    Rain water leak to inside cabin

    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...

    Visor replacement

    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...

    FOR SALE: Michelin Pilot Sport 4S Summer tires - used but FREE

    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...

    Front Tire Wear - Suggestions

    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...

    Rear wheel rotation when rear end is raised - MYear 2010

    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...

    Tire rotation - PS4S

    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...

    Rear axle bearing bad?

    I think I may have a rear wheel bearing going. At very slow speeds coasting I hear a slight groan noise on the right side. My rear tires need replacement but I doubt they are making the racket. I haven't had my rear end apart for several years since my pinion replacement but if I recall it's a...

    TPMS failure - tire location identifying

    My 2010 intermittently gives me a tire pressure error although it doesn't display any information as to what tire may be having the issue. I replaced all four a few years back (replacement set from Ebay but they were Motorcraft and only a year or so old). Is there information I can pull to see...

    Nations Alternator for the 2010 GT500

    Since my car is down for some service and work I called Nations at ask about their alternator since I might be stressing my stock one out with the BAP, Craig pump, triple bypass fans, higher rad fan and a few other small acc. at idle. I was not overly impressed since they didn't really answer...

    Rough idle -getting worse over time

    I have a 2010 GT500 with the VMP Gen2R kit, dual pump boosters, 69mm VMP twin jet, JLT 123mm, VMP triple HE, and a few other things. The Injectors are the Deatschwerks 95b/hr (1000cc). Dyno was about 635 hp / 635 torque when last done - tuned for 93 and only use 93. I was going to have this...

    Rear end starting to whine

    I have noticed that at highway speeds - like 65-80 - my differential is starting to make more noise. Last time I had the rear end apart was around 30K to replace the pinion bearing. At that time the gear tolerances were right in the middle of the specifications...before I started the work and...

    Battery removal - electroncis drained process

    If I remove the battery and want to drain the electronics of all old errors / codes using the 10 watt 1K ohm resister process (shorting the neg and pos using the resistor for 30 minutes), what gets erased in the process that may cause an issue? I assume the SCT loaded tune says intact. I know...

    Windshield visor sticker removal

    Anyone pull their warning stickers off their visors? Mine have been on since new and I was looking at them and thinking of pulling them off but not sure what kind of a mess the glue may leave behind on the black cloth visors.

    Clutch / hydraulic throwout bearing question

    I am curious....does the hydraulic throwout bearing perform any type of self adjusting as the clutch material wears down? (Or does the clutch pedal grab point slowly rise as the clutch material wears?) I never paid attention to it when I had my stock 2010 setup. With the new 2014 clutch...

    JLT oil separators - $160 spent wisely and poorly

    Results on a 2010 stock block having the original SC upgraded to a VMP Gen 2R along with some other top mounted mods. After 25K plus miles I have never had a single drop of oil accumulate in the drivers side separator....total waste of money. On the other hand the passenger side is emptied...

    BMR A-Arm support bar ??

    Bought and installed on my 2010 GT500 since it was fairly cheap ($69) and I needed some other parts anyway. Is this just another gimmick or does it really do something? I left the stock one on too so I don't see why this would be an improvement over the factory one.

    Slave cylinder replacement

    I changed my clutch (2010 to newer 2014) and was thinking of putting in the 2014 GT500 clutch master cylinder that I bought a year or two ago. I remember installing the metal head on my current 2010 clutch master cylinder and I have an extra head. Will this same head (with setscrew) work on the...

    Clutch replacement

    Warming up so I started my clutch replacement. Hopefully I don't run into too many issues. Questions....I am reading ahead and looking at docs that are probably 10-12 years old. Is the Motorcraft XG-8 lubricant still the current choice for the plate splines/shaft? It also refers to using...

    Front and Rear tire sizes

    Any reason why I shouldn't use the rear tire size on the front too. 2010 with stock tire sizes on 19" factory rims. If I recall someone stated the stock size rears will not rub in the front wheel wells. I think it would slightly lower the front and increase the rake a hair.... I think the fronts...

    Oil Filter change

    If you use the Ford Racing filters how often are you changing the filter with the oil. I put about 4K - 5K on between oil changes and was changing the filter with the oil every time. I'm starting to think its overkill and should push it to at least 2 oil changes or once a year...since I put...

    Disabling PATS

    Question...I read that the tuner can disable the PATs system on the car. What actually happens if this is done and what does it affect? Does the security alarm still work along with the door locking/unlocking features of the keyfob? Does disabling the PATs only affect the security function of...

    Windshield replacement - best option

    Had a rock hit my window from a car coming towards me! Loud hit but I couldn't find any damage and then noticed a hole where my registration sticker was and of course it is spreading. What's the best service option for replacing the windshield? Ford dealerships ? I'm afraid of using any...

    Dual clutch plate reason?

    I haven't pulled the clutch yet to replace it (slipping) but received all the replacement parts. What I don't understand is how a dual clutch disc in a manual (I suspect two clutch plates..? correct ?) improves anything. We're using hydraulics so any heavy spring loads could be overcome on a...

    Brake Pad options - recommendations

    I have a 2010 with the 2013/14 Ford brake upgrade kit with the Brembo 6 piston. Looking for a set of pads without breaking the bank that are equal to or better than the Ford stock pads for stopping power along with trying to reduce some of the dust (I think the Ford pads in the kit were...
