My 08 Shelby GT Vert has a squeak when hitting a bump that comes from the rear, perhaps the urethane sway bar bushings. WD40 stops it for a while. Any SGT owners with similar prob?
Also, a vibration in 5th gear under load, mostly around 40 mph. Could be exhaust system.???

5th gear at 40 is most likely just the transmission bogging. what rear gearing do you have? if its 3.55s or lower I'm near certain that's what you're hearing

Car has 3:55.
Drone happens at a number of different speeds even at 60 & 70 if under a load.
I'm going to take it to the Dealer as car still under warranty.
Thanks for the come back.
Wish other Shelby GT owners would reply. Car is not a GT500.
