  1. Mustang S550 rear squeaking noise, wind sheer and rust

    I had a rattle coming from the rear passenger and went weeks trying to track it down. It sounded like it was coming from the inside - I tore out all of the interior and then realized it was coming from the outside. Turned out to be a bad Steeda shock mount. So I replace it and all is good. Then...
  2. My quest to change the MT-82 transmission fluid

    When I dumped my oil and saw the discolored swirls I figured it was normal - that is until I dumped my buddies oil and saw none. And he had 15K more miles than I do. It is what it is, not a whole lot I can do about it so I'll try not to obsess over it. I just hope previous owner didn't take...
  3. My quest to change the MT-82 transmission fluid

    I didn't even think about a magnetic drain plug until I got the fluid dumped and saw the discolorations. By that time sourcing one was too late, so I just went with it. I did not confirm, but both drain plug and fill plug appear to be identical. There were no crush washers on these plugs...
  4. My quest to change the MT-82 transmission fluid

    I recently bought a 2017 GT with 34K miles, I assume the transmission fluid is original so I wanted to change it. I started the research on what to put in and holy crap you guys, there's so much dissension on this subject. People running a cocktail of fluids trying to fix hard shifts, or...
  5. Anybody using clear bra on their cars

    I've seen some that when they get old, they'll crack and fade or yellow - and when you try to pull them off they can take off parts of the clear coat. Granted, technology may have changed some since then and the ones I saw that did this were pretty old - maybe tech has improved since then. Were...
  6. Motorcraft MT82 XL-18 Additive

    I've been doing research on this also as I'm getting ready to change out my fluids and came across the same thing.
  7. Steeda Premature Bearing Failure

    The parts were already on the car. When I took the shock off, there was a bunch of dirt and debris in the upper part of the bearing next to the locking nuts - I think I saw others that came with a protective boot to keep dirt out of there - and I wonder if that has something to do with the failure.
  8. Steeda Premature Bearing Failure

    New to me 2017 GT with Steeda springs and shocks. I had a really bad rattle in the rear passenger side, sounded like it was coming from inside. After quite a bit of troubleshooting I come to find it's the bearing in the upper shock mount. Anybody else have issues with these upper mounts? I've...
  9. Drivers side oil separator

    Thank you, that is very helpful. It sounds like based on your experience and others who posted, it's not needed on drivers side unless I track the car and/or drive it hard, or so it would seem.
  10. Drivers side oil separator

    Sorry if this is a re-post, maybe my google-fu sucks but I could not find the answer to my question. 2017 GT with Ford Performance Power Pack 2. I've purchased the Ford Performance oil separator but it appears to be passenger side only. I see a similar product that goes to drivers side but it's...
  11. Anybody running Amsoil DCT in their 6MT?

    2017 GT Premium with 34K miles. Looking to change out tranny fluid and I'm an avid Amsoil fan. Though on Amsoil website it suggests using their Amsoil DCT fluid. What? Their DCT fluid is even listed as an automatic transmission fluid. I haven't had any problems or significant notchyness or...
