Having gone through the "search" on issues that cause the front end "clunk", I still have a question. My front end "clunks" when reversing, especially when turning. Having checked the usual culprits it seems isolated to the struts. The drivers side strut at the top tower, does not rotate...

I noticed that the rubber vent hose on my diff is not really secured to anything and just flops around. Anyone know if it should have been secured in a bracket or something? Also seems a bit "cheap" of Ford to leave it with an pen end and nothing to stop a few bugs plugging it up!

I just had the dealer fix a small leak at the rear diff cover (under warranty) seam. I had expected that they would remove the cover, clean the mating faces, apply the RTV and reassemble. Instead they removed the entire diff assembly to do it. Is this the recommended procedure? I would...

ANyone tried the XMDirect tuner? Best Buy claims that its ompatable with the 2004 SAT-ready Ford radios. Otherwise, anyone have the Blaupunkt America as an add-on?

For those of you hooked in to Sirius, did you pony-up the $300+ and activate the OEM head unit (for the 2004 with the SAT option) or did you go with one of the portable units. In either case, have you been pleased with it in general or wish you'd done something different. I do not want to...

Is there a major difference bewteen the FG-986 and the FG-800A fuel filters? My dealer is telling me the -986 is a direct substitute. Thanks,

Can anyone post a copy of the accessory and blower belt routings? Did a search but the attachments had been deleted(?). Thanks,

Does the lower pully come off with the cage assembly, or does the pully need to be removed before the cage?

Based on a couple of recent threads, the (stock) S/C serpentine belt seems to have a short life. So if you have experienced a failure, how many miles did the belt last? I'm only at 9,000 miles and the belt looks in as-new condition, but I'm convinced enough reading these threads that this is...

Sorry - search is down!! Does anyone have the link to the old video where the guy is at a car show and is bullsh*##ing someone about his mustang, and the idiot interviewer believed everything he said.

Does anyone have insight into the basis that Ford uses for determing the needed oil capacity and just what the stock oil pump flow rates are? Presumably there is some logic behind the engine needing say 6 qts; 1 qt at the filter, x-number of qts circulating in the motor and then x-number qts in...

Hopefully this is not a repeat of information already available, but seemingly some good information on the T-56 gearboxes - downloadable too! http://www.ttcautomotive.com/English/products/T-5.asp and http://www.ttcautomotive.com/English/products/T-56.asp

For those with 2004's, did your Cobra come with the smooth black antena or the silver uneven one?

Found some good TSB Info at the mach 1 registry site which I hadn't seen too much of here yet: http://www.mach1registry.com/

A quick look at the situation says that changing the A/C drive belt is a b*tch to do. Is it as bad as it looks? Maybe even worse?

How often are folks checking (and replacing the supercharger lube? Could not find any maintenance or lube recommendations in the handbook.

The SVT Handbook addendum calls for the use of the 5-20W "Supreme" Ford Oil (no Ford part or spec references) yet the 5-20W oil from Motorcraft refers to itself as just a "premium synthetic blend". Are these one and the same, or is there a different versions of the Ford 5-20W? Thanks,

Want to send a message of appreciation to the Forum members for the good info and insights. Based on the info scanned over the past few weeks helped greatly in getting a good oversight of the problems/issues with the Cobra, and helped complete a more comprehensive check out at the dealer. The...
