    I think my clutch is dying...

    I was driving home a few minutes ago and I think my clutch is about to die. I went to shift and the clutch pedal had almost no tension until it was about 3/4 of the way in. The pedal was very loose. Does it sound like I'm going to have to replace the clutch or is it something else? I'm...

    Tires for daily driver...

    I need new tires for my '01. It's got the stock 17" rims and right now it has Firestone Firehawks (245/45/17) on it. I need a good tire for everyday driving (including rain), but I want something that's more durable than the firehawks were. Also, can I go wider than 245 on the stock 17"...

    "Night" speed limit?!?! It was 6AM!!!

    I was over in east texas and had my cruise control set at 78, it was exactly on the line. 6 to 8 over has always been enough to gain a little time but not get any extra attention. I get pulled over and he tells me I was doing 81 and that the speed limit is 65. The speed limit is 70 BUT the...

    maintenance: They fix one problem and cause ten more

    I have a 2001 Cobra convertible.....First off, is it best to take your car in to an SVT dealership to get maintenance performed on it? It seems like every time I take my car in, they break more things than they fix. In May I had to get the clutch fixed because it was squealing (throw out...

    faint squeal from clutch tob...how urgent?

    2001 cobra convertible---There's a squeal that I've been hearing at idle for the last week or so. Only loud enough to hear from outside the car or with the windows/top down. I searched the forum and I think it's the tob on the clutch, since it stops when I put any pressure on it. The car...

    2001 convertible, two questions

    (2001 convertible) When the top is up, if you look over the back seat there is, I don't know what to call it, but a section of material that extends from the back of the seat to the base of the top. On this, there are two flaps that are velcroed down. What are these for? Also, what's the...

    Fog lamp rewire

    I really want to do this mod, but I'm a little worried about screwing something up in the process. I found a post that walks through it step by step but it was written for an 03/04 and I have an 01 convertible. Are they the same? Also, will I have any warranty issues if I do something like...

    small dent?

    I have a small dent (about the size of a penny) in the back panel just behind the door (01 cobra convertible). Someone opened a door into it. For something so small it's really an eyesore. I've probably had a dozen people point it out to me in the two months since it happened. As far as...
