  1. What is your oil change frequency?

    Service with Ford as per schedule, every 12 months or 15K Kms ($299 AUD fixed and gives me free road side assist for next 12 months worth about $110 AUD), then interim oil and filter change at 7.5K Kms.
  2. How many S550 Owners don't use all the Tech available to them in their S550?

    I love using the adaptive cruise control in low speed school zones. It's like hitting the pit lane speed limiter!🤩
  3. Deck Lid and Ford Quality Issues

    I actually repaired mine myself. Removed the tail light and adjusted the fit with a couple of rubber grommets. The tail light fit is definitely the problem. Photo to follow. Cheers!
  4. 6spd manual durability

    Can also report mine has been flawless. I'm thinking the people who have had problems are just not using them properly. I have also noticed on my 2020, that it has actually gotten better with more kms of use. At 10K Kms, it is more silky smooth than at say 5K Kms. The 2018- cars have the...
  5. Deck Lid and Ford Quality Issues

    Yep. Mine is the same... Really annoying to look at. Even tried replacing the deck lid panel, but it did not work. I think it is a problem with the trunk metal shaping! Damn!!
  6. 6spd manual durability

    From my research on hubs, there's quite few options out there including Ford Performance. I too am wondering if anyone has experience with this?
  7. 6spd manual durability

    Forgot to mention, the guys that won the 6 hour used 10W/50 engine oil.
  8. 6spd manual durability

    Yep! I’ve done this to death. And Herrod Performance here in Straya, have recommended the following. Roush oil cooler, Herrod GT350 diff cooler, no answer on trans cooler although, Mishimoto have one, but needs to be tapped. Then I went further and asked the guys that won the 6 hour here. Rear...
  9. 6spd manual durability

    Syntax that is.
  10. 6spd manual durability

    Sorry. And yes, I do have Ford Performance short shifter and Steeda gearbox bushing. The thing that really made a difference was the Castrol Stanx oil change out! Simple fix.
  11. 6spd manual durability

    If you’re jamming into gears unrelentingly, somethings gunna give!
  12. 6spd manual durability

    Mate. I guess one of my problems is that I am a Mate. I guess one of the issues here is that I’m a former race car driver at reasonably high level. I’m only stating that as race car drivers, real ones, deal with their machinery and have mechanical sympathy. For that reason, I don’t think I’m...
  13. Strange noise from transmission.

    Sounds like thrust bearing... (some call it a thrust race). I'd be taking that video to your dealer.
  14. 6spd manual durability

    I have to weigh in and say I have also never experienced this lockout issue. That's even during serious repeated launches trying to make it do it! I've been waiting for it. But. Hasn't happened.
  15. 6spd manual durability

    I was worried about that in my 2020 GT. However, after fitting the very inexpensive Steeda transmission bushing and changing the oil out for Castrol Syntax, it's now that much better. And, there's more. A mustang FN GT just one its class in basically a stock showroom spec 6 hour race at our...
