Whats wrong with YOUR pony?

  • Sponsors (?)


Everything... Service engine light came on today (think it's an o2 sensor.

Exhaust leak
Fading paint
Throw out bearing (AGIAN!!)
1-2 Grind (again!!)
Reverse tough to get into
Tranny whine
Some weird hissing/whining noise from engine bay

Justa quick question... Why do we pay for the cars again?
 
Few small problems...

Velcro = crap for mounting shift light
Small rattle coming from center console bezel
front tires worn on the inside (were on the back when I had the stick, which was horribly bent and toe'd out)
minor paint chips/scratches/dings (I need to order some touch up paint...but I'm lazy + school sucks)

Oh and I have some sort of crazy whirring sound coming from my engine bay... :drool:
 
No issues ever except the IAC and normal wear & tare.
My car is now almost 90% brand new :)

The one real complaint i have with this car is the driver seat position. It sits way to high and i'm tall so its a problem. I'm thinking of having a custom seat bracket made to lower me down some. Not sure how much room is available to drop though.

Window decides it doesn't wana work at random times. Fixes itself after a few hours. My fargin CC plates are clunky (fixing that this weekend)

My seat cracked as well and I tried to get a shop to fix it and they made a mess of it. Took it to ford and they replaced the whole cover!

LOL! Mine does exactly the same thing with the driver's side window! Sometimes (usually after I wash it) it will stop working and then all the sudden fix itself later.

I thought I was the only one.

Other than that, dirves like crap in hot weather.
 
What's wrong with mine?

'00 GT 'Vert (Auto)
68k miles

1. Fog lamp enclosure on passenger side has water in it. Replaced two bulbs already before I found out about the water. (And those lamps are NOT cheap!)
2. Front end rides like crap! I feel every bump in the road. I suspect it's the struts, as they are OEM.
3. Rear shocks need replacing, they are also OEM.
4. It needs a radiator flush.
5. The front left vent needs replacing. The verticle slots are "bent".
6. Needs interior cleaning...badly, but the dash still looks good! ! (But it still turns heads with Top Down!)
 
Darn seatbelt puts a strain on your neck...this one tries to retract TOO hard. :shrug:

Some dash rattles coming from God knows where

0 traction in 1st gear and most of 2nd :(

Need rear tires (guess why :lol: )

Some sort of an exhaust leak

Exhaust tips rattle now (loosen every 3ish K)

Some whistling noise from hood scoop @ 65

Slight bucking at low RPMs

Darn 2nd gear gremlins :mad: . (missed 2nd gear shifts)

Not @ 300RWHP yet :nonono:

Racoon removed my foglight with his head :rlaugh:

Very few small nicks/scratches. 0 dings though :nice: (that I know of)

Throttle body blade sticks in the closed position while running sometimes...have to push fairly hard to break the vaccume. (due to me "rerouted" the PCV system)

Mach 460 deck SUCKS!!!!!!! ALOT of CD errors, and skipping around. Mainly when cold...dont even think about playing a CD for the first 5-10 minutes if its cold out....you can go through a 4 minute song in about 20 seconds lol.

New K member W/ coilovers is SOLID and transmits sudden bumps MUCH MUCH too well lol. Sticks feel like pot holes...well not that bad but bumps make the dash shake and its kinda loud. And seems a little rough over bumps.

Front end pops quite abit

Need to change the oil

Its VERY dirty right now



Outside of that, its a VERY good and reliable car and I enjoy driving it :D ZERO reliability isses with the motor or drivetrain and it just rolled over to 43K a few days ago . :nice:
 
-T-45 shifts like crap( grinds,clunks, etc.)
-rear end is crooked by about 1/4 inch
-a/c doesnt work
-many rattles on the inside
-a few dings and scratches
-front seats are starting to crack(leather),and the power seat barely works
-previous owner let a dog chew up the rear seat belts
-rust in the middle of the brake rotors
-throw out bearing squeeks
-previous owner thought it would be cool to undercoat the car and now it burns on my exhaust
-tick sounds from the engine bay
-now I am used to the car so its starting to feel slow
-the paint could be better
Other than that its a great car.
