The organic pads on my friends older mustang cover the rims with black dust. The oem pads on my 2024 Tt leave nothing on the rims/tires. A bit of road dust the odd time but no brake dust. Chage the pads.
.....yeah sure. Friend has a C8. Will is beat my GT - of course, but then he drives a clown car that looks like s child's transformer toy only with $hitttier characteristics. Couldn't care less about it's (C8's) performance, it's still a clown car. Cheap copy of crap euro fluff. No matter what...
@RCFMustang ...... great conversation starter. There is only one sane option for a Mustang windshield replacement that is OEM. The cheaper ones are junk. If you own a convertible (I do) then windshield selection is even more crucial. I replaced the windshield on my former 2014 Mustang...
@krisk ...... we changed oil on cars we rallied and raced and our racing marine engines after every race. Ford and GM oil count downs used to be based on time. If they are now considering other data points like RPMs, shift points and temperatures that would be awesome and actually reflect the...
@MegaMan ......and the best part is, at the end of the day we get to drive off in a Mustang EB/GT/DH .....and the other guy is driving away in a corvette .....a knock-off wanna be euro car.
@HeyMoe! ..... Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. There are several interesting discussion points. The new "salting" of roads should be called "brining" of roads. The liquid brine they now spray stays on the roads (and subframes) longer. The "old" salt crystals were...
@Cauf E. Bean ..... on my 2024 GT with 'high" package I have adaptive cruise control and an awesome wireless connectivity, Android and Apple voice search. More than I need on a sports/muscle car. All that other stuff is on our SUV.
@AZ_Ryan .....actually the DIYvan.com repair IS waterproof ......and "dude" $100 to prevent frame damage on a Mustang GT is worth every penny.....still waiting to see the cost of the new Ford repair.
@Kaps ..... I agree 100% .....water WILL run down inside that patch if its not sealer and then run along the inside frame members. At least Ford has acknowledged the problem but the fix is IMO not nearly as good as DIYvan.com. $100 and 10 minutes a side. Inexpensive, fast and effective.......and...
@AZ_Ryan ....... wait for it - the price from Ford for the new kit. I would be very surprised if you get that for less than $100 .... and it's still a screw-on.
The answer is simple. Stay away from aftermarket "toy" intakes. If you're supercharging or turbocharging that's a completely different story. Claims of significantly better "breathing" are IMO incorrect. Claims of HP increases are IMO total B$. Dyno pulls showed no difference. IMO you are far...
@bfets ..... your patch looks fine.....but there is absolutely no problem with the JB Weld. That product is super easy to use and will never let go. The material would let go some where else before the patch itself let go and the best part is that the DIYvan.com patch becomes part of the liner...
@Gregs24 ..... yes underfilling at the factory "could" cost more money in warranty ..... but that's what dealer PDI is for. Checking fluids is high on the list.
@Bill Dezen ..... no you cannot reduce the locking force as it would put the top and you at risk.....and if it ever came up at speed was caught by the wind and detached you'd have no insurance. Can she purchase some kind of wrist brace that will attach with velcro and be easy to get on and off...
@Iceman28.... good catch - and - you are 100% correct - I definitely did NOT have an 10R80 in my 2014. My comment was intended to say ...... IF IF IF the tranny dip sticks are the same then to be REAL careful as in my 2014 you had to remove the "plastic-like" cap/nut and it had a small dip...
