A sticker will not last the life of the car. Especially down south. This will just be a problem down the road again. It’s not a fix.

It’s pretty on brand for GM to issue a band-aid and not fix the actual problem. https://gmauthority.com/blog/2022/08/gm-issues-fix-for-gmc-terrain-excessive-headlamp-glare-recall/

I’m gonna hurt everyone’s feelings. I run 87. Always have, always will. My mk7.5 GTI ran 150,000 miles on 87 and it was fine. Never had to carbon clean it, and the engine was fine. Car got rear ended and totaled. Ran fine. Did 93 do different? Yea sure. But it was used as a highway commuter...

I’ve had two closeout experiences. One was solid, got some nice 265/35R20 summer Yokohama tires for $110/each. On the other hand, I got some Michelin A/S touring tires for my wife’s car on closeout and the date codes were almost 5 years old and I had to warranty them out less than 6 months in...

If you can’t take it to an alignment shop that has this information, this should at least be able to get you back to factory settings. I don’t know why people say it’s in the manual, it certainly isn’t in the US. If it’s a European thing I’m jealous.

Hampton Roads represent. Can’t wait till the damn HRBT is done. I telework most days, but 22 mile round trip city driving is getting me ~ 16mpg total. If I hit all green lights on an easy morning I can see up to 22. No faster than 45 really. When I drove it to work from the last place I...

Idk, I like that this will be the last “analog” type car I’ll own. I will not replace the cluster to the digital dash as I really dig the whole plane theme with the toggle switches and that the speedo says “Ground Speed”. I know the newest true analog mustang was 2004, since 2005 they have been...

Sucks to hear, but understandable. I remember when your thread popped up. I was hoping for a better outcome. What are you going to replace it with?

OP Mustang did all the work already https://www.opmustang.com/store/p7/BG_PRODUCTS_COMBO_KIT_2015_-_2024_MUSTANG_-_Transmission_and_Rear_Axle_Fluid_%28In_Stock%29.html#/

The Mach 1 is peak “GT” S550. It has all the good bits from the GT350/GT500 and the best modern manual trans in a car. If it’s a manual, I’m not sure I’d give it up unless I just couldn’t physically drive it. If it’s an auto……I’d still probably keep it. I’ve just got a factory power 2016, and...

With you mentioning feeling it in the seat it’s probably the rear tires being overly aggressive. I do not care for the driving dynamics of the G2’s. They’re a cheap and decent enough tire but you get what you pay for.

If you have tires with a center rib that’s very wide and aggressive that will have a lot to do with tramlining. They kind of suck up painted lines like you describe. Out of the 3 summer tires I’ve had, the stock pirellis performed the best on overall driving characteristics. The Yokohamas and...

I’d be fine with a Falcon Wagon with a Mach 4 trim level. I’m looking at a Bronco next year to bring my GT out of daily duty again, but I think I’d rush to the dealer if they had a manual optioned wagon. The patent did state a ton of ambiguous uses.

Unloaded means no pads or hardware. You get the caliper and that’s it.

I guess it also has to deal with culture in a way. Like where I come from, the garage is for cars. Because weather. But I’m one of the few people in the neighborhood that actually uses their garage that way. Only me and the other S550 on the street use it for parking. Where everyone else uses...

I knew you guys are tight on space but dang. I’ve got the smallest garage in the neighborhood haha. So I guess the answer to your question would be no, even if I park right I can’t open the door all the way. I should have taken a picture of the MX5 when we had it, it felt like the garage was a...

It’s tight but not terrible. Just don’t plan on working in the garage with the car in there. You also need to get creative with storage. 8 foot wide door, garage is about 12 foot wide total.

I’ve found age will always do more damage than miles. That being said, how you use the car will also dictate replacement. When I was driving 50,000 miles a year in my GTI I replaced the struts/shocks every 100,000. Honestly they were still good, but I liked changes and couldn’t keep it the...

Adopted one, ended up having two kittens. One of them especially has nothing going on up there.

Cats, mostly because we couldn’t give a dog the proper attention.
