    My CarMax / MaxCare GT500 Experience

    I had a similar experience with my warranty through my credit union on my 2012. No where near your cost but a rear end rebuild at $2300. The company sent a rep out to look at the car and signed off. I walked out paying $100 deductible and they paid for my rental car. The dealership carries a 4...

    A little goofy, but...who here has the highest mileage GT500?

    I just turned 60k on my 2012 a few weeks back. Had 40k when I bought it in April of 18. I know it's not me but there is a guy on the GT500 Facebook group with 198k miles though.

    Extended Vehicle Warranty

    I've been out of the game awhile but there was an acceptable loss of freon from a sealed system. Never the less they should have added UV dye to the system and let it run to diagnose a major leak or just accepted loss over time. When I trained with R134a it was something ridiculous like up to...

    Extended Vehicle Warranty

    The dealership quoted me diagnostic time but it wasn't on the bill. Unless the warranty company paid separate I think dealer added it to the repair time. Sent from my SM-G955U using the svtperformance.com mobile app

    Extended Vehicle Warranty

    Guys just wanted to share my experience with Mercury insurance for mechanical issues. When I bought my 2012 GT500 with 41K on the clock I didn't think I'd be seeing any issues this soon. I started hearing a noise in the rearend, I thought it was gear whine at first. Then it seemed to get a...

    Anyone have a FRPP intake resonator delete tube?

    You could clock the rubber connectors where you didnt see the JLT or get some generic ones. Not stock but also not super flashy. Sent from my SM-G955U using the svtperformance.com mobile app

    Anyone have a FRPP intake resonator delete tube?

    I found some on closeout at Ebay when I looked last year. I ended up just using the JLT version for what it's worth. Sent from my SM-G955U using the svtperformance.com mobile app

    American Muscle working with Lund tuning?

    I don't hate AM either I do love their quick shipping and the SVT discount doesn't hurt. Just has to feel weird having all those power pack GT500 videos out there using Bama tuning but this one we're not going to touch.

    American Muscle working with Lund tuning?

    They installed a Whipple on this car. I'm wondering if American Muscle is parting ways with Bama since they used Lund for tuning here. Sent from my SM-G955U using the svtperformance.com mobile app

    Rear suspension upgrades

    Car had non adjustable Steeda lowers when I bought it. After talking to the shop doing the work they recommend doing adjustable lowers and non adjustable uppers rather than adding adjustable uppers now. I do want all that shiny hammer tone black underneath too. Sent from my SM-G955U using the...

    Rear suspension upgrades

    Guys after my pulley swap I've definitely seen the need for more traction in the rear. I'm looking at non adjustable upper control arms, single adjustable lower control arms, adjustable panhard bar, and lca drop brackets. I started looking at BMR products and wanted to know if their was a...

    Need help after accident.

    I'm back. The diminished value report has been completed and sent to the insurance company. There were some arguments about a prior glass claim made by previous owner. That has been settled so now hopefully to the important part. Hopefully a new update in a week or so maybe a resolution. Sent...

    New Member from SoCal Help

    This is my .02 cents. My dealings with dealerships have been lackluster at best. Most haven't none much about modified cars or don't care to know. The prices they charge for parts and labor I'd start looking for a reputable local performance shop who can give you advice and work with you. If...

    MGW II Shfiter for GT500 Question

    The MGW comes with dynamat and specific instructions on where to put it. They also have a foam dampener to use in concert with the factory cloth piece. I haven't noticed any additional NVH after the install. The shifting is night and day. I could move the shifter around while it was in gear with...

    Need help after accident.

    Alright everyone time for another update. The bodyshop finally was able to get the car back together with decent fitment in the lines. The paint match is pretty close. The stripes look good at first glance but let's leave that one alone. I've started the diminished value claim against the...

    Ford Sync update for 2012 GT500

    There is something wrong with the Ford site. I tried randomly for months before one day it magically works and downloads the file. I called and spoke with their tech support and was told it's a known issue. Theres a thread on the ford.gt500.com forum about it too. Sent from my SM-G955U using...
