    2014 Mustang GT driveshaft, less than 200 miles

    Hi. I looked it up. Is this driveshaft for a manual or auto trans? (Does it matter?) Thanks.

    I want a 2012-2013 Ford Mustang Boss 302 in good shape.

    I don't know if you'd be interested but there are some on Autotrader in the Toronto area. (About 70 miles from Buffalo.) The Canadian dollar is weak right now, $70,000 Canadian = about $50,000 US. The ones I saw are low mileage cars. With nice cars the owners usually don't drive them in the...

    Just bought a 2008 V6.

    Congrats! I just got a Mustang too, but I'm 80 yo in Oct. Crazy. I had a '65 convertible in 1967. It had a 4 bbl and a 4 spd and the awesome 289. Now I have 2014 coupe, 6 MT, with 420 HP and I laugh like a maniac whenever I drive this car. Looking fwd to hearing what you do to the car.

    Flywheel Torque

    Maybe there's a way to determine how much the 60 degrees "extra" adds to the 15 ft-lbs. (?) Maybe somebody can answer that. If you have not already done so, I would watch Eric O. at SMA on youtube. He has a video of a clutch installation which is very good. I have done dozens of clutches...

    Steering Wheel Lights Don't Work - Reset SJB? 2014 GT Manual

    Congrats on the troubleshooting Doc. Very impressive. Re the pony projection, I think that might be part of the premium package. I have that on my car too. Mine is a 2014 GT Premium coupe with 6MT and 30K miles which I just got in May. It's never been winter driven and is pristine! Too bad...

    TPMS Help

    I bought the small TPMS "trainer" for $20 and it worked on my car. I used the procedure outlined above. It seems to me that if the horn honks when you are training a particular wheel sensor, then the sensor and the trainer are working. You may have to deviate from the sequence in the...

    TPMS Help

    This is really a longshot and may sound kind of dumb, but I've heard that having a phone charger in the car can interfere with the DTCs. Just a thought. Or did you get it sorted out? My car is also a '14 GT and as of now the tires do not have any TPMS. The original owner did not have them set...

    2014 Idle Hunting High Fuel Trim

    I have only a basic knowledge but we recently had a similar issue on our Ford Edge with the 3.5L V6. The purge valve or "solenoid valve" is part of the evap system. The purge valves are notorious for this type of problem. A bad purge valve can affect fuel trims etc. Luckily, they are not...

    What brakes do I have? 2014 GT MT

    Thanks for the replies. I appreciate it. I can't get over this car. I bought it from the original owner in May; it had 30,000 miles on it. Several expensive extras but not a spec of rust or a mark on it. Amazing. I've done all the maintenance items now. Car runs and drives like a dream. Knock...

    Driveshaft

    I've seen several youtube videos about a one piece driveshaft versus the original two piece with hanger bearing. I'm skeptical, although the one piece is for sure lighter and simpler. But Ford must have had good reasons for using an expensive and more complicated solution. What do you guys...

    Spark Plug Advice

    I would most definitely change the coolant. It's easy and not expensive. Use only distilled water plus a quality coolant. I have a similar situation, just bought a 2014 GT with low mileage. When I drained the rad only 5 L came out. I did not make any effort to drain the rest. Total...

    What brakes do I have? 2014 GT MT

    Thanks. I serviced the brakes and although the pads looked good after some cleaning, the one slider pin on the front right was seized solid. Glad I found it. I could not get it free. Since Ford has discontinued the bracket, I had to buy a caliper and bracket in order to get a new one. I...

    What brakes do I have? 2014 GT MT

    Hi Guys, Sorry for the basic questions but this car is new to me. My front rotors are 13 1/4" in diameter and 30 mm thick. I have the sticker from the window from when the car was delivered, but It doesn't say anything about brakes. I know they're not Brembos. They have two piston calipers and...

    Hello and thank you

    I have a small home in FL too. So my car sits in a garage all winter.

    Hello and thank you

    Hello everyone. I just got a '14 GT (MT) with many nice extras and 51,000 km (32,000 mi) on it. It's pretty much mint. Some may say I'm too old for this crazy car, but I really like it. I posted a pic in one of the recent threads. There aren't many S197s for sale and probably none as nice as...

    Why does the battery in my '14 GT have a blanket around it?

    Nice looking car. Mine is also red with a black stripe. (Race red acc to Ford) I like your wheels.

    Why does the battery in my '14 GT have a blanket around it?

    I'm just curious, there's no problem with my car. Why does the battery have a "blanket" around it? It looks like an insulating wrapper. Is it to protect the battery from heat under the hood? Or is it to keep the battery warm in colder weather? I can't see if there's any electrical connector to...

    where does this wire connect?

    It looks OK to me. My car (a '14) looks exactly like the pic helpfully posted by BullittSS from his '14. There is a metal bracket under the stud so it does look to be a proper ground. The stud comes up through the fuse box tab. The way I see it, a small nut goes on the stud to hold the fuse box...

    What is needed to switch from 3.55 to 3.15 rear end?

    You probably don't need much else and you will find the difference very dramatic. Changing the ring and pinion is not as simple as it looks. You need pinion bearings and a crushable sleeve. The preload on the pinion bearings is very important. You may need to shim the ring gear to get a good...

    where does this wire connect?

    Thank you so much. I suspect that this car had a fender replaced and that's why the fuse box was not correctly installed afterwards. The wire reaches perfectly to the stud on the fuse box. Now I can secure everything properly. (The tech who worked on this in the past was not very careful.)...

    where does this wire connect?

    Thanks again. The wire in question definitely looks like a ground wire. It's not long enough to go to the motor mount. (I see you changed the suggestion.) It reaches perfectly to the fuse box stud - any chance it goes there? Somebody in the past has messed around with the fuse box. The hold...

    where does this wire connect?

    Thanks. I'll have a look at the motor mount stud you mentioned. Looks like some work was done before I got the car. The car looks pristine (51,000 km) except that the fuse box hold down screws were missing and this wire is just hanging out in the air. A screw holding the plastic shield behind...
