    So glad I went with these wheels on this car..........................
  5. This Just Got Real!

    Mustang is now out from under its cover, trading places with the XR8. After working just about every weekend for more than 10-years, I'd come home so tired that I'd just crash with no desire to go anywhere. I'm told that's not healthy, but you have to do what you have to do. So, it's nice...
  6. Australia - 24C35 S650 Recall and Service Action Lookup

    That's some good work on your part there. It's a shame that the only way to get communication out of Ford is to put a high-profile media personality in front of them.
  7. S650 Mustang EcoBoost Review

    Follow up video of the EcoBoost, pitted against the i30 N.......................... I know pops and bangs aren't to everyone's taste, but the i30 N has had some effort put into making it sound distinctive.
  8. Triton Protect Ultimate Ceramic Car Care System / What car wash to use with it?

    What you are experiencing here is an incompatibility between the coating and the wax element within the soap. The coating's natural tendency is to reject the wax, which then leads to a streaky/smeary finish. That's not to say all wax's are incompatible with ceramic coatings, but most of the...
  9. Aussie S650 Paint protection and detailing thread

    Is this for Darkhorse seats? I haven't used Carpro Fabric, so check out the videos below. With these products, use them as a safety net and not a total impenetrable force field. You still need to clean and deal with spills as soon as possible, but the coating gives you a grace period and helps...
  10. DFB's Detailing Garage

    A few years ago, I bought a small selection of AMMO NYC products to try, this being before AMMO Australia was set up. With Hydrate being one of his signature products, I ordered two bottles of it to try. Hydrate is very different to all other drying aids on the market, Larry terming it as a...
  11. What's In ALM's Garage?

    When I placed the deposit for my S650 in September 2022, the next day the Ming Mole rang with much gusto to congratulate me on my new car and had I thought about ceramic coatings, window tinting and dash cams. I was like, "honey, the car is a pre-order and it will be at least 12-18 months away...
  12. What's In ALM's Garage?

    Just be grateful you didn't spend the $120 for the 5-liter bottle, broke my own rules on that one..................................................... :facepalm: I tried a variety of methods, spraying direct, spraying into the towel, less product, more product, different...
  13. What's In ALM's Garage?

    Did you have the oil changed? Back when Ford had good supply of Mustang's, I would occasionally get a like-for-like service loan car. Been a long time since that has happened though.
  14. What's In ALM's Garage?

    After seeing Matt talk speak so enthusiastically about Trace-less over the last 12-months, I felt like it would be a safe bet, so I ordered the 5-liter bottle of it. Sadly, considering the price, it just hasn't lived up to expectations, and not from a lack of trying. Taken from the Sin-Bin...
  15. This Just Got Real!

    My Ford Performance welcome pack arrived today........................ Also arriving, a fluid extractor. This particular one has a 9.5-litre capacity to account for the both the Ranger and XR8, which hold 8.6 and 8.5 respectively. This one also features both pump action and a compressed air...

    Kranzle KHD10/122 Oil Change I’ve previously documented the oil change process on the mobile K1152 (K1122), but in this instance, I’m featuring the KHD10 that I wall mounted back in June 2023. After 18-months of solid use, this will be its first oil change. The owner’s manual instructs to...
  17. DFB's Detailing Garage

    Twenty-five years ago, I was enjoying the freedom that came from a driver's license and my first car. My parents helped me with my first car. After searching far and wide looking at various Falcon's, eventually this 2001 AU III Fairmont sedan popped up at the local Ford dealer. After a test...
  18. DFB's Detailing Garage

    That R-Spec suspension tune is much better at speed, be that cruising on the highway, or in higher speed cornering. It's the low-speed ride that takes getting used to. They did slacken the ride for the Sprint, renaming it S-spec and making the car "breath" with the road rather than smashing into...
  19. DFB's Detailing Garage

    I have these, but they weren't strong enough for these particular clips - Pick Set – Detail Factory Detail Factory - Detailing Pick Set : Amazon.com.au: Automotive The pry spot for those clips was hidden under the trim panel, so no risk in this situation. Every make and model have their...
  20. DFB's Detailing Garage

    I also replaced a couple of parts on the Ranger today. The first was the driver's side scuff panel, which for some reason had popped out of place. I removed and attempted to re-seat it, only to discover the two outboard clips had broken. More great Ford quality....................... After...
