  1. Oil around these valve cover sensors. Should I be concerned?

    Hey , I just cleaned around the area and dealt with it that way. It was considered normal when I took it to the dealership. I have around 65,000 miles on the car and I occasionally clean around the area. Never had enough seepage to be a concern.
  2. 2018 mustang gt stock 20 inch rims.

    I have 275/35/20 on my 2018 GT. It came with Goodyear 265/35/20 but once the tires were worn, I replaced them with Michelin Pilot AS 4 (275/35/20) with zero problems.
  3. UPDATE!!! 8-7-2023 Time to replace stock pads and rotors for 2018 GT (Need help)

    My car is a 2018 GT Premium (Non-PP) I used the following items for the brake change: Front rotors: BRRF448 Rear rotors: BRRF336 Front brake pads: BRF1955 Rear brake pads: BRF1864 Everything worked out great. I will post pictures of the used rotors because the front left rotors have these deep...

  5. Rust in spare tire storage!! can this be stopped and repaired?!

    https://www.dandvautobody.com/ This is where I am planning to take the car. They have great reviews. Might not be cheap but I plan to keep this car for as long as I can and want this to be fixed properly.
  6. Rust in spare tire storage!! can this be stopped and repaired?!

    - Yes, the car is driven year round. - I checked and the plug looks secure and flush with the body. - It could have but I will have to take a closer look and look underneath the body and find out if salt got through somehow. I will keep everyone updated once the fix is done. There is a tire...
  7. Rust in spare tire storage!! can this be stopped and repaired?!

    It came with the inflator kit. My inflator kit has been sitting in the left corner of the trunk since I placed the spare tire since November of last year. The kit does not seem to have leaked anything so no sure what else could have spilled to cause the damage.
  8. Rust in spare tire storage!! can this be stopped and repaired?!

    I will do that but I do not think there is any leak from the trunk/rear windshield area. I get the feeling something spilled and caused this issue. Only thing is, I do not remember if something spilled and what it could have been. I think you are right about it being a chemical of some sort...
  9. Rust in spare tire storage!! can this be stopped and repaired?!

    1) The tire looks clean and that is because I did not buy the spare tire kit until November of last year. 2) No it has never been used 3) I will have to look underneath and check. When I placed the new spare tire kit towards end of last year, I did not see any rust or bubbling of paint...
  10. Radio keeps coming on when car is started

    I use my iPhone 12 as media (i.e play songs via YouTube or Soundcloud, etc.) and as a GPS device, Waze in particular. The moment I park the car and pull out the phone, the car switches to XM radio and blasts whatever is playing. I guess you are right, it is designed to be this way. Best bet is...
  11. Radio keeps coming on when car is started

    2018 GT here and it does the same thing. No idea how to turn it off.
  12. Rust in spare tire storage!! can this be stopped and repaired?!

    @KingKona @GregO @Ecto1 @DadzMach I appreciate input from all of you. Reading through everything you all suggested, I would rather have a professional shop with folks who have experience with this stuff fix it properly. I asked if it can be a DIY not necessarily to save money but to do it...
  13. Rust in spare tire storage!! can this be stopped and repaired?!

    @Skye Thanks for the information regarding Corrosion Coverage. I purchased the car in Jan of 2018. I also have the FORD ESP (highest level coverage) until 2026 and 125K miles. Not sure if that helps or extends coverage for corrosion. I am not sure if something spilled in the trunk and caused...
  14. Rust in spare tire storage!! can this be stopped and repaired?!

    Long story short, I took out the spare tire to do some work on the car and noticed the paint completely gone and exposed metal covered in rust at three different spots in the spare tire area. No idea what caused this as there is no standing water (pointing to a leak). Can this be repaired as a...
  15. UPDATE!!! 8-7-2023 Time to replace stock pads and rotors for 2018 GT (Need help)

    I am confused myself. The front rotors did not match the size of the ones I was going to replace, new ones being smaller. The front pads of course were not the same either. I looked at the rear replacement rotors and they did not match the old ones either. I am in the process of returning all...
  16. A10 - 5th Gear

    Unfortunately, it is not fixed and at 60K miles, still does that hang-up when shifting from 3-5 in drive and when is S or S+ /Track mode, the 4-5 shift is very hard as if I got hit from behind. I have had the fluid level checked multiple times and there are no issues with that. I had 6 quarts of...
  17. 10r80 5th gear issue

    Mine does the same. I am about to touch 60K miles and want to take it to the dealer to have them check it out. It does this in normal mode and when I shift the trans to S or S+ the 4-5 shift becomes really harsh so something is definitely wrong with the trans in my car.
  18. Engine decel rattle

    I am about to hit 60K miles on my 2018 GT and it does this rattle to this day. It really quiets down once warm but is still there and I can only hear it if I was next to a wall (i.e. In a drive through) and were to put it in neutral and hit the gas pedal and on the rev down can hear a very...
  19. Rhythmic light rattle/Tinking shortly after startup

    I wouldn't worry about it. My 2018 GT has similar sounds and initially I was worried about it but most Gen 3 motors make some sort of ticking sound. Unless the motor starts to consume lots of oil or starts to show other odd behavior (not making power or a check engine light), I wouldn't stress...
