  1. Aftermarket sequential front turn signal connector pins...

    I have the OPT Arrows. The pin in the connector has corroded and eroded. The trouble is that there is no such connector in the vehicle's original wiring. This replaces the light bulb socket. The female connector, which is part of the OEM wiring, is part # 3U2Z-14S411-FHAB (also called...
  2. What color should I paint my brake calipers?

    I have a 2016 Ruby Red California Special. Over the years, the calipers have started to collect stains (maybe corrosion?). My thought is to sand blast them and then paint them to prevent the gungy look from returning. What would be the best color for the calipers? I have been thinking about...
  3. Best option to dispose of old wheels and tires?

    I have a set of old wheels with the old tires still mounted. Anybody know of the best way (i.e. the least amount of work from me) to dispose of them? Otherwise, I'll let the local landfill's recycling process take over.
  4. 3 Front Control Arms Replaced at 40K Miles

    Is this a normal issue for the S550? (2016) I have had to replace the driver side lower rearward, passenger side rearward and forward control arms at only 40K miles. The driver side rearward went first. I figured perhaps a marginal part from the factory, but then the passenger sides went...
  5. 2016 California Special Question...

    A quick question for anyone that owns a 2016 GT/CS. The interior has red stitching on the seats, doors, and floormats... But what about the parking brake boot? I requested the dealership to adjust my brake cable on the first visit to the shop; however, they replaced it rather than adjust it. I...
  6. Sanitizing wipes compatible with interior surfaces?

    I usually just wipe down the interior with the damp microfiber that I used to dry the car... Anybody have an idea about sanitizing wipes capable of killing viruses without damaging or staining the materials of our interior (leather, vinyl, touchscreen, etc.)
  7. How to fix the OPT7 Arrows fluttering

    Some of the other threads where we have discussed the following solutions to the OPT7 Arrows improper sequencing got to be rather lengthy and the information got a little buried. There have been a couple of requests to create a stand-alone thread that is easier to follow (and shorter). So, I...
  8. Replies missing from thread?

    I have received email notifications for 3 replies to this thread: https://www.mustang6g.com/forums/threads/hmmm-i-wonder-gt500-airbox-for-16-gt-with-frpp-pp2.133349/ However it currently states 0 replies and the three of them have gone missing (no "post deleted" messages either). Any ideas...
  9. Hmmm, I wonder... (GT500 airbox for '16 GT with FRPP PP2)

    The 2016 GT with the FRPP Power Pack 2 uses the GT350 airbox and filter and looks like this: However, the air box gasket doesn't seal against the GT's hood very well and the IAT jumps up a lot from ingesting the hot engine compartment air whenever the car isn't moving fast enough. There has...
  10. Engine clatter that is not the infamous BBQ tick

    2016 GT M6. When the engine is stone cold, there is a clatter between 2k rpm and roughly 3k+ rpm. Sounds like dry lifters or a dry timing tensioner or cam adjuster. It only makes noise when there is a load, even a very slight load. For example, light enough load to raise the RPM in neutral...
  11. Diode Dynamics Switchbacks and BCM / Tail Light Issues

    I'm looking at installing the @Diode Dynamics switchback turn signals in my '16 GT. However, I have come across a few threads and a few reviews about the switchbacks confusing the BCM and the tail light stops working. I haven't seen if there is a solution or update, or even a definitive cause...
  12. Has anyone with Sync3 Nav successfully updated their maps?

    Update September 2019: It appears that Ford has implemented a way to update the Nav maps for Sync3. Many thanks to @aclosedmind for posting the info (see post #39). You can find the link through owner.ford.com as well. Download and install yourself, or order a USB drive from them to install...
  13. Update to Sync3 v3.0 worth it or not?

    Since I have already spent way too much time reading and searching through 130 pages of Installation Issues, I though I would start a separate topic about what changed and whether or not the update should be avoided. The change log on owner.ford.com is very vague. So for those of you that...
  14. Chassis Lube instructions (2016 GT) ??

    Does anyone have the lube points / instructions for the typical "Chassis Lube" that is supposed to be done at the same time as an oil change? Maybe I'll have to bite the bullet and purchase the service manual. I was hoping for one in print though, which doesn't seem to be available yet.
  15. Oil Change Surprise...

    Had the dealership do the first oil change along with my initial service and some other fixes. For several reasons I've decided not to take my car back to the dealership unless there is a significant warranty problem. Here is one more surprise that reinforces my decision to avoid the dealer...
  16. Current "Official" Sync 3 version for '16 Mustang?

    As far as I can tell, the currently most up to version of SYNC 3 for the 2016 Mustang is v2.2... Is this correct? While keeping an eye on this v3.0 thread, I've seen references to v2.3 as well. I've logged into the owner.ford.com website and discovered something strange that has me...
  17. 2016 Mustang SYNC 3 Vehicle Health Report ?

    Anybody successfully ever received a Vehicle Health Report without using Ford Pass? The Ford Owner website gives instructions on how to do it but it won't work for me. If not, is it worth it to buy the required on-board equipment for Ford Pass (if it is available for 2016 MY)? Do I need to...
  18. Forced Induction, high altitude, other mods needed?

    I've been reading up on the forced induction options for my 2016 GT Manual. First I want to thank everyone for the incredible amount of information and help available on the forum. I have kind of a specialized question that I've only been able to pick up indirect bits and pieces of a possible...
  19. Don't let this turn into another octane thread...

    I have a specific question related to octane, but don't want to start yet another octane thread... Here goes, let's see what we can get: I'm Looking at the Ford Performance Racing Power Pack 2. All of the FPR tunes require the use of 91 octane minimum (instead of the published 87 octane...
  20. Audio performance diminished after head unit replacement

    I'm hoping someone can help me figure some things out. My radio was acting sketchy so when I took my car (2016 GT Premium, 401a) in for its first oil change, it was one of the things on my list for them to check out. My issue is that the audio performance has diminished noticeably after the...
