[QUOTE="103, post: 73237, member: 2142"] I bought my Cobra back in May and have never had engine problems. My tranny died in two months after going tot he track once or twice, so it was replaced on warranty because, frankly, the tranny didn't die from the racing. Somehow, I lost all but 1 and 5. Anyway, Ford sent a T45on accident and for the past 4 months I and my dealership have been trying to get Ford to admit to the wrong tranny and send the right one. Well, they kept saying a T45 could not fit in my car (how did they get it into the 99? :-? :cuss: :mj: ). Anyway, my dealership got so fed up that they ordered a 3650 for me on their own credit and installed it with a new clutch I bought. (For free) So tranny probs are the only ones I have had. Although, I wonder if running around with retarded timing has anything to do with it? My TA is set to 12 degrees, but the knock sensor should be retarding my timing in response (this is about to be dealt with). So it is running 9 or 10 degrees, right? I dunno if 1 degree makes any difference, though... Also, my engine was built when the 2000 Cobra was supposed to go to production, so I have an old engine. Has anyone noticed differences in build dates and ping reports? Sorry for the long post, 103 [/QUOTE]
