    Airbag light Recaro Seats

    After all these years I bought a set of 2013 Recaro seats (Boss 302) for my 2013 mustang GT. The Boss was totalled. Driver seat airbag went off, seat was fixed with a new airbag. Passenger seat never went off as no passenger in the car. Once I put the seats in I have 2 airbag codes. B1231 crash...

I thought was a bad coil pack and was waiting till CEL went to show which one, was not till car started idling like crap I went under the hood to...

    Mach-e unveil

    I don't care for it much, however it reminds me a bunch of the 4 door Wrangler back in 07. Everyone said it would be a massive fail. What happened is every guy wanted a Wrangler with kids now could sell there wife it's kid friendly as it's a 4 door and he gets his college ride back. Think from...

    5.4 3v Swap

    Only thing I know about a 5.4 swap is from the 2V new edge mustangs. Issue generally is you need adaptors to run the 4.6L manifold and at higher RPMs the 4.6L manifold doesn't pull enough air in and chokes the engine up. Now this isn't first hand experience just what I have heard and read over...

    3.8 V6 to MarkIV with Supercharger

    My biggest issue was I didn't have much support. I was 19, non of my friends was really into cars. Internet forums was there but not great like today. Put in the 8.8 rear and bunch of other stuff like a built AOD transmission. I was confused on the wiring, no one to help me so before I yanked...

    3.8 V6 to MarkIV with Supercharger

    I also am assuming it's a new edge swap. But he may have an 80s Mark VII fox with the 3.8L and doing a cobra swap? If it's a new edge it will need a K member as push rod to modular engine maybe brake booster. If it's a Fox Mark VII need k member and definitely a brake booster along with several...

I was just in a panic as I had till 10/31 to get fixed or can start being fined and would have thought as many cold start and miles on it they...

    O2 sensors/ Heaters not ready

    2013 Mustang GT automatic, in early September my car was ready for NJ inspection. I failed for 02 sensors and heaters not ready. At that time my car had PMAS 120 mm CAI, dyno tuned, and Pipes X pipe (factory cats are there and untouched). I went back to my tuner and he did adjust the 02 sensor...

    How many miles you got?

    2013 Mustang GT Picked it up 9-17-12 Has 69k miles on it. Not a daily driver. About 25k miles are from each year my wife and I go on a 3k mile or so driving vacation with it. It's has probably 40-ish 1/4 mile passes on it. Summer tires and winter tires for it. It gets driven!

    S197 2.3 Ecoboost?

    Am just really understanding now at 35 the point of going overboard on projects and when to move on. Am guessing since you have a 4.0L and it's probably your first mustang it has sentimental value. At end of the day it's a rental car really. Sorry but it's reality. There is a difference between...

    Ford Performance GT500 Brake Cooling Shields

    I have them also. Besides like mentioned replace the dust shields for better cooling they drop like 1/2 pound from each side of the car lol. I never liked the idea of dust shields on a Brembo brake car. I feel the factory shields could hold too much heat in and cause premature rotor warping

    96-04 T-Stat housing

    It's been a few years since I saw/ paid attention to a 3v up close. But the 2v thermostat the bolts are dead in the middle of the housing (I also own 03 GT 2v). I think 3V are slightly off set bolts so they are not interchangeable.

    Mysterious CEL

    From I understand P025a can be multiple things. Generally no start is included because it's a fuel delivery issue. If you have checked all the wiring and relay could be the pump or a clogged fuel filter. Unfortunately I believe the fuel pump and filter are one unit. Everything I just mentioned...

    OBD2 oil pressure info

    Am looking at getting an oil pressure sensor that will read through the OBD port. I have a base GT so never got anything but standard drive cluster. Does the mustang have an oil pressure sender that you can read the pressure through the OBD2 or is it just a dummy light system only? If it's just...

    All-season Tires

    I have AS-05 on my 03 GT, fantastic tire for the old 2V 4.6L. I was always curious how they would be with a coyote.

    All-season Tires

    Friend of mine use to swear by them on his SRT 4 neon. I remember them being ok. Has a fair amount of road noise from them. Never drove his car so can't speak for handling or traction. But SRT4 is also 240 HP vs 420 HP

    7.3/10AT

    Wow! I would love to drop a 7.3 in my new edge! I bet with all the leaps with VVT it would get same or better MPG than a 4V 4.6L and definitely make a new edge run 11s fully stock if Ford Racing (Performance) would make a controller kit for it
