Since the S550 has a vast lineup of trims, there are a few different OEM options when replacing a part and that is cool.
I typically like getting OEM parts, mostly because they were designed by the same engineers that built the car, so I suspect they would know better.
Recently I got a good...
Was wondering if there are air vents for the solid plastic on the fog light housing?
Wanted to put air vents so it can look better and I think it will also add more air flow to the chassis (I may be wrong on increased air flow)
Please share any insight on this and if you know where can I...
Replace my fuel pump and filled it up twice, but the gauge seems to not detect full tank.
I feel that I missed something, what could I do to try to fix that?
I am planning to consider modding my V6 with candidate components that Ford has put on all its models.
Like for example, I installed the strut tower brace and to my surprise, I noticed improvement on the handling. Next I am planning to install the lower K brace.
To install other components, I...
I have installed the OEM digital cluster and was wondering is it possible to add a quad tip OEM exhaust and also have active exhaust enabled in the cluster to manage it?
if yes, any ideas or references please on how can I install it?
I have a 2015 black v6.
My largest tires I ever experienced is my stock 17 inch wheels.
I am think in changing my wheels for the Ford Performance Mach-1 Handling Pack Wheel And Tire Package 19"X10.5"/ 11" Tarnished Dark Aluminum.
not very familiar about the logistics about wheels and tires...
My 2015 V6 has 120K miles and for the past few months consistently the car is taking about 2 seconds cranking to start, rather than less than a second.
My experience with this is:
- On mornings ,The car starts immediately, while cranking under a second. That feels normal.
- After a 20-30...
I am planning to keep my car for as long as I can.
I was wondering for how long do you think I would be able to easily find OEM Ford parts?
Do you think I would be able to find parts in like 10 years or more from now?
Like right now, until what previous model of a Mustang would I be able to...
I am interested in enhancing my handling experience.
I think the handling on the Mustang is perfect, but I never had the opportunity to experience any mods that claim to improve handling.
What mods would you suggest that can improve handling for street driving and what would that mod improve...
I would like to measure the fuel pressure on a 2015 s550.
I am imagining I can install a permanent gauge or connector at the fuel rails but I am having trouble finding something easy to install.
What would be great is a device that can send live data to my phone so I can monitor
Please share...
What are maintenance tasks you do that are typically not on the maintenance schedule?
I am asking this because all of a sudden the other day I had bad misfires while on the highway.
I ended up replacing all coils, spark plugs and injectors and everything looks good.
While researching what...
Was cruising on the highway yesterday and all of a sudden i was running rough and noticed my A/F was at max.
Checked the DTC and had P0203,P0302 and P300 and I am sure I saw misfires on cylinder 5 and 6.
Drove around my house then to see if it was random, but was still getting misfires.
Then...
I am interested in upgrading my 17 inch OEM wheels with Hankook noble2 tires on my 2015 V6.
I only street drive.
I am thinking to get 18 or 19 inch wheels and was wondering if all it needs is to put new wheels and just bolt them on?
I think I need to go to forscan and update the tire size...
I have been having this sound for a long time and was wondering what it is.
notice the sound in the video , when the sound happens the boost gauge changes.
This happens when i turn on the heat or ac and the sound repeats every like 10 seconds
So I noticed today that we can add a tow hook to the car.
Is it really necessary for towing?
As of now, I am leaning in getting one, because I think they look cool, but I am hoping to find out more about them.
I only street drive my car.
I wanted to do some chassis lubrication on my 2015 V6 with a 117K miles.
What should I target to look at?
Saw on youtube lubricating bushings with a syringe with grease, and was wondering if it is a good idea?
I just want to covert to quad tips for visual purposes only, not for performance.
What do you think would be the cleanest way while keeping cost a minimum?
One way I was thinking is because the tips on the current muffler is too short I wont be able to just clamp on dual tips so I am thinking...
I am replacing all 4 suspensions. Went on the ford parts website plugged in my vin and ordered the parts.
Ordered only the struts as I am planning to re use the spring, however I couldn’t install because the strut is shorter about 2 inches than the original strut and the spring is too big. So...
After 110K miles noticed my struts are leaking and it is time to replace them.
What brand of struts would you recommend and why?
I am casual driver not interested in any fancy mods like lowering etc.
My main priority is reliability and comfort.
I am thinking in just buying new OEM struts
