To add to the already excellent info so far,
-You can start with doing the maintenance stuff, easy to do and gets you acquainted with using your tools.
-Youtube has everything these days, go watch a few vids of the job you want to tackle to get an idea of how it will go and what to watch out...
Yes a lot of screws, but upside is they are really sturdy!
I couldnt miss some road debris on the highway some time ago and it made a pretty solid thump. Could not stop there and was fearing the worst.
I was very pleasantly surprised to find a tiny dent on the splitter with no other damage...
From what I understand the corrosion is caused by acid fumes that escape through the battery case at the hole around the battery post.
Some batteries have no problem, some have mild to extreme corrosion.
I guess its a combination of charging system activity and battery sealing at the post...
Hope it resolves!
In case it doesnt, I read that they checked, but IMO sounds like a refrigerant overcharge. I'd suggest getting the high and low side readings and ambient temps at that time and checking against specs, or post them here.
Another thing I'd look at is if there are any codes...
But seriously, it would be more helpful for those looking at similar problems if the solution was there at the original post.
I wasnt sure myself this was for that problem but I had a feeling it was.
Glad you finally resolved that!
I finally got a set of ECS02'S (On another car though, not the Mustang), and recommend them highly.
I tried them back to back with Michelin Pilot Sport 5's on that car (same sizes, different wheel sets) and I found the Continentals noticeably more comfortable, while still being confidence...
