  1. Rattle/buzzing noise, perhaps center arm rest storage console behind the shifter?

    No I have not been able to fix it. Ford dealer took my passenger seat out to replace the seat cover on it. I was hoping for a miracle that it would be some how related to the seat and get fixed by reinstalling the seat, alas no change. I got it on a lift and inspected myself with a good...
  2. Mach 1 Oil Pan Replacement

    Correct, they went back to steel instead of the "composite". If I was in OP's shoes I would try and work a deal for the steel pan, even if I had to pay a bit to make that happen.
  3. WARNING to others, Leather Rip!

    Update, happy customer. Warranty work completed, they fitted a new buckle to the seat and replaced the seat back. Seat back part # MR3Z-6364416-DA, not a cheap item as you see...
  4. Last Chances.... 2023 Mach 1 Available Norm Reeves Ford, Cerritos CA, FJG Auto. Preowned 623 miles

    https://www.normreevesford.com/inventory/certified-used-2023-ford-mustang-mach-1-rwd-2-door-coupe-1fa6p8r00p5501240/ I was there this morning for some warranty work and saw this on the way out. I thought it was a brand new car, turns out pre owned. But for someone looking, this might be your...
  5. Rear deck lid smuge

    hmmmmmmm I don't know what would have caused that. First I'd try "goo gone", then a clay bar, if no luck with those some Turle Wax Polishing Compound You know on second thought, get a Qtip, dip it in lacquer thinner, and rub it across that area to see if it strips it off. Obviously this is...
  6. Difficulty with 2nd gear downshift and reverse (manual)

    Sounds travel a lot farther through cold air, and cold temps on the trans parts at night probably make your noises more noticeable. Try pulling up on the reverse lockout collar on the shifter while in gear. I think you will find that that piece is a significant source of NVH. 2nd gear is my...
  7. Anyone track the M1 at Laguna Seca?

    Stock 255/40R19 FRONT 275/40R19 REAR PS4S
  8. Anyone track the M1 at Laguna Seca?

    Big Willow, and Frontana Roval. Big Willow and Fontana Roval. Good point about the brakes, they already have two track days on them, and a canyon drive. I would change them before hitting laguna. I have never checked my alignment from the factory, so I don't know what it actually is, but for...
  9. HP Wing painted and installed on Non HP Car, color matched by Paint Shop

    The wing was ordered with Gurney flap from Blue Oval, this is the FRP Wing M-16600-FP, the exact same one that comes on HP cars. However, as we have come to discover, Ford will not sell you the wing painted the magnetic grey color for the Mach 1s. Despite our best efforts. It appears that they...
  10. Anyone track the M1 at Laguna Seca?

    I'm being asked to join for an event at Laguna Seca in January or February with some Porsche guys that I have tracked with before at Fontana. One of them is a work colleague and friend. Its a full 335 mile drive to get up there, and I would obviously have to make it an entire weekend type thing...
  11. Mach1 chased by a few beasts

    really like seeing the elevation changes in the track, always adds an extra layer of excitement for me! Nice pictures.
  12. WARNING to others, Leather Rip!

    UPDATE: They will replace the buckle hoping that the part has been "revised" during production so it doesn't happen again. The "seat cover" is a vendor item and will take 1 -2 weeks to get here. They will replace all when they arrive. They were very straight to business on it, didn't fight me...
  13. WARNING to others, Leather Rip!

    Correct, the heated and cooled leather seats do not have that type of panel. In my case I sure wish they did! :)
  14. WARNING to others, Leather Rip!

    Interesting, your buckle is quite low. Mine is much higher. I looked at an S550 for sale to look at the belt and it was similar to mine, the high variety. I have also been looking at a ton of sale adds to for pictures, seems like most are tall, some are short. Anyways here is mine being...
  15. WARNING to others, Leather Rip!

    These are the heated and cooled leather seats, not the Recaros, the car is a premium pkg car, don't know if that makes a difference. listed as EBONY LTHR-TRIM DOVE ACCENT on the window sticker. I know exactly what you are talking about, and I will be equipping the buckles with these. My...
  16. WARNING to others, Leather Rip!

    My car is barely 2 years old, I got it in September 2021, it has ~7,500 miles and already the leather has ripped on the side of the passenger seat! What I determined is that when you fold up the seat back of the passenger seat up to allow passengers easier access to the back seat, the seat...
  17. Second gear hiss on a Mach 1 with Tremec?

    The shifter lockout collar, which you pull up to shift the car into reverse is a significant source of NVH. After reading this thread I tested it on my car, and pulling it up the car sounds cleaner. I didn't notice the hiss before, but by pulling it up it does sound better. I tested it a whole...
  18. Dead Battery Issues

    My car will sit 4 or 6 days at a time. Got it in September 2021, has 7,500 miles now. No battery issues at all something doesn't feel right with your case. My Fob is not stored near the car. I always shutdown all radio AC and all electronics before turning the car off, and lock it with the FOB.
  19. GT350 to Mach 1 - Thoughts?

    Ouch! Glad they are taking care of it, the "racing" check is silly. 2.5 months of downtime sucks no way around that part of it. On another note If I had a magic wand I would have my oil pump replaced with metal gears. Fairly big job so I'm not going to do it, but high HP guys and track rats...
  20. Delusions of grandeur

    Totally correct, and "worthy":wink: question.....How much is too much? Well it all depends on your own personal use case and tolerance. For me the GT500 is overkill for the street, I have not driven one, only speculating from the power output alone. But If I'm honest the Mach 1 and GT can't...
