  1. My new Mustang GT has annoying issues.

    You didn’t catch this on the delivery? Why would you take delivery of a brand new car that frankly is not cheap and not check out all the features before leaving? Here’s why I ask: If you discover this on a test drive, the sales staff will browbeat the service department to fix it to make...
  2. What are your thoughts on the interior of the S650? Specifically the screens

    Honestly, Ford cannot win here. If they did this, the Mustang buyers who live in climates where humans were meant to live would be whining and crying ‘why doesn’t PP come with Pilot Cup or Trofeos?’ I do think it would be nice if they offered tire options - not size, just wear/stickiness -...
  3. How is the A10 holding up with the Whipple?

    I think @LethalPerformance has been rocking the 10R80 with a whipple for some time, maybe they would be willing to comment?
  4. How does warranty service work?

    And not to be a doomsayer, but... Generally speaking, if you ever have to invoke the lemon law from your state, if a loaner is provided or coverage for a rental is offered, the time the car is “down” for repairs won’t count towards the ‘triggering’ time value in the statute. IOW, let’s say your...
  5. Possible transmission issue for automatic ?

    I agree with @Skye Notice your shifts are close to 3k rpms each. The computer has decided that its inputs when you are in 4th aren’t commanding an upshift.
  6. Maintenance intervals

    Sooo.... You’re saying that the throttle isn’t a binary switch? who knew...
  7. Suspension noises Dark Horse

    you can use the stock scissor... oh wait. low profile floor jack, unweight the wheel, use channel locks to remove. Easy PEASEY.
  8. steering , exhaust-----ridiculous

    Not to get all puritanical on you or anything but you’re not getting ANY car with ‘track’ exhaust as the default, it would never pass government regs. Also, you shouldn’t be injudiciously driving everywhere in track exhaust mode. We like it, legions of soccer moms don’t. Like @Oiled said ; 2...
  9. Suspension noises Dark Horse

    Have you removed the urethane spacers from the front springs? The ones that PDI are supposed to remove, but are only actually removed about 50% of the time...
  10. Maintenance intervals

    I’d comment: Pay attention to the manual but use common sense. I haven’t yet checked the Mustang, but the F150 doesn’t have a diff service scheduled for like 100k miles or some ridiculous amount like that. Transmission, transfer case, etc similar. The problem with following that generous of...
  11. Rotary Forged vs Forged

    yeah, when we hit, we hit hard - 60mph. I was nervously gazing at the TPMS display for about 10 minutes but it held. We already replaced it. I think forged Mustang wheels are cheaper FWIW. This specimen is $700 new.
  12. I need a quiet exhaust. Quieter than quiet mode.

    I’m not being snarky here: it may be far less expensive to use AirPods in conversation mode with noise cancelling.
  13. WAL and Seat Belt Display Help

    Awesome! glad you got it working as expected.
  14. Has anyone noticed hood lift?

    True, but you have to remember that you’re driving a machine superior to about 85% of the vehicles you’re sharing the road with, and maybe more. IOW, you may well be a well trained, skilled, track capable driver in a track capable car, but the people you’re sharing the road with are largely...
  15. "Hands on the Wheel" Alert đŸ€Ź

    There are 2 consequences to “ignoring” this spurious alert I’m aware of, but there may be more 1) you get the ubiquitous keep hands on wheel dash alert 2) Later, you get a FULL VOLUME chime and warning to keep your hands on the wheel. This interrupts music / radio. I got this sequence on a...
  16. Has anyone noticed hood lift?

    There are pockets of the NE US that are very friendly to high speed, but they are scarce. MASS turnpike, sections of I-95. I was on the MA Pike in the 2000’s. Speed limit was 65, I was being flashed out of the way for passers at 80 and they were not dawdling. But, in general the US East...
  17. WAL and Seat Belt Display Help

    Wait... in the list of gauges you have to display, do you still have the seat belt status specified? That’s something you eliminate or select via your gauges option in the main gauge display. Just de-select it. that’s not a FORSCAN issue, you’re telling the car you want to see that as a...
  18. Rotary Forged vs Forged

    This is what happened to my wife’s Lincoln in a construction zone around San Antonio. A pot hole crater strike at 60mph. Tire pressure was around 36 psi. Despite how it looks, this held air. It was a pretty penny to replace and the ride was compromised after this, you could feel the vibes in...
  19. Has anyone noticed hood lift?

    Some movement appears to be expected, but adjusting the stops has helped mind calm a little. I noticed on the ride home from the stealership on TX130. The speed ‘limit’ is 85mph but 90 is the slow traffic in the right lane, 100-105 is the passing lane - I’ll call it “cusotmary” speed. I was...
  20. WAL and Seat Belt Display Help

    I went back and checked where I found this and there’s some newer/subsequent info for folks wanting different iterations of this. I think you only got a partial update done. I would restore to original values first, DO NOT try and mod this. See this post: #160 you can...
