Bump

I bought my Mach 1 with the Steeda Progressive Sport springs already on the car. I'm considering putting the factory springs back on and just want to get some feedback. My question for those of you who put those springs on your car - what was the difference in ride quality compared to the...

Well, there's a reason you've been on this forum for 5 years and haven't bought a car. 😉

Pretty much all modern automatic transmissions have sealed systems that are designed to go 100k plus on factory fluid. You can of course change it earlier if you want, but its not a maintenance gimmick.

With respect to the fluids, the brake fluid is the only one that's changed based on time not miles (every 3 years). The transmission fluid and rear diff aren't recommended until 150k miles. The coolant isn't recommended until 200k. This is all according to Fords own maintenance schedule. Yes...

You don't polish ceramic coat either. That's the whole point. PPF Is for protection against rock chips. For a declid, it's way over kill and unnecessary. But we're getting off topic anyway, the question was how to remove scratches.

Ok, but a year over due date is hardly a reason to pass over a car. I can guarantee you most on this site have never changed their brake fluid at all.

CAI = cold air intake. I thought Bullitts came with those factory, but I'm not certain. If not, then yours has been added, which means the computer was likely tuned for it. PPF = Paint Protection Film (clear bra for you old schoolers). I wouldn't be hung up on the fluids needing a change...

Looking at the conversion, thats about 36k in US dollars correct? If so I'd say it's a fair price. You can have those rock chips repaired and do PPF over the front afterward. As long as thats a factory CAI and the cars not tuned, I say go for it!

I thought Bullitts have factory CAIs no?

Damn. That car went for $41,800.

There has been a bit of an update. To answer you question, when I previously pushed on the drivers side (it took a bit of force) I was able to get a faint reproduction of the squeak. However, in the last week the squeak has settled down and mostly gone awaway. I went over a speedbump trying to...

Thanks. Lol

My rear springs aren't making noise. Everything is upfront.

Ford uses PS4s at their track attack.

All the above had been verified. Do you have a link for the isolators?

PPF on the decklid is pretty overkill IMO. Ceramic is all you need. As far as removing scratches. You can polish the decklid. Just start nice and easy using a light polish. I believe it has a clearcoat on it. This is mine with ceramic. Water spots and smears come off easy with a good topper.

Same as paint correction anywhere else on the car. What's wrong with it?

So TJ, I'm confused. You're saying the progressives don't come with them, but that I should add them to solve my issue?
