    Rattle, bang noises

    The end of last year My 2012 GT began making the noises as I went over bumps or down a rough road. Snow season began and I had to wait until today to have it looked at by a mechanic. He could not find anything loose or broken under the car. It actually, sounds as if the spare tire is bouncing...

    Non Mustang tire rim question

    In addition to my Mustang I have a 2013 Tahoe. I'm on my second set of rims (Polished aluminum?). Unfortunately, living in snow country and the mixture they spray on the highways is hell on the rims. They leak around the tire bead and I'm having to put in ten to 15 pounds of air at least weekly...

    Mustangs in Winter

    Here in northern Idaho, we have been experiencing's one of the coldest spells in years. We have frequently been down to minus 15,20's at night and around zero during the day. My driveway is like a ice rink as are some of the roads but not as bad as my driveway. We haven't gone anywhere for ten...

    Battery

    Each year as we enter snow and ice period, I store my Mustang in the garage. About a month ago I parked in the garage and attached the trickle charger to the battery as I've done many times. About 3 to 4 weeks later I needed to get into the mustang and the key fob didn't work. I looked at the...

    Fuel Safe Pro

    I saw an advertisement for Fuel Safe Pro. Claimed to add mileage to your gasoline by monitoring and adjusting your on board computer. I Googled it and found it got really good reviews and simple to use. Looks like it may not be available for long as oil companies are filing law suits. It...

    Utube and Mustang advise

    Last night I'm watching various posting on Utube and come across one on 2012 GT's 5.0 (I have a 2012 GT 5.0) So I listen to the guy about how important it is to check your oil level as the PV valve will cause your car to lose oil and you could damage your engine. I'm getting ready to go on a...

    Car Trophy Non- Sanctioned

    As most of you know we did not win a trophy at the Spokane car show. But apparently our Mustang brought in a trophy anyway. When we came out of the restaurant the other night, I found this note on my Mustang car seat. I'm thinking the author of this note didn't actually see me, I'm 85 years...

    Horse Whinny horn

    My son and I recently entered my 2012 Mustang GT convertible in a car show. Saw lots of great Mustangs but mine was a dime a dozen compared to some cars entered. One guy a few cars over from me had a horn that allowed his car to whinny like a horse. I of course had to have one. It took a bit...

    Comments as promise on cleaning/waxing products recommendations

    One of the earliest threads I read was a gentleman who wrote a number of pages, step by step how to clean and wax your car. His recommendation as I recall was to use Ceramic rather than wax and all the preparations for getting the car ready for the ceramic application. He obviously was a...

    Spokane Car Show & Competitions - done

    We pulled into the display area, and it was immediately clear we weren't even in the race. We were placed in the 2000 plus stock category. We all had shinny finishes, clean engines and interiors. The only small difference in our car was the matching "Pony" jackets on display. My car has Pony's...

    Getting ready for the Spokane car show

    Yesterday, my son and I competed the exterior of our Mustang for this Saturday, a few things to touch up today. Of course, on the news last night, rain Saturday. It will be a little difficult to display our convertible as we had planned. We can only hope the rain holds off, or their predictions...

    Cold Air Intake

    I've owned this car about five months and still learning, it's a 2012 GT 5.0 convertible. So, my son and I are entering the car next weekend in a Mustang car show and getting it ready. As we're cleaning the car engine compartment, I see that it has a Cold Air Intake. I had a 2008 Mustang GT, it...

    Getting ready for car show- continued

    Those of you who have read and made product recommendation as I get our car ready for the car show, this is addressed to you. I have bought a number of the recommend cleaners, polishes, etc. So, one thing I am wondering about in the process is over spray. For example, does the Tire shine stuff...

    Battery/Charging issues with the 2012 Mustang 5.0 GT

    When I bought our newer Mustang I received a Car Fax report along with the car. Probable 15 or so pages with about six or seven different entrees for check battery or check charging system. The last entree was replaced the battery. When I looked under the hood it looked as if a battery had...

    Track App

    Sometime back I ask if my 2012 Mustang GT Convertible could have come with Track app. I asked about that as it is covered in my car manual. Of course, the end of the section it stated if your car is equipped with Track App. At the time I questioned whether a convertible would have that installed...

    Does anyone know with certainty where the microphone is located on a 2012 GT Convertible. I had a GPS/Navigation/radio/phone installed today. I ask that the microphone be connected to the existing microphone wiring. When the installation was complete, they told me it was in the air vent. That...

    I know, sounds like a dumb question. I am serious though. The floor mats in my car are black with the Mustang emblem on them and they're weatherproof. However, living at the end of a mile long roadway and dirt driveway we constantly leave grey footprints on the carpet. So. forever day use I...

    Getting ready for car show

    I've never entered a car show before and curious what they're (judges?) are looking for and how detailed. I recently cleaned up my interior and exterior but found a few areas difficult to get the dust out of. As I was cleaning it occurred to me maybe you could use the same spray that you use to...
