    2012 GT with 124K on it...do I have a bad pass side rear axle bearing? Video inside

    Thought I noticed something last week, but thought it may be the road or my tires. Sound gets louder when going 40-55 mph going straight and cutting the wheel to the left. Disappears when going to the right. Doesn't matter if I'm cruising, clutch in, accelerating or braking. No vibration in the...

    AC blower running at erratic speeds

    2012 GT. Base model with manual fan control. I noticed about 3 weeks ago that it sounds like it drops speed(and airflow drops off as well) randomly. Meaning I can be fine for most of the day, then at any moment it will slow, then speed up, slow. Yesterday I had it on max and it felt and sounded...

    My car has the white wired dy-1165 and I ordered the blue wired dy-1185. Will it work, or should I return for the 65?

    My 2012 just hit 100K, I wanna go another 100K with it, what maintenance?

    Its obviously had plenty of oil changes(using the motorcraft part synthetic), new battery and new brake pads. But otherwise, nothing else. It runs fantastic. Transmission makes a little noise, but really nothing to speak of. Shifts easy, clutch still holds great. Starts right up. I guess its...

    Brembo rear brakes wear fast?

    I thought I had a tsb issue with the rear spring clips. Apparently I have the upgraded clips already. I notice the pad is nearly gone, hence the squeak. I have 47000 miles and have a good deal highway miles. Not sure I've ever done a burnout using the brake on this car. Is the proportioning...

    Creek in front drivers suspension

    Lowered on sportlines back in October. Stock struts and mounts(they stayed together when unbolting from the car). Started about a month ago. Only when wheel is turned right and moving. I only did a quick visual with the wheel turned and didn't see anything. Gonna pull the wheel today. Maybe...

    Do they make skid plates for our mustangs?

    Jesus H christ....since installing the sportlines just over a week ago, I have scraped more than since Ive owned the car. First it was a crazy exit out of a gas station that hit the H pipe(I coulda took the turn a bit better), but then I got stuck on a street in the French Quarter that was being...

    Installed sportlines also today. Car doesn't go straight on shifts

    I installed sportlines and a adjustable panhard. Centered it immediately after setting it down. Took it out and rolled into it in 2nd. When I hit the 2-3 shift hard it spun and the car veered to the right. What adjustment do I need to make?

    Love bugs etched clear coat on bumper

    I have a rotary buffer, but even with a wool pad and some 3m compound, the marks are still visible in light. What would be the best course of action here? Wet sand? Or just remove the bumper and have the whole thing re cleared?

    Gps mounting

    I use my gps pretty much constantly. My 4-5 year old one is dying. Gonna get a new one, just wondering if anyone is using the "sandbag" dash mount, and does really hold, or is it gonna go flying when I stomp on it or take a fast turn?

    Who has the latest sct updates?

    I've not updated in 6 months. Currently have a tune on my car, but I need to upload a new tune and datalog. If I update, do I return to stock before updating the device, then update the tune? Any issues with the new firmware?

    Anyone put in a 12V socket in the console thats on only when the key is on?

    I need to do this to ease pairing of a bluetooth adapter I got. I dont have the ambient lighting package if that makes a difference. Not looking to replace the "always on" 12v socket in the console, but add another one.

    Cleaning the brembo packaged wheels with brake dust remover?

    I have these wheels. I usually clean my wheels with a watered down aluminum brightner I get from OReileys auto parts to remove break dust. I noticed these are painted. Should I avoid this cleaner and if so, what cleaner will help remove break dust with minimal scrubbing(ie, Id love to just hose...

    Audio thread for 11+ mustangs?

    Hope I didn't miss it, but I'm interested what you guys have done to improve the sound. I have the base system and I can't take it. I couldn't find any wiring schematics to add an amp, anyone have any or know if the base system uses an external amp like the shaker systems?
