Exactly. As I said somewhere in this thread, there are lots of reasons they could be late. The complaint should be the lack of communication to their clientele.

I worked in an outpatient department of a major hospital for many years. We never intentionally double/over booked appointments. It was a rare day indeed that we got to finish on-time. Occasionally the cause was our "fault". Staffing problems, equipment issues, that sort of thing. Far more often...

I'm curious what makes you believe they are going first come, first served rather than simply overbooking the service past what their staff can handle. Or there was a problem with an earlier appointment that threw everything behind. Or perhaps the had a tech call out? There are a ton of reasons...

Ford sells Mustangs that live and drive for hours in those states. The cars are designed for that. You're simply worrying about something that's already been considered and been addressed in the design. If you want to spend the money and time, go for it, it’s yours. It's just unnecessary for...

Why? You hardly ever drive it. You have no intention of tracking it. It does fine stock the way you currently use it. So, why?

Depends on the outcome you want. Were it me, I might be considering if Lemon Laws apply.

That could also be a symptom of the evaporative emissions purge valve failing. Do you notice it all the time or is it more prominent after a fill-up?

If you intend to mess with the SRS system at all you need to disconnect the battery and be sure the electrical system has discharged. Otherwise you may find that you accidentially activate an airbag. They can be very sensitive.

I was considering a Camero for a time as well. I even rented one for a week in Florida. I agree it was hard to see out of very well. But I also wasn't a big fan of the dash layout. What really put it in the "nope" column for me was how the top went into the trunk and how much space it took up...

Fair enough. I think that we can all agree that older cars were better in a lot of ways. That '57s electrical system probably consisted of a starter, a coil pack a few lights and maybe a radio. And '04 was just ahead of electronics taking over. So, yeah, you could sometimes get lucky. But it...

Automotive charging systems have never been meant to charge a low battery. They're purpose is to power the electrics of the engine and accessories while the car is running and to top up the little bit of charge used to start the engine. Since modern cars are massively electronic you can figure...

Just a couple of thoughts. Have you considered data logging when it happens and sending the log to your tuner? Perhaps he can see something you can't with a scan tool. If you suspect it may be fob related you might consider contacting a good locksmith. If they have the ability to program keys...

You sound frustrated. Take a breath and calm down some. Your frustration will only hinder describing what's going on and we'll need more information to make suggestions. What you're experiencing can have several causes so if you could answer as many of these questions it will help us help you...

I'd agree with most of this except the bit about the battery not being the root cause. I don't agree with that simply because we don't have enough information. All we know from his description is that the battery keeps dying and he jump starts it. The car charging system is not meant to charge a...

If you get into it yourself I'd love to see some pictures of what you find. I've searched and cannot find any listing for parts for the horn button/switch or anything much related to the horn except for the horn itself. I find the airbag, clock spring, levers, switch modules, housing and trim...

Quick question. Isn't the horn button incorporated into the steering wheel airbag? I know it is on my '18 and I don't believe there's any way to service it. OP, if you have a discreet horn button it is probably replaceable. However, I would lean toward it being the clockspring at fault. Have...

What does the fluid feel like? Does it have an odor? Most fluids in a car have a distinct feel and smell.

I put Redlines on mine in late '19/early '20 and they still work like new.

Good point. You can even DIY it. Probably for less than a trip to the mechanic too.

If a headgasket failure is suspected you want a leak down test not a compression test. That's the definitive test for a headgasket leak. Sometimes you can pull the plugs and, using a borescope, see evidence of coolant in a cylinder. Things like very clean pulg porcelain, piston tops that appear...
