  1. Sad- I Traded my Mustang

    So I was in a situation where my current project vintage Bronco went from bad, badder to worse. First a local body shop scammed me for 10K, did no work to it. Then I went to a guy on the side who I had been talking to for 6 months- he took the job, asked for 2K up front, then vanished. I had...
  2. Knocking at Idle and Pinging

    My 2018 GT is at the Ford dealer for diagnosis. The type writer tick has turned into a knocking at idle and the rattle or valve clatter at 2300 RPM is more pronounced and does it even when warmed up now. It is also pinging- when I start off in first gear I hear a little bit of pinging. When I...
  3. Clattering at 2-3K RPM Constant Now

    My 2018 GT is making a clattering noise- which I initially thought was the “piston slap” and it was occurring only when cold, then went away. Now my car is doing it all the time- only it’s very loud when cold and when warmed up you can still hear it clearly but not as loud. The noise sounds...
  4. First Long Road Trip was Great- 2018 GT

    I took my first very long road trip in my 2018 GT this past weekend. It’s a base model, 6 speed manual, 3.55 rear axle ratio. I drove from South Florida to Lexington, SC- a total of 1350 miles round trip, about 22 hours of driving. I drove a combination of back roads and the interstate...
  5. Changed my Oil- Too soon?

    I changed my oil yesterday- my car has only 2785 miles and I owned it 4 months. The reason I changed it is that I am leaving for a long road trip and will put on about 1700 miles on the car over next weekend. I would not get a chance to change it for another 2 weeks if I did not change it now...
  6. My Car Has the Tick Now

    Well after 2600 miles my car has the ticking noise at idle when it's hot. It's like a knocking sound that in any other car I would not consider "normal". It only had the piston rap before when it was cold, not this. After reading so many threads on it and the Plasma process, etc. I am assuming...
  7. What's your other car (if you have another one)

    I am curious to what your other car is, if you have another car- and whether or not you like it, and comparing it to your Mustang. In my case I have a Fiesta ST- it's my daily driver. I really like it- it's got an MBRP CAT back exhaust, it's fun to drive, very practical and gets such good gas...
  8. Non Torsen Rear End

    I see that a lot or most GT’s have the Torsen rear end with the 3.73 axle ratio. My base GT does to have the Torsen, it has the standard limited slip rear with 3.55. Is this a much weaker rear end? If it’s not Torsen, who makes it?
  9. Is Mustang GT your Weekend car or DD?

    I just got my Mustang GT- got it as my 2017 Camaro gave me so many problems with the bad A8 transmission I traded it in. So the GT replaced the Camaro as my “weekend” car. Although I would rotate the Camaro with my Fiesta ST once in a while for my long commute to work. But with the GT and 15...
  10. My 2018 GT is Base What am I missing?

    I just bought a 2018 GT, base model, 6 speed, 3.55 rear axle, the only option is the black package for $995. I drove it and loved it and the dealer took my 2017 Camaro RS with the troublesome A8 tranny in trade. So what are the weak points not having the "track" or any upgraded packages? Is...
  11. New GT Owner- Add Back Speakers?

    Hello, my first post- I am the new owner of a 2018 Mustang GT, 6 speed manual- base, no options- well I should say one- it has the black accent package. It’s a long story how I ended up with this GT. First I love sports cars- fast, good handling, good sounding and easy to work on. I have...
