Just chiming in to say I've got play in my water pump pulley and have been hearing what I believe is a bad bearing randomly for a bit now.
I'm starting to not be surprised by things dying earlier than they should on my Ford! :)
Will someone please correct me if I am wrong, I have a 2020 picked up Nov 2019, and just today I noticed bubbling under the front edge of my hood. Seemingly the typical hood corrosion.
My warranty ended a while ago, am I on the hook for this entirely now?
My PS4S are due to be replaced this year.
I run 325/30/19 rear 285/35/19 front.
Seems many of the newer options like Pilot Sport 5 and Contental 7s are only available in mostly 20" and up sizes right now.
Is my best bet another set of PS4S in 2026?
For street driving only. In wet and dry.
I have loved the looks of the S650 302s and finally got to see one (actually two) in person at the Cleveland auto show.
What a disappointment!
There was a white car and a black one.
The white one had a really badly mismatched front bumper, totally detracted from the expensive custom pony...
I was in stop and go traffic descending a big hill. I was in 2nd and went to shift into first, and the rev match did not kick on and I didn't notice and I jolted the car a bit going into gear.
I immediately got a wrench icon, drive modes unavailable, anti stall and rev match gone, etc.
Pulling...
Redtiger sent me a unit to review and let you all know what it's like.
The box they send has everything you need to hardwire the unit in, which is great. It also included a micro USB 128GB so you are ready to go out of the box. It also includes cables if you don't want to hardware, but it's a...
Recently my slave cylinder went bad at 41k miles. While in there I had my clutch replaced.
The Mustang-specific shop I had it at says they had good success with McLeod RXT. Looking into that clutch it seems a bit more aggressive and for way more horsepower than my mostly stock car makes.
I...
If my manual GT drove great at lunch, but then leaving work 4 hours later it was VERY tough to put into 1st, and then shifting to 2nd/3rd/etc was also VERY hard and required a lot of force compared to normal, what is my most likely culprit?
This is my first manual, but I've had it for 6 years...
Today at lunch took the car, 0 issues whatsoever.
Today going home, car did not want to shift into 1st.
Shifts between 1-2 and 1-2-3 are very tough most of the time. Sometimes "normal".
Downshifting from 4th to 3rd seemed easier. But 1-2 and into 3 was like pushing thru rocks often.
Do not...
Does anyone have a diagram or graphic available for a 18+ roof under the headliner?
I have an awful rattle that I have tracked down to just above the passenger seats head.
But so far when I look around there I can't see much past the side airbag mount.
Wondering if there's any guide showing...
A cool poster here a little while back let us all know Ford was giving a free poster out to a few people if you emailed them and told them about your car and asked for it.
(There was some debate this was a scam or not which was pretty amusing)
I emailed them and was lucky enough to get one and...
I recently at 4.5 years and 33k miles changed the stock fluid to BG Synchro Shift II.
Immediately noticed positive change. Less clunking into gear and it just slides in easier.
My factory fill was also higher than what it said to add as the replacement, which I wonder could cause any issues...
Since car was new my battery has been kinda wonky, I blamed it on being parked a lot for 2 years during covid.
Since the cold started this winter, I noticed I had to drive my manual car like an actual manual all the time now because for some reason when I'd let out the clutch slowly from a stop...
I was quoted I think a good price of $2500 roughly to swap this out.
The person who would do the work is a Ford tech by day, and he's doing it by the book. Says it calls for 14 hours to do if I remember right.
Do you all think that's worth the price? It would be one of the only performance...
I broke a piece on it like an idiot. Wondering if I can replace it. It's the plastic backing piece that the dome light cover clips into. It's on the other side of the headliner. Picture attached.
Have had an issue since November, progressively getting worse, where I turn the wheel left and get a pop.
Also started popping when taking off from a stop/red light.
Things I have changed beforehand: Ford Performance struts & shocks, Ford Performance 1" drop lowering springs.
Dealer asked me...
When I make a wide turn I get a clunk. Mechanic thought it was a bad strut. Replaced it and the mounts and clunk remains. (I took opportunity to upgrade entire suspension to Ford Performance parts)
Does not happen on slight left turns, has to turn the wheel a good bit.
Mechanic checked...
