Yeah, I can find Motorcraft now, and the $10.00 Prestone Purple stuff I use in my Mopar's. Mopar's OAT concentrate was the same price as their 50/50, $32 bucks, and so I would add distilled water.
Using undistilled water will turn coolant brown, should you add water to OAT coolant. Always use distilled water. Otherwise, coolant does turn darker over time.
I change my Challenger RT and Charger RT Road and Track oil. Biggest pain is lining up the 4 bolts for the belly pan. However, I got the first 2 GT changes on FoMoCo, and I’m so glad. I really don’t feel like messing with the over complicated belly pan, and 10 quarts of oil.
The biggest issue I have still with my GT Premium is the cheap B&O stereo. Even when I upgrade the sub-woofer, and the door speakers, it's lousy. The exterior is good, but the interior could use better materials on the dash, doors, and seats. Ford can find a way to S-can the 2000 RPM Coyote...
I’m surprised you haven’t gotten tons of answers on the 2000 RPM rattle. It’s normal. Ford has issued some bulletin on this, although I can’t quote the bulletin. I do know that the rattle is caused by some kind of lack of lubrication regarding variable cam timing. I don’t like it, but it’s normal.
Brought my car in to a dealership for an oil change. Sure enough, they had no idea what the oily drop could be. In fact, the service guy asked if i had a sunroof. I said, yes, but on my Challenger.
Hey thanks. Is there any charge for my psychoanalysis? I was just curious as the only other thing I had come down from there was the mirror itself: 1992 T-Bird Sport.
That’s why I didn’t include a picture in the first place. You can’t see anything. This was really strange. It was the first time I move the car since November 15. And I thought it was a drop on the outside of the windshield coming from the garage door. If this was adhesive, I wonder what made it...
My 2025 GT, 2200 miles, sat for 5 months until Spring. An oily drop rolled down the inside of my windshield from the rearview mirror housing when backing out of the garage. Everything works. No issues. But what the heck is this?
I would agree with an earlier post about the front bumper, except I think it can be repaired and not replaced. They'll just sell or fix it and sell it on Ebay.
I’m not a defender of dealers and manufacturers, unless it involved the Bailout. An un repaired recall, outside of the required time frame might mean out-of-pocket repairs later on at the very least. Depending on the recall, and I’m not saying the water intrusion recall falls in this category...
I would agree in the old days they never even checked their work. Service is much more dependable now as long as you don’t get the lowest rung doing your oil change.
Up
Not this. I had it done. They removed the wipers and the top call cover. From then on, it’s body sealer, dry, and put things back together. You know, I don’t care who takes their car in for the recall. If you want to risk damage because you’re afraid of risking collateral damage, then...
There's a reason the K&N flows better, and it's because it lets more dirt through. It's believed a dirty K&N filter filters better. Oiling it is a PITA. I would go AFE Blue.
