I just saw a Ford Master Tech on YOUTUBE saying that the Gen 4 Coyote 5.0s are no longer using the plasma spray in liners. Is this true and is Ford back to press in linings? I know that they switched back to a metal oil pan on the redesign but have not heard about this.
Thanks for your input. I went back and forth and decided to get a set of adjustable Konis on a great sale this week at AM. I had a set on my old SN 197 and they dramatically improved that car and were adjustable for wear.
I have a non PP GT Premium which has the 19 inch wheels. Looking to upgrade the struts and shocks soon. I have had good luck with both brands. On the s550, any input would be greatly appreciated. I like sporty driving but no track day with my car.
I have the FP designed catch can. Ford designed it so it should be good. And it helps keep the cats cleaner in the long run since you are burning up less deposits over many miles.
Ok here is the flat tire fiasco. You get a flat on a weekend. AAA shows up to flat bed your car to a tire store. If you had a spare, they could install it for you and away you go. No spare, your car gets damaged being flat bedded to a tire store that may be closed. The store is closed so...
No AM radio, sad looking dash, start stop fiasco, electric parking brake, complicated dual intake set up with little gain in HP /torque, no quad V-8 exhaust tips without active option, ugly wheel choices, and significant price increases across all models. And the styling is a sept backward on...
Mine had the same metallic material at my first oil change at 220 miles. I was so shocked that I did another change at 600 miles and all was good. I think it must have been break in material from the plasma transfer lining process. Anyway, 16K on the motor, no ticking or oil consumption, and...
I priced out a new GT Premium like my current 2018 GT and it ran $53K versus my old $43K before MCA X-Plan. I will keep my AM radio and fog lights....."I am out".
I am 69 and have both my second and forth Mustang GTs. 1988 GT bought new and my 2018 GT special ordered from the factory. I had a 1983 and a 2006 GT along the way. They all keep me sane in these difficult times. Who would have thought that Ford would give up on making cars other than the...
My 2018 GT premium does this all of the time. I have 16+K on the awful P-Zeros and switching to Michelin PS4s soon. In the meantime, Steeda says that if you should use the "comfort" steering setting, this will help reduce the tramlining which it does.
The electronics in these cars will make the decision easy. One LED headlight goes out.....over $1000+. HVAC issues, same thing. Just price out several parts on your car and you will quickly see the benefits of a Ford extended warrantee if you plan on keeping your car beyond the 3/36000...
There is a nut job that drove a rental Mustang GT from NYC to LA in 26 hours at speeds of 160 + while carrying 150 gallons of fuel inside the car. He had just one stop for fuel I believe. Great story and super dangerous and a legend. It is on YOUTUBE I believe going back 2-3 years.
With my 2018 GT, I changed the oil at 220 miles and the amount of metallic grit in the catch pan was quite high. The factory oil filter was also one inch shorter than the FL-500 replacement filter. I was so spooked, that I did a second change at 600 miles. The second change had much less...
