I am wondering what the "collective wisdom" around here has to say about the pros/cons of putting your car up on jack stands for winter storage. BTW, I know some will say put on some Blizzaks and drive it, but I have no interest in getting salt and crud all over my car.
I have been noticing what seem like high cylinder head temps. I am not getting any kind of code or warning and everything is running fine, but they seem a bit higher than what others have described for CHTs.
Cruising on the highway at about 75mph, I am seeing CHTs of 210-212 degrees with inlet...
I am looking for a stubby antenna for my 2020 convertible. I hardly ever listen to FM radio (pretty much just satellite and/or Spotify), so I don't mind a reduction in reception. Anyone have any recommendations?
I normally avoided extended warranties and "self insure" but I am thinking that our cars have so many complex systems, that maybe I should consider it. Since my mileage is likely to be low (probably less than 5,000 miles per year), a Premium Plan from Granger isn't too expensive and would...
So there are lots of threads about the center speaker and there seems to be consensus that it is garbage. While I am no audiophile, I am starting to come to the that conclusion myself. So I am curious as to what most of the folks here have decided to do about it. For those who have decided to...
A surprisingly well written article from the Atlantic popped into my newsfeed today: https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2022/08/stick-shift-manual-transmission-cars/671078/
He does a pretty good job capturing the notion that driving a manual transmission is about more than just...
I stumbled across this video on mixed mode presets which are supposed to work on Sync3, but presets seem to be unique to each audio source. I would really like to have one set of presets across both FM and Satellite.
I recently acquired a light duty DA polisher with an 8mm throw. I intend to use it solely to apply sealants and wax NOT for paint correction (if/when I need that done, I will leave it to the pros). My CA Special has side stripe decals, and I have never used a power polisher on vehicle with...
So I just noticed something today (I guess I am getting blind in my old age). My GT/CS, which I bought used with 965 miles on it, has white stitching on the headrests instead of red. All the other stitching is red and the VIN checks out as CS equipped car. The car was manufactured in late...
I ended up with a GT/CS not because I wanted that package, but because that was how the car that came closest to my specifications happened to be equipped. I really like some of the features, like the grill treatment and the interior trim details, but I have mixed feelings about the side scoops...
Can anyone out there recommend a good glass cleaner/polish to remove water spots and other contamination? I've tried using CG glass cleaner, but it seems to be more of a "surface" cleaner and it did not seem to lift out water spots. In the past, I have used Zaino Clear-View Polish (I have an...
Any thoughts on using a car cover indoors? There is not a lot of room between the front of my Mustang and the steps leading into the house and I am concerned about inadvertent bumps and scrapes from grocery bags and packages and the like. Also, would like to keep dust off the car during the...
Does anyone else get a flapping noise from the passenger seatbelt on the highway with the top down? Had my car on the highway with the top down for the first time yesterday and there was a pretty steady flapping sound from the passenger side which I am pretty sure is coming from the seatbelt (no...
