    Stick with the Orange. Goes great with the Metallic Grey colours. Here's mine. 2017 Magnetic.
  2. BMS reset on 2017 GT

    Yes, I'm sure the kid who fits you a new battery at Supercheap has no idea, and probably the professional mechanic with RACQ doesn't know the process either. The Manual supplied with my 2017 car, which is probably the same as yours, doesn't even mention it, yet the Dealer Service Manual calls...
  3. BMS reset on 2017 GT

    Thanks for that info FrogXA! I'm also now on my 3rd battery and didn't do the reset last time. I don't want to let the car think it now has an 8year old battery, hence my wish to try the reset this time. I wont be able to confirm whether it works as I don't have Forscan. I find it hard to...
  4. BMS reset on 2017 GT

    Yep. Another one of those mystery Mustang things, like the Oil Life calculation that appears to be totally useless! I'm going to run a few days with the new battery while monitoring voltage, then do the hi beam brake light reset thing and see if it makes any difference. Not paying a Ford Stealer...
  5. BMS reset on 2017 GT

    That will reset the battery State of Charge, but no the battery days in service, which is one of the parameters the BMS uses.
  6. BMS reset on 2017 GT

    After doing further research I understand that export models (Euro, UK, Aus) require a diagnostic tool to perform the BMS reset. Doing the hi beam and brake light thing does not guarantee that the reset was successful even though the battery light flash happens. Apparently export models are...
  7. Driver's Seat Repair - Can You Please Check Your Seat For Me?

    Just checked my 2017. Both seats have a pocket and no hard objects are protruding on either of them. I think your dealer is pulling your leg mate!
  8. MAGNETIC S550 MUSTANG Thread

    My 2017 at a local auto museum.
  9. BMS reset on 2017 GT

    It's my understanding that the BMS (Battery Management System) uses the age of the battery to determine the correct charging profile. As the battery ages, the charging voltage may be increased due to deterioration of the battery. If the BMS does not know a new battery has been fitted it may...
  10. BMS reset on 2017 GT

    Does anyone here have any knowledge to share on the BMS reset procedure following battery replacement on a 2017 model GT? The 2017 Owner's Manual page 159 describes battery replacement but doesn't mention BMS reset. The Mustang 2015 Service Manual calls for a BMS reset using a diagnostic scan...

    MAISTO makes a Magnetic S550 based on 2015 model in 1:18 scale
  12. What's In DFB's Cabinet?

    Best way to buy from Bunnings is order online for later pickup, then let them do the running around and finding the product. They will contact you when they have it ready.
  13. Storytime - Craziest encounters y'all have experienced on the road because of your car?

    I have a Magnetic GT. I get the occasional compliment from strangers at the gas station or shops. A couple of years ago my wife and I went to lunch, and driving home along the highway she noticed something like cloth flapping on the windscreen wiper. It soon started to rain and using the wipers...
  14. 2022 GT Tickford : Good buy?

    Those stickers would have to go. I'd feel like an absolute knob driving around with those.
  15. Passenger side valve cover Empty bolt hole?

    Ground connection point for the Flux Capacitor?
  16. Checking oil level. Too high on dipstick.

    Yes, that's my suspicion now too. Been running fine for 2500kms since last oil change. I'll call the dealer today and schedule an inspection.
  17. Checking oil level. Too high on dipstick.

    Checking oil level on my 2017 GT and I find that the oil extends at least 50mm above the hash marks. Car has been sitting for 4 days on level ground. Nomatter how carefully I insert and remove the dipstick it comes out covered in oil. Car has always been dealer serviced. Has anyone had this...

    Lots of non-American residents shaking our heads while reading this thread. What a sad place you have there.

    SPANDEX ENORMITY! I love it!
