With my 2002 GT, on the highway, I would get 28.1 mpg. The 2019 GT gets 27.9 mpg. Both auto. Nominally the same mpg despite 50% increase in power.

If some rain sensors leak and some do not, then a leaking sensor can't be considered "normal". There has to be a reason that some leak. I'm saying that going into my 3rd replacement.

Yes, my 2019 GT/CS is on its 3rd rain sensor. It only starts leaking when in the garage over the Winter but then continus in warmer weather. Cold temperatures start it.

Die Hard AGM.

I went with the Car Quest AGM. I've had incredible service out of their batteries.

On my 2019 GT, I would describe the brakes as more powerful, perhaps overboosted? compared to an average vehicle. The brakes are very linear so it's a matter of getting used to them, in my opinion. However, if the braking effect is not linear, then there could be a problem.

I think it looks better. The factory bracket breaks up the "fish mouth" look. That and I never worry about being pulled over. In NY, that is a thing.

Well, it was time to rotate the tires, so I took the time to wash, compound, and Mirror Glaze wax the back of the GT/CS wheels. NOW they look awesome!

No scientific data but I have bought several of the NOS Purolator sealed canister (bypass) oil filters that are used on many 1930- 1960 American engines. I've never had any problem or reason to question these many decades old filters. As long as they're closed with cellophane or such to keep the...

2019 GT/CS. 5900 miles. Engine is VERY quiet, uses no oil in 2000 miles. Motorcraft 5w-20 semi syn and Motorcraft filter. Runs superbly. 28 mpg highway. Extremely satisfied.

Same exact problem that I had. I also believe the variance is more likely in the rail manufacture. I still have them sitting in my garage soon to go on Marketplace, I gave up on grinding. I'm going to order the JM, which I think is a better design, anyway.

Yes, when I had the OE fill tested I specifically asked for the weight verification. It was 5w-20 on my 2019.

The gel pack is part of the Windshield rain sensor. My unit started to leak after the weather got quite cold in late October the 2nd year I had the car. My car is garaged most of its life. Not exposed to much heat.

So, a question. Would it be a good idea to cut the insulation away from the heat extractors (where the water gets in) and then seal the edge of the insulation with silicone?

I'm in, too, in case there are new developments.

Hmm, for some reason that thread doesn't seem to be there..

Another vote for Continental DWS06 tires. If you can go to a higher profile tire, that helps also. Tires are your primary shock absorbers.

Ah, so the person that picks up the car is not the one who verifies the condition. That's somewhat risky, then. If that transport person does damage to the car, and anybody that has had cars transported knows wherof I speak, the owner is on the hook for the damage.

So, maybe I'm not understanding something. If I sell the car to a dealer or a private party, I get paid, they get the car. Why aren't you paid when they take your car?

Simple, but tasty. Angus hot dog, spicy mustard, and cole slaw.
