  1. Keyless entry not working on passenger side

    2019 with just under 26k miles here coming up on 3 years of ownership. Mine started doing this a while back and I tried replacing the key fob battery. I thought that fixed it, but no. It's still doing it. I finally took it into the dealership during my last month of bumper to bumper warranty...
  2. Goodbye to Ford...2018 Mustang Gt ownership

    Put me down as one. I just got mine back from the dealership. This is the last month of bumper to bumper warranty coverage. I thought I would try to get this fixed. Nope. They replaced the passenger door handle (and painted it very poorly I might add). They replaced the JR3Z 15604 B Kit...
  3. When did Ford change the recommended engine oil for the GT?

    Yes. I keep tabs on it through the app on my phone. It just started to go under 10%. This oil change with 10 quarts (plus and extra quart to carry in the trunk) and oil filter is going to run about $80. Plus, I might send this one off to Blackstone - so, maybe another $30 on top of that. I...
  4. When did Ford change the recommended engine oil for the GT?

    The Mustang is a second vehicle. I really haven't taken any major trips in it this year. So, I guess I haven't done enough miles for the oil life meter to gauge that it needed to be changed. There's no way I'm changing 10 quarts of synthetic oil every 3 months. Is anyone doing that?
  5. When did Ford change the recommended engine oil for the GT?

    I've got 5-20 on my cap and 5-30 in my manual for a 2019 (US Spec). I just bought some 5-20 for an oil change, but I might see if I can swap it out for 5-30. I do enjoy driving it a little harder than a daily commuter vehicle. Is there any drawback to making the change just before the...
  6. What's the point of staggered wheels?

    When I bought my aftermarket wheels (SVE 19x10) to mount the stock summer tires for my PP1 I was thinking in terms of running a square setup one day so I could rotate them and hopefully benefit from any handling performance gains. What exactly would I encounter if I actually did that (275 on...
  7. Coyote 3 Oil Catch Can

    Maybe you can do it like that, but I wanted to be sure I fully emptied it out. I’m also not sure how you would easily catch the contents. I loosened the cover to make it easier to pull it out entirely.
  8. Coyote 3 Oil Catch Can

    This picture made me realize the syringe itself took up 5ml of that amount. So, like 11ml. Probably not too awful.
  9. Coyote 3 Oil Catch Can

    Well, emptied out my Ford Performance catch can after a trip over to Arkansas that involved some spirited driving. Probably about 2k miles since I installed it. Looks like about 16ml or just over 1/2oz. Seemed like a lot, but I did do some fairly hard driving in the twisties over there so I...
  10. Coyote 3 Oil Catch Can

    I apologize if I wasn't being clear. Thank you for summarizing to clarify. However, you'll need a 10mm socket to remove the engine cover just to get wiggle room to empty the Ford Performance can if you just want to unplug it and dump it out through the inlet. Right? Or will it wiggle out...

  12. Coyote 3 Oil Catch Can

    Torque specs are provided for the top of the can itself too, actually. Nobody has to observe any of those provided specs. I've just been trying to do better recently about it myself.
  13. Coyote 3 Oil Catch Can

    Yeah, you can almost install it with just those two 10mm nuts removed giving the engine cover some wiggle room. I decided to remove the tower strut bar so I didn't scratch up the engine cover wrestling with it though. The instructions were kind enough to provide torque specs to tighten it back...
  14. Coyote 3 Oil Catch Can

    Got it installed. Looks like it might be tricky to drain it with that giant engine cover in place. If the engine cover has to be lifted its going to be a pain. Looks good though. Heads up that those fasteners do suggest specific torque specs in the instructions. I needed a small torque wrench...
  15. Coyote 3 Oil Catch Can

    This dude on Youtube compares the Ford Performance oil separator to the JLT and some other option. It looks like the Ford Performance has superior filtering and overall design, but I'm sure that is debatable. That's why I went with the Ford Performance option.
  16. Coyote 3 Oil Catch Can

    I see the Youtuber, Zander13, pulled his looking for why he was having issues and found some gunk even with a JLT on the passenger side. So, he put one on the driver's side too. He drives his really, really hard though. It's got lots of modifications. I don't follow him that much anymore so I...
  17. Coyote 3 Oil Catch Can

    I gave in and ordered one of the Ford Performance oil separators. The car has about 17.5k miles on it now though. What might be expected from letting it go that long before putting one on? I guess I'm curious if there is anything that can be done to clean up any buildup? I'm reluctant to...
  18. Coyote 3 Oil Catch Can

    Thanks! That's what I thought. I'm personally sure it doesn't hurt anything, but I sorta felt like I might be getting extra scrutiny over my concerns about all the tick drama going around and warranty coverage. I might add one at some point if I feel the need to do something for the car and...
  19. Coyote 3 Oil Catch Can

    I'm sure it doesn't hurt to have the extra insurance, but I considered getting a catch can for my 2019 GT and just passed on doing it. I had already spent a wad on an extra set of wheels/tires, tint, PPF, etc. Primarily, I had looked at other cars with direct injection (notably the Volkswagen...
  20. 2019 GT PP1 7k Oil Change Anylasis

    I had another analysis done since this one and it was good too. The car has been running great. Not consuming too much oil in my opinion. Nothing unusual.
