  1. My car is 2.5 yrs old, 5k miles, and it has sucked since day -1.

    Thanks man, I appreciate it. UPDATE: 16 MARCH 2019. Well, the new transmission went in this week. But sadly, the issue is still present. Taking some time to re-read others' posts again and try to re-think this. All my friends and even the master techs at three dealerships who either drove...
  2. My car is 2.5 yrs old, 5k miles, and it has sucked since day -1.

    The majority of owners seem to not have this issue. Some have even taken their cars deep into high-performance territory on the stock MT-82 with no issues. However, this condition seems to affect only a small percentage of MT-82 owners and varies greatly in severity. Some are content to...
  3. My car is 2.5 yrs old, 5k miles, and it has sucked since day -1.

    UPDATE: didn't get much accomplished over the holidays but hit the dealership hard and heavy starting in late-January. The new Ford Racing half-shafts were delivered to my house and are sitting in my garage waiting for me to install. My local dealership got a new transmission expert on staff...

    Thanks man, I'll check out that thread.
  6. My car is 2.5 yrs old, 5k miles, and it has sucked since day -1.

    Thanks for the reply. Yep, that's the next step with the roush dealership.
  7. My car is 2.5 yrs old, 5k miles, and it has sucked since day -1.

    Maybe soon I'll make some recordings with my goPro so ppl can actually hear it for themselves. it's way, way, WAY more than nuance. I've driven performance MT's for 30+ years and never have I EVER had something like this. Something is definitely the culprit, just trying to find out what it...
  8. My car is 2.5 yrs old, 5k miles, and it has sucked since day -1.

    Differential work is out of my comfort zone and experience, but I do have an appointment with my roush dealer to replace the half shafts and check everything in the diff. I installed the BMR diff inserts myself, torqued everything to spec, no issues and it's only been about 500 miles since the...
  9. My car is 2.5 yrs old, 5k miles, and it has sucked since day -1.

    If it wasn't a collector car, I would certainly try to break it while it is still under warranty but I'm concerned about possible collateral damage or issues so I've been treading carefully. My next step is to have the diff pulled apart and checked. The upgraded ford racing half shafts (which...
  10. My car is 2.5 yrs old, 5k miles, and it has sucked since day -1.

    I noticed the pronounced shifting "thud" from day-1 when I picked my '16 Roush up at the port of Bremerhaven Germany. I drove another 2016 GT at the dealership for comparison and it was completely quiet and smooth. None of my friends who bought mustangs in 2016-2017 had the same symptoms as me...
  11. Composite Hood Liner ?

    Wondering if a composite/paintable hood liner is available for the S550. Been searching the internet and wondered if anyone has come across one?
  12. Manual Trans. Thud when shifting

    My trans is currently in pieces at the dealership. Ordering BG fluid. I'll provide details soon.
  13. Manual Trans. Thud when shifting

    already done everything you mentioned. i've even replaced the transmission once already. the only part of the driveline I haven't touched is the differential and the ford racing half shafts that were already preinstalled.
  14. Manual Trans. Thud when shifting

    I've had two extremely annoying driveline issues... the "thud" when up-shifting 1 through 4; and the sloppy-bouncy-feeling-gear-lash feel and sound that started around 1000 miles and was only noticeable (at first) when in a drive-thru queue line every time I depressed the clutch under slight...
  15. I'm about to enhance my MT82, any concerns?

    I replaced my slave cylinder assembly with the mcleod recently. It's (supposed) to be a direct replacement for the stock one (with a beefier spring). It's not necessarily. Lesson learned... the input tube connector did not extend out the hole in the transmission as far as the stock one. Make...

  17. Steeda install. Rear cradle mount might be stripped...

    W717827-S900. ordered mine from oemfordpart.com and they came from a dealership a couple hours away. I thought I was ordering (1) bolt for $4.03, but got a set of four! So, I'm not sure if it's per set or per bolt.
  18. Steeda install. Rear cradle mount might be stripped...

    UPDATE: Cradle installed. The tap set I purchased was great. It came with three taps (starter, intermediate, and plug) and I used them all. The new bolt went in like butter. As for the final install, you guys are correct, the steeda inserts FORCE you to be lined up perfectly over the...

    Thanks. I purchased a set of 3 M14x2.0 off amazon. (Swordfish #8041)
