[Phenom5.0]

Ordered a 2019.

I've been wanting to swap the steering wheel to a GT350 when I get the car. However through looking it seems like all the gt350 or similar wheels none are compatible with the 2018 or probably the 2019 as well.

If I plan to swap over the harness, back plate, switches and paddle shifters would that work?

I believe the wheel itself is compatible as far as the splines etc. The issue is that the button layout changed for 2018. If those could be swapped everything should be kosher. That’s a big if though. I guess you could always sell the wheel if you couldn’t get it to work. Let us know!

Yeah I figured if the wheel itself was entirely swapped switches and harness it should work.

They have one up on Amazon I may get it and if it doesn’t work amazon may take it back lol.

Assuming the title isn't branded or salvage, you'll definitely have powertrain warranty left, as it lasts 5yrs 60k miles. Even if the "in service date" was late 2014, you'll have that until 2019.

As far as bumper to bumper... The only way that would still exist is if the in service date of the vehicle is after this day in 2015, which is certainly possible. You'll want to contact Ford or do a vin search. Most Ford dealerships, if you call them, will tell you if you give them the VIN. You could also pay for a CarFax report, which I'd definitely recommend if you're looking to purchase the car.

If it has a branded/salvage title, the factory warranty would be void.

Thanks something is grinding when I turn the wheel left and begin moving

Definitely take it in ASAP! They can let you know the in service date too.

So my car pulls to the left on throttle and relieves to the right when I let off at highway speeds.

I have IRS alignment bushings lockouts and the steeda RR brace.

Any thoughts? This is before and after an alignment.

African or European?

Run away.

No, really. On a solid-axle leaf-sprung car that behavior used to indicate loose u-bolts and resulting axle twist. I wonder if there is a similar condition for IRS cars.

Looks like it's my wheel bearing assy.

Make sure you check with the PKB disengaged!

only had my car a few months. brand new. got my oil changed at 1800 miles. so heres the question.....does your oil pressure gauge bounce around alot under full throttle? it hovers around 40 normally but it will jump up to 100 if i smash on it. i never really noticed this before i had oil changed....but i could have easily missed it. Dipstick shows oil at normal level. I put PUP 5-30w in

It just seems like it moves around more than it should

Perfectly normal. Coyote engine has very tight tolerances and therfore 100 psi is just fine.
