I had an oil change recently on my ‘17 GT PP (50k miles) from a different place than the dealership for the first time. They used Vavoline full synthetic, and to my surprise there was no engine tick for the first time ever after an oil change for me! They changed the factory air filter too...

Awesome thank you. Maybe I will have the dealership give chassis ears a try. I’ve had them do that in the past on previous mustangs.

Thanks for the update. Did they provide any info on how they figured out what was causing the noise?

I never figured it out. I mostly notice it at work in the parking garage. It’s cold now so I’m waiting for the spring before troubleshooting again. From what I’ve read online I think it might be a loose heat shield, but don’t know for sure. Dealership was no help, they drove it 1 mile and...

On my '17 GT I didn't get a tick until I switched to synthetic oil on my second oil change FWIW. The tick lasted 2-3k miles the first time, then faded away. Now at 36k miles, it still gets a tick after an oil change, but isn't nearly as noticeable. It also goes away faster. For example...

On my 2017 GT PP with 36k miles, I've noticed this unusual whine/hum right around 2250 rpm and nowhere else. It happens both when accelerating and decelerating and in different gears, almost like something is vibrating or engaging/disengaging at that specific rpm. I mostly hear it in parking...

Well I thought I would post the solution here in case a poor soul in the future has the same problem. Below is what the dealership tech wrote out. I am not sure what/where the CV nut is, but it came loose just from the car sitting outside in the cold. "Squeak noticeable at low speeds when...

So due to some life events, my 2017 mustang GT 6spd sat outside and was not driven for a couple weeks. This is when VA was getting sub 10 degree temperatures and snow storms. When I finally got to drive my car again, I now hear what sounds like shaking/squeaking plastic under the car. The...

Occasionally, when I am listening to music and go to turn it down just a tad, it jumps up to full volume and is the most annoying thing ever. It usually just happens on the highway, but did it in a drive thru today which is super obnoxious. It will do it whether I am listening to Sirius or...

Just finished my first year with a 17 GT PP as a daily driver and I say it is well worth it! I still love driving the car everyday to and from work, and the MT82 is fine. I learned how to drive manual on my Dad's S2000 just before buying this car and I was still not disappointed at all...

I ended up taking it to a local muffler shop today after no success the past couple of weekend attempts. They had to apply heat to push it loose, but it only cost $10.00! Thanks for the replies!

Due to a stress fracture on the edge of my Corsa exhaust tip, Corsa sent me a replacement tip under warranty. The problem is I cannot remove the old tip. I have tried WD-40 and PB Blaster and the tip will still not budge. Does anyone here have any advice on how to remove this tip without...

Yes, if I try the hairdryer, I will stay conservative with it. The plastic does not seem to be creased. I tried to capture a picture of the flat spot, but it is difficult to see on camera, which I guess is a good thing.

I have a 17 GT PP and last December I had a few scares where the stock Pirelli would tires cut loose when taking turns or shifting under moderate acceleration. These were not issues in 60+ degree wet weather. The biggest issue was the temperature drop and summer tire combo. As someone else...

Yeah that would be great if it fixed itself. I am not sure I can get behind that part of the bumper with my hand.

So a relative who shall remain unnamed slowing backed into my 2017 gt in the driveway yesterday while they were coasting in neutral. My passenger side bumper popped out from where it connects to the body of the car near the wheel well. Thank goodness there was no paint damage, and the...

As someone else stated, just get up to speed then brake hard and repeat a few times. My performance package has days when the front brakes will be super loud all of a sudden at slow stops. The braking hard fixes the issue for maybe a month or two depending on the weather. I even had the...

Highly agree, that is exactly what I did.

Forgot to mention that mine has zero issues in the cold and I drive it year round in VA.

My 2017 Mustang GT PP was my first manual as well! My dad let me practice on his S2000 prior to my purchase, but I was still no pro. Those first few days, go out early in the morning before traffic is bad. That way if you mess up you have plenty of wiggle room. Also, go super easy when...
