I think the Dodge Challenger is catching up fast,the engine and transmission problems in M/Y 2018-2019 are starting to catch up to the Mustang,I wouldn't be surprised if Challenger doesn't take the lead in the not to distant future.
It is just a matter of time,Ford started killing the Mustang after M/Y 2014, when they made the beloved Mustang to look like every other Euro box on the street,then they really messed up the great Coyote engine in M/Y 2018.Ford is doing a slow flush of what used to be a good car company.
I like to wait a little longer,just to make 100% sure it is perfect,The problem I have is that I can't find the redline thing for street use in Fords guide,and by waiting that half hour to check the oil, it allows the big chunks of metal to settle down in the pan,and the engine knocks are a...
I start my Coyote up in the garage,I let it idle for 2-3 hours with the A/C on because it's 95* now down here in S/W Florida,then I shut the car off and wait a half hour for all the oil to drain down,check my oil level,check my coolant and brake fluid,crawl under the car after I jack it up and...
The 2019 Mustang GT/ A T) was not able to complete 2 laps on the track because of overheating,Ford says IT'S NOT a track car,even though it has the track package.Ford states it is designed for street and touring,the car didn't even make 2 laps without going into the LIMP mode.SAD !!!!!!!!!!!!
73 years old here,2011 Mustang GT,have owned many Mustangs in my past,ALL V8, but this will be my LAST Mustang ( garage queen) because I am not a fan of the S550 Mustang,I think Ford really messed up with the Euro Box design,the 4 Banger Eco Boost, and many other things that I dislike along with...
I bought my first new Mustang GT 350 back in 1966,sold that one, and bought a new 1969 Mach 1 428 CJ,sold that for a 1969 Corvette,got married and had to sell the Vette cause kid's were on the way.Now bought a VW+ Honda,Mazda but through the years liked most Mustangs,some to a lesser...
Find a low mileage 2011-2014 GT Mustang,much BETTER CAR.Forget your thoughts on the so called upgrade,stick with the S197 series, you will be much happier and less problems.
Yes they are,the folks that bought into all that NEW & IMPROVED hype just don't want to admit,that the NEW Coyote engine is a manufacturing mess,glad I am not one of them.Imagine the resale value, after all the headache of owner ship and down time,buy backs and lemon law BS.
The 2018/19 is a different set of problems,it doesn't take a lot of reading to see the MAJOR problems and engine failures,and if you believe that BS that Ford is telling you !!!!
Here is what we DON'T know,how much gold is in Ft Knox
What goes in to make coke that we all drink
What happened to flight MH370
What makes the noise TICKING,RATTLE,BUBBLES in Fords 2018/19 Coyote engines.
We can debate this forever but like all of the above, there is NO answer,only Ford...
Here is a little off topic question,with ALL of the engine problems with the 2018-2019 Coyote engines,and some on this thread saying they didn't pull the trigger,or were shying away from the Mustang because of all the engine problems and this being the ONLY car that Ford now builds,if Ford keeps...
I have one of the FIRST Gen 1 Coyote engines in my 2011 GT,the engine was produced in April of 2010,I use Mobil 1 5W 30 and the Fram XG 10575 oil filter, I also use the small bottle of Hyper Lube at every oil change.My engine uses NO oil,has zero noise as far as ticks or rattles,I have owned the...
