  1. Steeda clutch spring

    https://www.steeda.com/2024-mustang-parts I did some initial queries and did not see anything. Steeda is populating their web site for the S650. @SteedaTech , have you had a chance to test the existing S550 clutch spring on the S650? Is there a new spring in development? Thanks In Advance...
  2. Lots of unsold dark horse on ground

    This AM I read an article on a recent economic poll and their findings. In general, while top-line and headline numbers do show well, as you dig deeper, read most peoples' experiences and study the findings further, things are not all that great. Any gains being made from interest rate returns...
  3. How many are regretting

    🍿🍿🍿 sharing size. :giggle: help yourselves.
  4. Thinking of moving on.

    ^ This. The dealer accepted the order 90 days ago. Can they provide a date when the paired that order with an allocation? It would provide a more accurate timeline as to how things are progressing.
  5. Thinking of moving on.

    The days of ordering any vehicle and picking up in six to eight weeks ended years ago. As many of the contributing factors have continued, if not increased, it's difficult to see the situation improving. I can't speak to the dealer your working with, their management of allocations and why in...
  6. Oil Pressure

    I have a Gen 3 5.0 with an M6. Cold start oil pressure pegs the gauge. Warm idle is about 20 psi. Once at operating temps, pressure increases with RPM. Seeing the gauge move past at least 60+ psi with every shift is normal for me.
  7. WARNING: Check Dark Horse alignment on delivery

    On the side of the tire, and in the tire documentation, is a "Treadwear" rating, a three-digit number which gives the Owner an idea how quickly a tire will wear out. The higher the number, the longer the tire is expected to last. I'm using Michelin All-Season Series 4 tires; they have a...
  8. 2024 Mustang TypeWriter Tick Question

    You might be referring to XL-17? I've read about it. Some have speculated Ford has used in it their factory fills. Still today though? 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♂️ https://www.oemfordpart.com/oem-parts/ford-oil-engine-xl17 https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/motorcraft-xl-17-mystery-additive.201234/
  9. 2024 Mustang TypeWriter Tick Question

    Several have proposed ideas as to what the tick is, none of which have been confirmed. FWIW, out of all these threads, I've never read of anyone correlating the tick to an engine problem or failure. Ford has stated the BBQ tick is a normal part of the engine's operation. Ford's advice is to do...
  10. My Mustang Question

    I haven't studied all the permutations, but I would reverse your process. If in your custom mode, "MyMode", and you then select one of the factory modes, you'll do just what you said: have a menu which reflects options only within that factory mode. I'd set a custom mode, toggle to and stay...
  11. .

    While I have a '22, I didn't notice any change in power. The car has hauled A from day one. No notifications, bells, "dings" telling me otherwise when I crossed 1,000 mi / 1,600 km. For the S550s and prior generations, I'm not aware of any further potential released after passing a certain mileage.
  12. What mileage for your first oil change?

    I did not start mine while stored. IMO, it's better to let it sit, unless you're going to drive the car long enough to come up to full operating temperatures. Inserted is a quote from another thread:
  13. Blue Smoke on start up....

    I have no experience in determining value. In broad terms, I'd say it's a non-issue. Same engine, possibly better (speculating maybe getting a v2Gen4 versus v1). Warranty remains same and continues to cover the engine/car just like before. Ford is making the swap. You've documented things well...
  14. New Car Acceptance Checklist

    One additional item: - Pre-delivery, ask for any documents found inside the car (the build sheet and as-built) be kept Build sheets and as-built documents are left in the interior at the factory; they are often removed and tossed during the dealer inspection. Nice keepsakes. You'll only have...
  15. New Car Acceptance Checklist

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

    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
  17. Front inner wheel well issues

    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.
  18. Front inner wheel well issues

    @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...
  19. Dark Horse HP Alignment Settings

    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...
  20. Storage Time

    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...
