  1. Bikes and ragtops

    I can't say if it will fit. I'll only let you know that top up or down doesn't affect trunk size. Also, if you had to let the seat down to fit the bike it very well may not fit as the convertible seats are fixed to a metal frame piece that goes from side to side.
  2. Hood Struts for a 2015 Mustang GT

    What he said. Just replace the struts with ones that fit. No real need to buy a new kit or pay for a name. I've not had to replace my Redlines yet but I have replaced window and hatch struts on other vehicles. It's easy to do.
  3. What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

    Curious how this shook out for you. Were you able to get the tpms to relearn?
  4. Need help diagnosing high CHTs - one radiator fan won’t run during active test (2015 GT ProCharged)

    Depending on where you live poking holes in the wiring can lead to bad things. Living somewhere in the rust belt with holes in wiring insulation just leads to corrosion and failed wiring. If you do take this approach it won't hurt to put a little liquid electrical tape on it.
  5. How to Remove Window Sticker

    Any tint on the windshield is aftermarket. Since it's a Florida car I wouldn't be surprised if a PO had it done. It's less for visible light blocking than it is for UV light. Living in Georgia we had my wife's windshield done. It has virtually no color but does help protect the interior from...
  6. S550 VS. S650 Body Style

    I'm sure it has. But you totally missed the point. If that upgraded tech fails just how drivable will the car be?
  7. S550 VS. S650 Body Style

    When and while they work. And for as long as they are supported. Three years ago my '12 Edge lost its APIM 500 miles from home. Thank goodness it has some physical controls or that would have been a very uncomfortable ride home. Even then much of the systems are routed through the APIM so...
  8. Need help diagnosing high CHTs - one radiator fan won’t run during active test (2015 GT ProCharged)

    #1 - it's very likely it should. #2 - my first guess is the fan. Easy enough to check by applying power directly. #3 - yes #4 - I'd address the fan issue first. #5 - I don't know if there are better but I know aftermarket can be worse. I wouldn't choose aftermarket over OEM if I didn't have...
  9. S550 VS. S650 Body Style

    But the S650 gets hate for the front, the rear, the sides and especially the dash. I could probably warm to the exterior but that dash is a step too far for me.
  10. S550 VS. S650 Body Style

    Me to. I really like the 18 front over the 17. I do think that the 15-17 front end was a nice transition, progression maybe, from the S197. But the tweaks to the 18 really made it for me.
  11. How many speeding tickets have you gotten? Were the officers aggressive or being rude?

    I've been driving since 1971. During that time I've had several speeding tickets. My memory is not good enough to put an actual number to them. My last one was about 5 years ago in the Mustang. It made it into Georgia's "Super Speeder" territory so it was an expensive ticket and did indeed piss...
  12. What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

    Well, you're right. Some people have changed the battery in their tpms sensors. It requires splitting open the case, using knives, picks and screwdrivers to dig out the potting, unsolder the battery, solder it back in, putting silicone or some material back in and resealing the case. I never...
  13. What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

    I would love a link to a video that shows replacing a tpms battery. Everything that I can find says that they are soldered in place and then "potted" to seal them in. Saying they "serviced" the sensors is a pretty vague statement. Did they list a charge for this service? I still don't believe...
  14. What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

    There's no harm in trying to relearn the sensors. It will either work or it won't. I have serious doubts that anything at a drugstore drive thru, or any drive thru, will effect the tpms or their signal. Did Discount replace the batteries or the entire sensor? I was under the impression that the...
  15. Battery recommendations?

    I find it odd that you're ready to jump from a brand that's lasted 6 years so far to one that's not readily available and probably harder still to warranty if needed. Costco and Walmart are everywhere so if a battery fails prematurely I can get it taken care of if I'm at home or 1000 miles away.
  16. Battery went out yesterday 3 months after purchase, settings.

    I've lived in the Atlanta area 38 years now. It has gotten into the negative teens a few times. But no where near as cold as the winter I spent in Minneapolis.
  17. Battery went out yesterday 3 months after purchase, settings.

    Your thread title is misleading. Your battery died 3 months after you bought the car, not after you bought a battery. As to your question about installing a new battery in a used car at service/ before sale, if the car starts consistently, why would they? Did you take the car for a pre-purchase...
  18. S550 VS. S650 Body Style

    I still think I see a Camero when I see one in the rear view mirror. And the taillights remind me of a Hyundai. I haven't cared for them much since I first saw one in the wild.
  19. Are people just not buying Mustang GTs (or cars for that matter)?

    Perhaps you could contact Carfax and see if it's possible to get a note attached to that listing stating hail damage? Severe, extensive exterior damage makes it sound like a roll-over... If you're looking at selling or trading the other vehicle perhaps you should consider paying for Carfax so...
  20. A/C Dash Vent Replacement

    If it's already broken what is there to lose in trying? If it doesn't work then fall back the dash disassembly option.
