Welp, ok, so, my 2015 GT is a garage queen. As of today, it has just under 8,000 miles on it. Despite the trickle charger/maintainer, the battery has finally given up the ghost. Electronics will power just fine, but the battery can't turn the engine anymore.
I found some threads, though they...
Well, pretty much as the topic says. It seems that when I slow to a stop, it holds 2nd gear *maybe* a little longer than it should.
Just before I come to a complete stop, then it shifts down to 1. It's not overly harsh or anything, but it is definitely noticeable, and you sometimes hear a kind...
Ok, so, if what I've read from the BobIsTheOilGuy website is true, the first number really only indicates relative thickness when cold.
And, from the same source, when cold, 0 is still thicker than 30 is at 212 degrees Fahrenheit.
Given the OEM recommendation of 5W20 synthetic blend, is there...
All,
Ok, so I've had my Mustang for a little over a year. It has about 2,400 miles on it now.
The computer is now telling me that I'm due for an oil change. I assume that this is because of the time passed rather than the mileage.
I do have a few questions, though.
Does full synthetic...
Yeah, this is an odd question, I know.
But, out of curiosity, which generation(s) of Mustangs were known for having a respectable amount of interior room - or, even if not respectable, more than the other generations.
I get it, they're really 2+2, but I'm curious as to whether any could seat...
So, I have a base 2015 GT, and the base sound system.
With my phone (Android), normally when I use a regular Bluetooth unit in my ear, the phone usage goes through, but use of Google Maps also causes the voice to come through the Bluetooth.
So, I have my car set up so that it pairs with my...
I can't imagine this hasn't come up before. However, one of the things I thought was a sort of constraint for Ford is the bore spacing on the Modular engine. The spacing is fairly small, thus, they can't go big bore on it.
And, at 5.0L, and those enormous heads, the engine is huge in the...
All,
Ok, so I'm interested in hearing from V6 owners of the 2015, as well as various engine owners from the 5g cars, both 2005-2009, as well as the 2010-2014 refresh... and I'm specifically wondering what Weight Class your vehicle fell into for registration purposes.
(also, I think the weight...
Ok, so, yeah.
If you owned a car from the 60s, from the 70s, from the 80s . . then getting a car from the 90s or the early 2000s was still familiar. You still inserted a key or a fob into a slot to start the car. Radio layout was the same. Everything looked more incrementally evolved...
Ok, so I'm in the Sicklerville/Williamstown/Turnersville area of NJ, and, having just gotten my 2015 GT, I'd like a bit of striping.
I'm thinking of going with the dual over-the-top stripes. I'm also considering the "Boss-like" side stripes that I've seen on one forum member's car, though I...
Yay, got my 2015 finally.
Boo! Still a little miffed that they didn't do stripes from the factory for 2015.
Also boo! Because I haven't had much chance to drive it yet.
So far, though, I'm pretty giddy with it. BUT . . and this wasn't something I deliberately went for, but I'm now curious...
All,
Ok, so I finally put my order in today, at Holman Ford in Turnersville, NJ, and a $200 deposit. They'll put the order through on Thursday, an rough estimate is that I'll have the car sometime in July.
I ordered:
2015 Mustang GT Base with:
Automatic
All-weather floor mats
Spoiler delete...
Ok, so I registered for the Mustang Club of America on Feb 7.
Am I supposed to get a membership card in the mail or something? The https://www.fordpartner.com seems to imply so given what's described under "View Acceptable Documentation" if I try to generate a PIN.
Also, does the MCA issue me...
All,
Ok, so, after much procrastination (without ANY justifiable reason for procrastinating), I signed up for the Mustang Club of America... about 5 minutes ago.
So, there's two more things I'm still considering....
1) Ford Racing by Borla exhaust... I'm leaning toward the touring version...
Ok, I've never bought a new car before, and never owned a Mustang before (or Camaro/Firebird, or Challenger, or even a Javelin if we want to really include all the pony cars). I want to have all my ducks in a row and know exactly what I want before I go in and order.
So, help me pick some...
