I thought they were lead acid too...or AGM? They are too expensive for the price...if they came with a 6 year warranty no questions asked I might consider them but for only 3 years that doesn't instill a lot of faith that they are any better than some of the others out there at half the price.

I just had to replace the battery (40R) in my GT500. Left the doors open while cleaning and it never really came back to life after that so it was somewhat my fault...caused an early death. I have been buying the Samsclub Duracell batteries for my cars and I seem to get at least 6+ years out of...

Is there any real reason why I couldn't reverse the 4 S tires on a rim? They are not unidirectional tires and can be swapped between sides...... but that won't help if the insides are wearing....which may be front end struts but not ready to replace. So if I notice wear on my new set on the...

On my 2010 Gt500 I still use the stock tires sizes and the fronts are 255/40ZR19. Michelin makes TWO versions of this tire as listed below. The first one is the one specified by Ford (as it has FOR in its title description. The second one listed is a generic one that Michelin makes. I asked...

Spend last two days on an off pulling up the carpet and inspecting the engine and fender bays. My cowling areas were completely clean and the rubber duckies worked as they were supposed to ...still pulled and cleaned anyway. Used urethane to seal the seams in the cowling top and around the hood...

I have the well known water issue in the passenger side ...usually always collects in the back floorboard. My two cowling drains are clean and flow water well. I had it parked on a hill facing upwards during the last rain storm so that is when it took on water. 2010 Model Year. Read a lot of...

I have a 23 Lariat 2L ECO 4WD with 4K tow. Have 15K on it and getting 27--28 average on rural roads in NY. Rides nice at all speeds and I use it as a roundabout. Want good mileage so I am not putting large tires or tune on it. Plus Ford has done a few software upgrades so I would think a tune...

Did it bolt up using the same mounting holes and use the same plastic snap connector? I already have power so that's not an issue. Where the replacements from a Mustang GT or 500 and any idea what year would fit?

Anyone ever replace the stock visor with one that comes with a built in slider? The stock one really doesn't block the sun very well on the drivers side during long trips since it does not move. My Maverick has one that actually slides on a shaft so it is much more useable but unfortunately has...

I am very happy with the Mechman I bought for my 2010. No issues...way more than enough amperage and higher voltages at idling....no more worries. I rewired the grounds and main power cables with the new alt and it was worth the effort. I no longer have any anxiety over power issues. Read...

I have the same exact winter conditions you have and the same temps in my garage during the winter. Rarely goes under 40 unless it is below 0 outside. I leave car in garage for 4 or 5 months. Use Michelins but I have never noticed any permanent flat spot after they have warmed up and driven for...

Hey...not sure if I have seen your car on the road or not. Mine is a 2010 Kona Blue with white halo lights in the fog lights...so it is easy to spot...never seen another GT500 with halos on the fog lights. Summer only tires so it's garaged till spring. I always watch for other GT500s but there...

Tires are gone

Final Update..... I have had ZERO issues with my car since I put in the Mechman and rewired all the grounds. Car put away but I put a few thousand on it since the upgrade. No PATS failures, no more rough idles, no hard accel shutdowns, no engine dies --- no power issues of any kind. Car runs...

GONE I have two of these tires that I pulled from the front (19 inch rims 9.5" wide) because they started to cup slightly and I could feel the slight thumping at slow speeds like 10mph. At higher speeds and even high speed pulls I did not feel any issues but since I couldn't reverse the tires...

Stock springs, struts and shocks still... 2010 with 65k... Looking at struts and shock options... Doubt i want it lowered in front.. too many road issues in ny... Back drop would be between .5 and 3/4 most if i do it

I actually had this set of fronts road balanced twice...once when installed and then again about 1K later when I have the front end aligned by Ford who didn't have to make any weight changes. Didn't have them road balanced tested before yanking them off and replaced but kept them in case the new...

Yeh I may have to every two years or so...going with cheaper tires on the front...or replacing parts to see if I can stop it.

Need suggestions on front end issues for excessive tire wear. History - Both front and rear Michelin 4S summer tires installed. Pressure set to 32. After 14K miles the front insides were badly worn--replaced along with a front end algnment. Back tires had even wear. Front end alignment specs...

If the 4S are the summer only version and not the all season (not sure about them) you can swap from side to side but the insides would still be on the inside after the swap. The summer high performance 4S can only be mounted one way so you can't swap it over the rim. The all season may be...

If you have a 2010 stock brake system (4 piston front) then there are a number of options available and Rockauto has a large assortment of various prices.,,including the stock pads from Ford assuming you don't mind the dust. I believe the stock pads are semi-metallic even though some pad...

The last time I had my car rear end up supported by the axle tubes I noticed that the car prevented me from powering the drivetrain more than idle speed (engine actually would not rev up much more than idle) which is all I needed then. However I need to redo this and speed up the drivetrain...

I don't think Ford will ever put a manual or even an engine larger than the Eco 2.0 in this vehicle. I have a 2023 Lariat with 4K AWD and it has more than enough power and pickup with this light vehicle. It's too bad that they didn't push it to 5K towing since 4K is really an oddball amount...

Anyone actually rotate their tires from side to side? I have used nothing but Michelin Pilot Sport 4S (summer, non directional tires) since the original Goodyears. Backs are new but the fronts have half their tread and wear appears even. I was thinking of rotating while they were off but I...

I have always used AC Delco Blower oil on the stock units and VMP unit. No issues and I change around 30K. Just make sure you put in the correct amount and suck out as much of the old as you can. I know on many of the VMP units they changed the original amount required and the procedure - you...
