What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

[Craig Brown]

Look for heat shields lose. use a soft rubber mallet under the car and start tapping on things to see if anything rattles.

I've been noticing a bit of coloration on my heater inlet hose. The odd thing is when I checked all of the local and national auto parts store chains nearby, none of them have this part listed. Only the Ford dealership had it in their books, but not in stock. Here's the part number.

I've done that a few times, I thought I fit gold with the spacers because they vibrated like crazy.

The next thing I want to check is the aluminum plate between the engine and trans.

Replaced the E brake boot and handle. Now it matches the rest of my car. Oh, I learned I suck at tinting windows. Thought it would be easy, but don't do it with any kind of wind. Just saying.

Is this a Ford part?

Is your car a manual transmission? If it is a manual, that plate is steel and there are two bolts that mount it to the bottom of the transmission,

As title suggests, this thread will be for 2015 Mustang owners to post pics what they worked on today, show off what they have done to their car recently, etc. Share and it might inspire some ideas for others to do on their Mustangs too.

I'll be getting a tint first thing in the morning and perhaps a car wash, will post pictures shortly!

So, what did you do to your 2015 Mustang today?

One of our customers added a cold air intake today. Hates the factory exhaust, because it's so damn quiet.

Is this a Ford part?

No the handle is CF and I found it on Amazon. $40. The boot was also found on Amazon by a US maker. $60.

If you can't find the part from ford there is a Ford parts web site I have used and I was able to get what I was looking for.

Did a smoke test today and no leaks anywhere. It held 5LB and never dropped. I bought a Ancel smoke machine, and it works great. $165.00 It has its own pump. I give it 5 out of 5 stars. (Ancel S3000)

Well it was yesterday, but I used it to help keep the next generation into performance cars. We had a large family gathering to celebrate my mom's 90th. People form several states came and were going back and forth between our two houses all day, and quite often the Mustang in my garage was drawing attention.

My sister's grandson is 17 and is a champion snowmobile racer for his age bracket on the national circuit. I let him take it for drive on the back roads. He's a very considerate kid and was driving with caution. I encouraged him to get on it and he did a few, and did some revving returning to the party. He was beaming.

Next was one of my grandaughters who's 20. She grew up doing carting and currently is on sports car team. She's been able to run laps on Road Atlanta in a Boxster. She took off in it with no hesitation and holy smokes is she a driver! Returning back my neighbor, a car guy, was walking down the street and she revved and waved going by him. She had a blast.

It was a really great day for mom and the Mustang got to be part of the fun.

Congrats to your mom, I lost my mom two years ago and she was 97. I hope you have many more years with your mom. I didn't do anything with the Mustang, but I ordered a new tool to help me with the misfire issue. I did a smoke test and I had no leaks, so now I have a scan tool coming. Professional grade Mucar 892BT with this I will be able to isolate injectors, spark, STFT all while the car is driving, I will be able to see everything in real time. This scanner has lifetime data updates. I have a Innova 3160 scanner, but it is old and not of the same caliber as this new one. I only paid $479.00 and if any of you ever wanted to have the same quality of a scanner that the dealers use this is worth looking into. Go online and check it out. There are a ton of videos about the Mucar 892BT by mechanics that are impressed by the speed and quality of function of this tool. Really, look it up!
