Great experience, write-up and photos. Thanks for posting.

Sounds like a normal engine? Nothing stands out to me. It does sound like the car is in an enclosed area; this can affect the direction and intensity of what's being heard. Changing locations might clarify the noise of interest. You may notice the following, now or over time: - Fuel pump. When...

I'm refreshing myself on the following threads. There's an absolute hard limit that all engines have. This limit cuts fuel to the engine. Several mention in these threads the Manual Transmission cars have a hard limit 2-300 RPM lower than the Automatics. I suspect this is because of shifting...

That one and another: "Remove wheel chocks!". :giggle: Have a good week everyone! :thumbsup:. :fistbump:.

Different generation, but I fabricated a simple extension of the existing pigtail, then ran that to the front. There's a gap in the headlight area the cable runs past. I use a small piece of foam, wrapped around the extension, to protect it from getting nicked. The extension uses the same gauge...

Ford is still taking orders for 2026. Production can continue as late as September. A Canadian spec. IIRC there are Canadian-only production runs; this might be why the order remains unscheduled. As this generation will continue into the 2027 Model Year, they wouldn't stop making 26s until...

There's a few variables I'm not aware of. If this was a factory install and if the car has less than 36,000 mi / 57,000 km, I'd return to the dealer and open a case. The existing factory warranty should cover the repair. If not... The car now has a Whipple, and I suspect an aftermarket tune or...

I don't see the size of the dealership as a determining factor in pricing. Buying a vehicle can be like shopping for insurance: there are a lot of variables that affect the price and experience. I've purchased two new vehicles in the last five years. In both, I started with by trolling internet...

People seeing the thread can check their vehicles and chime in. But I also think it's related more to the work that was accomplished before. Maybe the lowering of the vehicle changed the alignment of several pieces. Maybe people working on the front end above and below. IDK. Modern vehicles are...

Second the comment on lotions, potions and liquids used on hands, any cleaning agents used in the interior. Sanitizers in-particular can wreak havoc with plastics, coatings and other finishes. Anything from interior door hands, to shift knobs and buttons. Many household cleaners can be harsh on...

https://www.motorcraftservice.com/Purchase/ViewProduct If not aware of the site, Ford offers procedure information the dealer techs use. They offer 3-day access for $30. With that, you can download as much as you like. The files are listed as individual tasks and references, not as a book or...

One of our sponsors, Dragracingwheels.com, created the attached; it might help in making offset decisions.

The Owner Manual specifies the following for Eco and 5.0 engines: WSS-M2C961-A1, 5W-30 The Ford requirement translates to API SP and ILSAC GF-6A. Checking Motorcaft, Valvoline, Castrol and O'Reilly's oil brands, I could not find a dino oil that was API SP, GF-6A and 5W-30. Most conventional...

A dealer would not want to get involved because it changes the vehicle's baseline, what the car was sold as. It creates a series of liabilities they'd not want to be associated with. The OP has a connect for the physical replacement of the gears. Another shop in the area specific to tuning or...

They are different in shape. One is square. The other square, with a corner cut. They fit different bumper assemblies. One is for the DH, the other GTs. Given the part number, I'd poke around eBay from time-to-time.

I feel 1000 mi / 1600 km is a good time for the initial oil change, yes. Break-in oil is not required for these engines. Follow the recommended weights in the owners manual. There are a lot of great brands available. Select an oil that meets or exceeds Ford's recommendations. Enclosed are...

Disappointed those items failed so soon. No excuse to see them leaking so early. Way to early. We can empathize. Some (insert make here) dealers have horrible reputations. Agree with others: use the warranty. Not only for costs, but to prevent any washing of hands if future issues develop. At...

To clarify, if you check all four wheels' pressures on-screen, is it only the one wheel that is acting up? Does any wheel register pressure consistently? Does the fob work to lock and unlock the car? If so, the vehicle's receiver and wiring are good. The fob and TPMS transmit to the same...
