Great build! Can't wait to see those wheels on the car. Please do some videos of your exhaust! :-) I'm considering adding X-pipe to my Roush AB as well. Wife will hate me for it...worth it? Lol

So I've seen some springs say they're for coupes only, but yours don't specify. Will they be okay on convertibles and if so, will there be any disadvantages since I assume you tuned these for coupes?

Yeah I've heard others saying that is the noise they get, while mine seems more like after you release the clutch, but it still could possibly be something in the drivetrain in your case...when taking a load OFF the axles? Hard to say...
I'm no expert on these things, but I've driven a few other RWD cars with IRS and they don't make this noise. Perhaps it is normal, but just bad engineering. Either case, I'm losing faith in Ford after this plus all the body panel issues I have as well as the horrific MFT...I'm starting to...
Do you know what dealership? Seems interesting that no one else can seem to find this TSB! Wouldn't mind calling the dealer up and inquire so I can tell me dealer.
They're keeping my car until Monday since the body shop is still working on fixing my panel alignments, then they will...
OP said he'd know from the other party on Thursday morning...so eagerly awaiting to hear back from Todd, as my car is in the shop now for the thumping issue and if I can point to another car getting warranty work done that will help my chances of getting this fixed! :shrug:
Maybe the TSB is...
I finally found an older video that shows a good example of the idle hanging I had with the CAI/Lund Tune. This isn't even the worst of it, as I didn't have it revved THAT high in this video (originally shot the video for exhaust clips, but realized later I did vertical video...:doh:)

Yeah I heard about this, and I didn't read about it until after I dropped the car off, so I haven't had a chance to check it. Probably isn't that bad on my car otherwise I think I would have noticed it, especially looking through the window in the rear-view mirror! :cheers:
Honestly, I didn't notice. My fault for being too giddy to get the car, plus I got it in the winter and it was at night. I started to notice some of them when washing the car once it got warm out, but hadn't had time to bring it in for it yet. I've been trying to figure out this idle issue...
Well that would be just poor customer service if they don't treat me right, which wouldn't be surprising from this particular chain of dealership (they get a bad rap around here). BTW they are kind of splitting the work anyway, as the service tech had the car yesterday, and the body shop has the...
You'd have to take it in, and probably reference the TSB to get them to find the issue as I've noticed not all dealers actually look up TSBs when you tell them you are having a specific issue. Technically, they'd only have to diagnose it and see if the TSB applies (either by build date or by...
No you were right, they're talking about the CV axles (same as half-shafts). I'm willing to bet this is the problem I'm having with the thud noise...and many others are noticing this too. I don't notice it when sitting still, just when shifting while moving. Either that or some driveshaft play...
This video only showed slop in the suspension/diff bushings, not anything about the halfshafts that I saw...is there another video somewhere or did you just mis-type half-shafts and really you meant the bushings?
I can't say for sure, I do remember it would sometimes hang and even raise the RPMs slightly during the hang. It seemed to be more of a time thing, than a speed thing, as I could be going 30 and coasting to a stop and it would hang once I let off the throttle and put the clutch in. Would also do...
There's a big difference between rev-match and idle hanging, which I find super annoying! :frusty: If what my car is doing right now, with the stock CAI and stock tune, is normal rev-matching and/or normal emissions behavior, then I am fine with that. I had bad idle hanging with the JLT and...
Also, regarding the thumping noise, I found this thread yesterday...hopefully I can get the dealer to look this up and see if it applies to my car, as the noise does seem like an issue with play in the drivetrain to me...

Interesting...when I had my tune and CAI on, it was much worse. I wonder if it is a different issue I'm dealing with. I thought this issue was the underlying issue, but maybe it is like you say...its normal. It isn't that annoying with stock intake/CAI, but when I have my CAI and tune it gets...
