Dear Screamer, is there any chance you could share more info on what parts you ordered and where/how they were installed (yourself, private mech, dealer)? If you've already posted this somewhere, could you post the link?
Hey I think I'm pretty mild mannered and reasonable too! So I'll take a different approach, hope for some helpful advice from elite posters.
I have a 2016 tech, which I absolutely love to pieces (even with the rattling shifter in second and the loud piston slap and the weird panel gaps and...
Ya know, I sincerely admire the tenacity and relentless demand for evidence basis from a few contributors here, but after a certain point the constant incredulity and dismay over repeated experiences by actual people who only want a straight forward, non-freebie solution to a widely-reported...
the point about Ford wanting to keep the price down might have merit, but the car was already significantly cheaper than its competition (e.g., high end camaro, corvette) and would have remained so even with the proper tran and diff. I think it was most likely just a really really dumb decision...
I'm really not frothing at the mouth for vengeance here, I only wish there were some reasonable solutions available that also didn't void the warranty, ones that I also could pull off using a trusted mechanic or maybe even a dealer. I don't have the expertise or time to do it myself. And I'd...
frustrating and false? I can understand why someone might have this pov based on what is now known about the tech vs track packs and that has already been beaten to death. If one goes back to the ordering brochures as well as the Ford-sponsored gt350 web sites from late 2015/early 2016...
as others have mentioned, if you haven't gone through the process of purchasing a GT350, especially during 2015-2016, you probably don't really know what info was actually available, how it was available and when. From my own experience, I am fairly certain most dealers, and most sales people...
fantastic video. definitely a great demonstration of how 'speed happens.' Driver is so relaxed, until the very end.
..Passenger -- get a helmet, thats crazy.
agree with lemers and murdock 2112. ..However, I'll admit I did do what research I could in advance and still went with the tech pack offering, which they said was "most" of the Track pack. Nobody with automotive and track expertise that I consulted with believed the tech pack car wouldn't be...
same experience here. After a track day however you realize how 'dump truck-like' Brembos and the like actually sound in other cars. A track day might even help convince the squeal is actually kind of cool, sort of. Admittedly I'd also prefer not to have driving around town, but the GT350...
4 months, ~6000 miles, '16 tech pack. Never owned a car so consistently fun to drive. No major issues, but most of the minor stuff that everyone has already beaten to death - piston slap, shifter rattle, track limp mode, brake pad squeal, mediocre sound system, etc.. Will resolve rattle with...
why isnt there some way to get the extra bits Ford already uses for their track pac that are left out of the tech pack? I don't understand why this would be so hard?
