  1. Engine Tick Preventive Measures

    Change the oil at 200 miles, then again at 600 miles and then at 2k. Use the MC blend oil and MC filter. Check the catch pan on the first change and look at the metal particles in the bottom. You will be amazed that this crud is flowing throughout the motor.The little factory installed filter...
  2. The end of the GT 350

    Yes but the continuous engine replacements for the GT350 must have added to Ford's decision to cut the model. These hand built motors are not cheap so the many cars with second engines must kill off any profit that they generate. An instant classic if you have received a good one!
  3. Ford says ADM on MACHE can happen, even with deposits

    I cannot imagine paying more sales tax on a dealer's profit ADM. That is just nuts. And Ford and GMs track record on all new technology is pretty sad especially for those early adopters. Sit back and watch the fun....mechanical issues, tech issues. battery fires, and more!
  4. 2019 gt maintenance question

    I found some splash guards / mud flaps that fit a Ford truck so that they are wide enough. I set them flush with the tire sidewalls and low to the ground. Back to the oil changes early on... with the high amount of metallic crud I saw at 220 miles, there was no way that was going to help a...
  5. 2019 gt maintenance question

    There were chunks of metal in the drain pan like I have never seen on any of my new cars. I even took pictures of these in case I had a engine failure down the road. Also, the factory oil filter is 1 inch shorter than the FL500 replacement for some reason. The second oil change had 50% less...
  6. 2020 GT350 Engine Seizure at 206 miles!

    There was another GT350 horror story on this sight last week with the same engine failure. You can go the buy back route or get a replacement engine and demand an extended FORD warranty as other GT350 owners have gotten in writing. The word on the street is that these cars are time bombs so the...
  7. 2019 gt maintenance question

    Do an early oli change to clear out all of the metal crud in the engine. I did my first at 220 miles and was shocked at the amount of metallic crud in the drain pan. I was so shocked that I did additional changes at 600 and 1000 miles with each having less crud in the drain pan. I am at 7K so...
  8. About to travel for work

    Put your car away as planned and have a reason to look forward to going home and driving the fresh car each time. On the job, you will be worrying about it all of the time, taking co-workers for rides, and not being able to wash / take care of it on the road. And yes, low mileage is a nice...
  9. Cross country road trip prep

    Covercraft has a very good front end bra which is about $150. I use it for extended highway driving. You have to carry a spare / mini spare with jack otherwise your trip will be a fiasco waiting for roadside help, on a weekend, in Jerkwater USA. And some Duct Tape is also key!
  10. What is Ford thinking ?

    Chinese part shortage/ supply chain switch out? Just like the change to a single horn for all 2019s and up. 2018s have dual horns OEM.
  11. She's thirsty for oil...

    I agree, head for the exit and either look at another Mustang or change brands. Lots of incentives out there right now and join MCA and use their X-Plan pricing with the factory incentives for a new Ford or Lincoln.
  12. What's broke so far?

    Within the first 7K, leaking radiator, both front struts leaking oil and blown, and a reflash of the A10 auto. Ford took care of these with no problem in my 2018 GT premium. Still love this car!
  13. Ford says ADM on MACHE can happen, even with deposits

    Yes, nothing like paying extra sales tax on the ADM / dealer's profit markup....not me!
  14. Would you put Pirelli PZero Nero’s on your daughters car?

    I had P Zeros on my 2006 GT and got close to 50K on the OEM tires. Replaced these with the same P Zero and these were crap. Replaced two of the replacement tires and these were worse with highway vibration. Pirelli corporate would not help me and the tire dealer gave up and told me to live...
  15. What options to order?

    First join MCA and acquire the excellent X-Plan for great no hassle pricing. Order the Premium package, A10, 19 inch wheels, and the factory spare tire and jack. Skip the PP1 for a daily driver due to the expensive summer staggered Michelin tires and annoying black rims. Save some money for a...
  16. Highest mileage 18-19

    My 2018 has 7500 miles so far and I have driven on dry salt roads here in the Northeast. Three warranty issues so far...A10 software update, leaking radiator, and both front struts were leaking oil / blown seals. Still loving this car. It is a beast and blast to drive!
  17. Ordering a 2020 GT - Should I buy auto or manual?

    The A10 is the second fastest Mustang right behind the GT500 and offers the remote start as part of the package. That is what the $1500 gets you while avoiding the MT-82 Chinese 6 speed transmission. Resale will not suffer as the word on the street is out about this set up.
  18. TPMS Question

    On my 2018, press the power button, toggle the emergency switch three times, the horn honks,the dash display says proceed to left front wheel for training, use the Motorcraft training fob at each wheel valve stem going clockwise, a honk at each wheel confirms a good link, and you are done in 2...
  19. A10 1st Gear Slipping? Anyone?

    Get a dealer software update / reflash to solve this issue. I had my 2018 done and it is so much better with great shift quality and smoothness.
  20. Smelling antifreeze

    Not sure but I bet they two radiators are from the same vendor. My leak was on the driver's side so the smell was more evident when backing into my driveway. If you keep topping off the de-gas bottle with coolant, it has to be going somewhere. I had no drips because the hot coolant was...
