Well boys and girls... It appears that my problem has become much worse. On the way home this evening I was getting on I-10 and going up the entrance ramp when the guy ahead of me slowed down and pulled over. So I gunned it pretty hard going around him in frustration. Not full throttle but at...
On the way into town I confirmed that the TC was on. In fact I don't think I'd ever turned it off but did today just to make sure I knew how and to see if it changed anything. Nope....
Yeah.... I thought so. I was going to go into town for an appointment and check it when I got in the car but I am certain there's no light or warning. I watch my instrument cluster pretty closely.
Yep.... I have Brembo Brakes and the awkward extra gauges which I'm not a huge fan of mostly because I have less one AC vent than my 2020GT Premium had.
OK... If y'all didn't read the link regarding the 2022 GT CS then you might want to give it a look. It DOES look, if I'm reading it correctly, that it has the GT Performance Package and the checklist of stuff in the package is what my CS has...
Wheel hop.... Not really.... Note that the noise and grinding is noticeable even when I drive (forward) out of my driveway and turn sharply on my road under almost no acceleration. I'd feel wheel hop at that point if it was happening because I'm not much above an idle at that point.
A couple...
Someone said I had both rear tires spinning. I don't think that's possible because I'm not using near enough power for both tires to spin. What might be happening is that the tire on the outside of the curve is losing traction because it's suddenly getting all the power and that tire is the one...
I'll pass on that one.... LOL
I DO intend to NOT leave the dealership until at least one of the service techs or the service manager will take a ride with me and let me demonstrate the problem and NO that won't be in front of a semi... :cwl:
Sorry.... I've had a long day... I bought the car new and according to the invoice it does NOT have the PP1 trim. It was a special order that the purchaser couldn't buy when it came in and I got the opportunity to grab it. Except for this differential problem I LOVE this car.
Yes... I have the OEM Pirellis on it and I hate them but that's not what causes this. I admit they're horrible and slip easily but you can hear a grinding type noise in the differential when this happens.
Sometimes when I take off from a dead stop and it's been sitting for awhile it makes...
It's a safety issue because I end up sideways or nearly so in front of approaching traffic and I have to struggle to stay in my lane and not get rear ended.
Managing 450 horsepower in a light car even with the great features and good handling my Mustang has is pretty simple but loosing traction...
That makes sense but I'll give this dealer one more chance because they've been very good to me so far and highly value my business because I've bought 4 new Fords from them in the last 6 years.
OK... I'll preface a bit first.
I had a 2020GT Premium and drove it a bit over 20K miles with no issues like this but a whitetail buck decided to total it so I took the insurance money and bought my current GT California Special Edition and about 2K miles I had a weird problem start showing up...
I had a 2019 F-150 Raptor with the A10... Loved it and had no problems. I'd still have it but the dealership gave me all my money back for it in June of 21 because they needed one and you couldn't get one anywhere. I drove it 25 months and 26K miles.
I had a 2020 Mustang GT Premium and had the...
If it makes you feel any better I have the same problem. I thought it was supposed to be that way for some weird reason.
Mine is a 22 GTCS with 14k miles on it.
Honestly your Mustang is so much better looking than the other two you have absolutely NOTHING to feel inadequate about. Rapid Red RULES and the Vette and the Challenger are butt ugly by comparison.
My first impression was that they were going to use the iron blocks in the Raptor trucks and Bronco's. Would that make more sense? Did they ever come out with Coyote Raptor motors? I know there was some buzz about it.
