  1. Damaged my wheel, what's the best way to fix it?

    I got a little sideways on a rainy day and brushed a concrete barrier with one of my rear wheels. Was lucky not to damage anything else! This is one of the black (painted?) 2016 GT Performance Package rims. Is this feasible to have repaired or should I just order a new one? Anyone know...
  2. Good everyday shop in South Bay?

    Just moved to Sunnyvale from Colorado with my 2016 GTPP. Working in downtown Mountain View. Looking for a good shop close to home or work for oil changes, tire mounting, alignment, etc. Any recommendations?
  3. Dealer topped off my coolant with tap water - what to do?

    So I recently drove across the country in my 2016 GTPP and found myself a little low on oil. I stopped at the nearest Ford dealer to buy a quart. They were actually very helpful and topped off my oil for free from their bulk container, which they assured me contained Motorcraft 5W20...
  4. Disable rev-matching on upshifts?

    My 2016 GTPP will match RPMs as I'm upshifting, e.g. engine speed will hang at the correct RPM for the next gear. I know there is no setting I can change to turn this off, but is there any way to have the dealer disable this with a factory programming tool or something?
  5. RPM slow to drop when cold?

    Stock 2016 GTPP. I notice RPMs drop very slowly when the car is cold. When I'm just slowly leaving my neighborhood in the morning, it messes up my timing for shifting smoothly. My previous MT cars all dropped faster when cold. Is this some kind of emissions / warmup thing?
  6. Supercharger height and strut tower brace?

    Been thinking about a supercharger for my GTPP. Leaning towards a roots or twin screw setup for the torque advantages over a centrifugal setup. Probably a Whipple. Not looking to compete on road courses or drag strips, just looking for an enjoyable summer DD/road trip car and trying to make...
  7. How to mount rear license plate?

    I will be able to pick up my license plates next week. This may be a stupid question, but...the car did not come with any kind of license plate mounting hardware for the rear. There is a bracket for the front plate, but nothing whatsoever for the rear. Am I supposed to just go out and buy...
  8. Best option for modest power gain at altitude?

    I got my 2016 Mustang GT PP in December and am loving it. However, I live at 7,000 feet in Colorado. Depending on the temperature, the air density here is only 70% - 80% of sea level, and any naturally-aspirated engine produces only approximately 70% - 80% of it's peak rated power. So, my...
  9. Noisy pebbles

    I love everything about my new Mustang. However, out of all the cars I have ever driven, it makes the most noise when driving on a dirty road that I have ever heard. Any sand or dirt on the road sounds like marbles hitting the bodywork. I feel like I can clearly hear the impact of each...
  10. What does the Sync 3 screen look like without navigation?

    All the pictures I've seen of Sync 3 include navigation. What does the interface look like without that option?
  11. Best time to order in the next few months?

    I am planning on getting a GT Premium PP 6MT in either Magnetic or DIB, with the Redline interior. It looks like I will need to special order this since there isn't a single car in Colorado with Redline interior at all, let alone the combination of color and other options I want. Is there...
  12. Redline interior too much for a daily driver?

    I have not seen a car with the Redline interior on any of my local dealer lots. I'm thinking of ordering a 2016 GT Premium PP in DIB with the Redline (non-Recaro) interior. This would be my daily driver. Just wondering if anyone finds the red too intense or distracting on a daily basis.
  13. Will the 2.3L Ecoboost lose power at an altitude of 10,000 feet?

    Atmospheric pressure at sea level is 14.7 psi. At 10,000 feet, pressure is roughly 10.2 psi. The 2.3L Ecoboost produces roughly 18 psi of boost, at sea level. In order to produce the same amount of power at 10,000 feet as at sea level, it would need to produce 22.5 psi of boost, in order to...
