Had a few drips on the floor during hot track days. Was excess fluid venting.

While the A/C clutch may disengage at WOT, as soon as you lift ~1/4” off the throttle, it reengages. Either the clutch fails or the belt shreds. If the A/C belt shreds, it sometimes takes the drive belt with it.
i always turn the HVAC off on the track. I haven’t lost an A/C yet, on any car.
Still have the 2016 GT350 I ordered and was delivered in March 2016. Took it to COTA one month later:
And TWS a few months later:
Hard to believe it will be 10 years old.
That’s some serious old school! 😂
Guess that makes me old as I know exactly what you meant….
However, these housings are plastic and the lights are computer controlled LEDs.
My 2016 GT350 camera went bad a few years ago and was replaced in a recall. Just received a letter that it is being recalled again….
Nothing new on the 2020 GT500 (yet). Camera was already recalled a few years ago. Still works fine. Except the directional lines are gone.
Those various idler pulleys make a squeaking sound when going bad.
Remove the belt and spin each by hand to see if there is an issue. They are cheap to replace. Check the alternator bearings at the same time. They have similar bearings as as the pulleys.
Any auto parts house stocks those...
“Contributing to the amazing performance of the Ford Mustang GTD is its TREMEC transmission, the TR-9080 DCT dual clutch transmission.”
This is the same nomenclature used for the C8. Presume a lot of commonality with that version.
Just bought 9 qts via the Ford Parts app and selected my local Lincoln dealer who only charged ~$25/qt and no shipping (store pickup). Used some old points to boot. Total cost to me was $165.
