Safety. Consider your custom mode might involve something akin to track mode (with Traction Control disabled). Someone else uses the car (family member, Ford Tech, etc.) with your custom settings active, and...you get the idea. Defaulting to Normal ensures whomever initially gets behind the...

^ These. Early on driving my car, something seemed odd. I wasn't aware of the feature, but could tell the brakes were holding certain times (pointed "up" on a hill or slope). Scrolling through the menus, I found it. And turned it off. Hill Assist is enabled by default. I prefer to drive...

Last year was the first with my car, the first Winter in storage. Did virtually everything the OP did. Last November, I'd just crossed 1000 mi / 1600 km. - Full tank of fuel - Stabil - Full detailing, inside and out - Inflated tires to 40 psi, 2.75 bar - Did not set parking brake (stored...

There've been at least two reported instances of challenges in the last year. Best practice is to remove anything "racy" (stickers, badges, lanyards, etc.), anything that might give a whiff of "racing" before taking in. If asked, "I only use the car on the weekends, for carrying groceries and...

Full synthetic, Pennzoil Ultra Platinum "PUP", 5W-30. There are a lot of great oils out there. 1) Find something that meets or exceeds requirements, 2) use it consistently, 3) follow the maintenance schedule 4) always perform a complete warmup before any spirited driving, 5) don't abuse the...

It's a UPR type for my 2022. Correct: Members have confirmed the S650 is using a traditional metal pan and plug. I'd expect the aftermarket to field S650 versions as soon as it's possible.

Many do their initial at a 1000 miles / 1600 kilometers. Skye is a weekend/Holiday car and not a DD. I did my initial at 1265 mi / 2035 km. Leaning forward to Winter storage, I completed my second this week at 2546 mi / 4100 km. I think it's a good practice to accomplish the first around a...

Production was halted very early on for identifying and correcting some specific engine issues, but I never read a definitive statement as to what the problem was. There's a big difference between "valve cover gasket" and "valves" or "valve guides". Something involving the keyword "valve" was...

As a former user of Chemical Guys, I'd advise you to look elsewhere. Chemical Guys has a new product of the week, every week, which appears to be the same as last week. There's a large amount of overlap amongst items. The line/s are confusing. It isn't always clear what the best use of a...

I have AE. When decelerating and especially in Sport Mode, I'll get crackling and popping. :inlove: Does the mode driven in make a difference in what you're hearing? Can you post an audio?

After taking receipt, did you reset the trip/mileage info with a full tank, to start a new baseline? Or is some of the previous information still in the system? During transport and checkout, the car was doing a lot of starting, stopping and idling.

I feel it drains more completely when at a warm temperature. The oil flows better. Any particles suspended in the oil are more likely to make the move and join the rest of the flow. The S550 filter goes in at a 45-degree angle. While I couldn't completely pre-fill it, I got it about half full...

Can't speak to the DH, but for those that have removed them from the Mach, it's straightforward: catch an edge, lift and pull. The vinyl material is somewhat stretchy. I have not read an instance where someone lifted paint while doing so. It does seem easier to remove the when the car is newer...

Beautiful car. I was gonna say, looks like you're doing pretty well. But now I understand the need for a quick path to another ride. 650s are hitting dealer lots now. A dealer order or customer car which didn't get bought could be the way ahead. :please:

https://www.mustang7g.com/forums/threads/latest-mustang-production-key-commodity-constraints-total-retail-unscheduled-orders-9-25-23.158502/ Two of your options are confirmed constrained: 1) Performance Package 2) Recaros I cannot speak to the eight months. The dealer is probably padding...

It's not unheard of. The dealer needs an allocation. That allocation has to be picked up and later scheduled. Some options have waits or are constrained. And there's delivery. While Flat Rock isn't currently impacted, the on-going UAW strike isn't helping. Could you give us some insight on your...

Do not have an answer. More questions and what-ifs than anything else. With respect to the GT, my interest would be in 1) increasing the volume of air approaching the MAF/TB and 2) any change in cooling effects. If you look at the stock GT grille, and then the RTR grille, notice how neither...

Agree with locking the car when not in use, for 1) security and 2) helping prevent the car from seeking out and pinging the fob, putting an unnecessary drain on the battery. To compliment this, purchase faraday pouches, to help prevent cloning and relay attacks. Fobs have a range of close to 30...
