Up until a month ago the difference between stereo and surround was lost on me. Everything was biased to the right side at all times because of single side deafness, so it really made no difference to me, I couldn't appreciate the system in the car.
But now with my cochlear implant on the left...
I did it and had a great time! Learned a lot about road course driving in a short time, and when the instructor took me for a lap at the end of the day realized that I wasn't even close to getting the full performance out of the Mustang. It's worth it in my opinion.
I plan to go back for the 2...
I kept getting a CEL every time I used an underbody spray. After several visits to the dealership, and sensor replacements, they finally figured out it was a split in the wiring to the cat/O2 sensor. After replacing/repairing the wiring I haven't had the issue again.
I'd like an update to stop overwriting things. Every update I have to fix "my color" and my oil life monitor always resets to 100% it's a good thing I also track the mileage since the OLM becomes useless with a OTA update.
I have the performance package on my 2024 so have the Pirelli summer tires (and a set of wheels and snow tires for the winter). On July 3 I picked up a nail in the edge of one tire, too close to the sidewall to repair so had to replace. Of course no one carries the summer performance tires in...
I got new tires, Continental Contact Sport 2
On July 3 I picked up a screw in my stock Pirelli PZero right on the edge so it wasn't repairable. Of course no one keeps summer tires in stock, or in the performance package size (255-40x19 front and 275-40x19 rear)
So I had to get something to...
I fixed the puddle lamp today. Because the dealer sent it in saying that the entire mirror had to be replaced, and the guy who did the PPF on the car did a terrible job on the mirror, they denied coverage. Bubbles in the edge of the PPF, and a small chip from when he trimmed the PPF, led Ford to...
Had it in to get the brakes inspected and do a flush and fill on the brake fluid. Front brakes were fine, rear were less than 50% pad so I had them replaced so that the car is ready for the track.
I'm supposed to be at Gingerman next month for the Mohawk Track Experience but going to miss the...
I have Pirelli Scorpion, only because they couldn't get the Blizzak for me when I needed to get a new set. The car handles fine. I don't add any weight to the car and have never felt the need to do so. Besides, adding that weight to the trunk sets up issues - you increase the stopping distance...
I drive my performance package GT, with the oil cooler, year round and have no issues here in SE Michigan. Through several blizzards this past year on a 25 mile drive to my office on the expressway and not a problem.
And as said, the only modification for the winter has been to swap to my snow...
If you are asking if Ford is going to compensate your somehow for modifications to your car if it is taken on "lemon law", short answer: NO.
Ford has nothing to do with your modifications and is only responsible for the car that Ford built.
We were in the 4th of July parade yesterday, (right behind a 1959 Pontiac Bonneville convertible that was really nice). Lots of compliments and thumbs up from people on the parade route. At the announcer stand as we were coming up they called out "leave some space" and then "the crowd wants to...
It's really hard for me to tell anything about the settings since I am deaf on the left side! So everything is always biased to the right side of the car no matter what setting I use.
However, July 21 I am getting a cochlear implant on the left so I'm really curious if after it is activated on...
Well it was several years ago (2012) and I haven't had any reason to talk with him about it since, so maybe I got some of his statements mixed up in my memory of the conversation.
In any event, I know that he didn't want a car sitting around waiting for the right buyer to show up who could do...
The reason that a dealer doesn't offer anything "extra" for modifications was explained by a friend of mine who is a dealer. When he goes to sell the car it is looked at as whatever the VIN reports by the lender, and the modifications mean nothing for value to the lenders.
So the car sitting...
I'm sure that they will look for something to indicate an impact, but they already looked at it when I stopped in, and there is no evidence of impact on the mirror. I looked it over when I got home to see if someone had messed with it while it was parked.
But I agree, people will do something...
