    Mouse invasion

    Be sure to check your air filter too. They can get in there easy and they love to chew those things up. Don't drive the car with a chewed up air filter.

    Alarm system recommendation for an 06 GT..

    Hello, I want to put an alarm on my early model S197. I want something reliable and decently easy to install. Can anyone recommend a model/brand that has worked well in their S197?

    Suspension Mods - 06 Mustang GT

    Glad to hear they have held up well after 116k. I still have my stockers and I have no intentions of putting aftermarket on. I like a smooth ride.

    Next Generation Ford Mustang Could Grow to Match the Dodge Challenger

    Before I got my S197, I really really wanted a Camaro. Then I drove one. You can't see out of them. I mean it's crazy how bad the visiblity is. The Camaro loyalists love it because it's true to the old design. I think GM would sell a lot more Camaros if you could see out of the damn...

    Next Generation Ford Mustang Could Grow to Match the Dodge Challenger

    I'm thinking we'll see a co-developed V8, Ford and GM, kind of like they did with the 10-speed auto. That might give us another decade or so of V8... Your right it is on the way out and will eventually be unsustainable.

    Thinking about an 05-09 GT to daily...

    I daily my automatic '06 GT all summer. It's high geared, barely doing 2000 rpm at 70 mph. Gets around 25 on the highway. I think your on the right track. Depending on how much bumper to bumper traffic your dealing with in your commute, I would choose an automatic trans over an '09.

    Font suspension

    Did the poly bushings make it ride less smooth? Can you feel more vibration?

    stalls at stop light

    So it was the tune? Glad you figured it out. I was going to wild guess this and say fuel filter. It's easy to miss, as newer cars don't have them. I perfer to replace mine every 40k.

    2006 GT 8.8" rear diff fluid capacity

    The owners manual is of laughable quality on this car..it feels like an old Archie and Jughead comic. But I do agree that it has much useful info and is surprisingly well written. I looked in my Chilton's service manual, it also says to use 75W-140. I've chosen Redline synthetic, as it seems...

    2006 GT 8.8" rear diff fluid capacity

    Checked mine and your right. The manual does call for the heavy gear lube... That's funny, I would have thought 75w-90 would have worked fine for it....

    2006 GT 8.8" rear diff fluid capacity

    I have a 2006 GT with the stock rear end. The cover was leaking and it was replaced by the previous owner with an aftermarket cover that has heat sink fins, a drain plug, and a fill plug. (I think this is a Ford part..previous owner said it's what comes on the Shelbys of that year) I am going...

    Alternator brand recommendations ABS & code P0340

    Thanks for the update. Was it fairly easy to change? Did you have to take off the throttle body?

    2006 Saleen

    Like any used car, whatever he pays, be sure to budget a bit for repairs. Most of the time people are selling it because they want to be done spending money on it.

    Damaged 2014 Mustang GT

    Rear end looks to be shifted a bit, that could mean a lot of things. I have a Mustang with a salvage/rebuilt title. it drives great and you can barely tell it was an accident. 9k is concistent with what I've seen on ebay for that motor and tranny.

    2006 GT alternator update

    So I've seen a few threads advising older S197 owners to update to the 2010+ Motorcraft design. I've done some digging, and yes, the 2010 alternators look to be significatinly different. Smaller and more internal cooling. There seem to be 2 part numbers, one for a manual tranny and one for...

    So Im dumb and have let my car sit too long

    Most modern cars just have a sock-type thing on the inlet of the fuel pump in the tank. No filter. Basically the pump just craps the bed sooner. This isn't a Ford thing...almost all 2010+ cars do this

    The $25.00 Oil Catch Can

    Humm, I want to try this. Anyone know if the PCV quick-detach fittings (the plastic pieces with the green detach button) can be bought directly? I don't really want to cut up my stock hose. Part numbers would be great. The quick-detach fittings look a lot like the ones on the fuel filter...

    5r55 trans shifing into overdrive when turned off?

    Road America huh? Love that place. What was your top speed at the end of the big straight that goes up that hill?

    How does the 5r55s shifter work?

    I find that the tourque converter has a higher stall when I'm in 1-3. Those are the racing and squelling tires gears. Drive feels normal, and od off when I'm in town driving below 50. Ive not experience with Fords, but this tranny feels soild as hell
