for writing down almost anything. I might not remember what something was, but I know where to find that information. The first few drives in-particular, I'd do a general check of the car. Fluid levels, tire...
  9. Oil level after delivery of new car?

    The instructions I posted above are for a 2024. This post will be of my experience with a '22, Gen 3 engine. First time I checked, hot, it was right at the "Full" level, or very close to it. Within the range of the top "x". First time I checked cold, it was close to 2 "x" positions down from...
  10. Oil level after delivery of new car?

    If you did not already know, oil expands when hot, which will affect the readings. I check mine on level ground, after the car has been at its normal operating temperature and sitting. Taking hot and cold readings after purchase, I've noted markedly different levels. I always check hot. With...
  11. Supercharged Mustang for $49995

    "It depends." I can lay out two scenarios, but this is a question to your local government officials, by the person who is going to own and operate the car. If the person is a US citizen working in Germany, existing agreements may allow them to import and operate the car while working in the...
  12. Is this normal from ford?

    Sorry to hear that. If possible, I'd follow-up in-person. You never know what's going on at these places, how busy they are. And it's much easier for someone to dismiss a phone call than to continue to see a customer waiting. They might have parts (connectors) or even a new spoiler on order...
  13. Is this normal from ford?

    I think we can all agree problems like this are systemic failures on Ford's part. As to this specific car and focusing on the rear wing, I can think of several possible failure points: - The wing was designed and created with poor tolerances. It was not checked before being shipped to Flat...
  14. What is 87+ meaning ... ?

    For the benefit of Ecoboost owners reading this thread, I thought I'd provide an additional reference, highlighting the topic of Low Speed Pre Ignition (LSPI).
  15. First S650 2024 Ford Mustang Diecast! 1/18 Dark Horse in Carbonized Gray

    I have not gone through each page of this thread, so if the following is duplicative, sorry about that...
  16. Typewriter Tick/ BBQ tick fact compilation?

    I think it's good to have a general awareness of almost anything. But specific to this topic, I wouldn't follow the rabbit down the hole too far. Tomes have been written about the BBQ tick, none with a definitive explanation of the root cause, what to avoid or what to do. From my readings, it...
  17. Is this normal from ford?

    Vehicles are complicated. Sometimes, things need to be repaired immediately before accepting (mechanical break, safety, etc.). Others, not. Some buyers will refuse delivery before concerns are corrected. Others will record the issue and schedule a fix date for later. Some items aren't discovered...
  18. Questions about ordering a new 2024 GT

    https://www.mustang7g.com/forums/threads/guide-for-newcomers-ordering-vehicles-at-the-dealer.157583/ A1. It's in your best interest to do so. At a minimum, you should have the price of the car, administrative fees and dealer add-ons (none, unless you want them) negotiated before committing to...
  19. Car cover or not?

    Salut, Congrats. Grabber Blue Metallic is what all the cool kids drive. :giggle: Is there a chance the trees or shrubbery could be trimmed back? Outside car covers can present a few concerns. First, placing it on the car, the car should be clean, as in just washed. I would not put a cover on...
  20. Financing a "build"

    Welcome. :fistbump: https://www.mustang7g.com/forums/threads/introduce-yourself-to-mustang7g.156050/ I'm going to drone on about several things. This isn't your first rodeo. Maybe some additional feedback will help. :thumbsup:Maybe not.:crazy: Writing things down helps me in many ways. I...
