    False empty 2011 TSB 10-21-3 recurrence trouble?

    Snippet from the TSB... They replaced my FL-1 on the first try, this worked for 1 tank of gas then the problem returned. On the second try they replaced FL-1 and FL-2 (plus a couple of hoses I think), this did not work either. At that point I reminded them that they were at the plate with...

    False empty 2011 TSB 10-21-3 recurrence trouble?

    Hi Kiteboarder.... You are having the exact symptoms I did. The dealer tried replacing the sending units per the TSB (and also other parts in the tank) twice to no avail. They then ended up replacing the gauge cluster and that did the trick. 4K miles since repair and no more problems.

    Push Start ( Small gripe )

    Don't know about the masculinity factor, but I have to keep the stang key separate because it's so low on the column that if I have any key ring it digs into the top of my knee. Granted I'm tall but I don't have this issue on any other car. It just seems to be positioned weird. Having a loose...

    Boss cross-car X-brace

    If your talking about the (deleted) rear seat brace then +1 here. I'd like to lose the rear seat as well, and the Boss setup looks nice. I've been hoping it pops up for sale on FRPP, but I'm not holding my breath. I haven't seen the Boss in person yet, once I can, I hope to snap some pics so I...

    New Winter Rubber

    They have been great for my purposes so far (about 2,000 miles), but I have not driven on the road in the snow (although we have a couple feet on the ground). I have moved the car around the driveway during snow storms and have been able to drive (slowly) through a few inches of snow without a...

    Explanation of "Engineering Test Mode" codes?

    Don't have documentation, but a lot of the raw data codes (fuel, temp, etc) appear to be based upon a 0-255 scale which is common in electronics (one byte in hex / binary) thus 0 = 0 and 255 = max. Generally you will never see the extremes, so a full fuel tank indication is 248ish on my car...

    False empty 2011 TSB 10-21-3 recurrence trouble?

    @phoneman: Build date of June 8, 2010 Problem started at about 800 miles. When I got the car, I ran the tank down to less than 1/8th of a tank in order to get whatever fuel the dealer had filled it with out of there and replace with premium (to maximize horsepower of course :nice: ) No...

    Build date of June 8, 2010. The first replacement fuel pump module was ordered in December, wasn't sitting on the dealer shelf, took a week top get. See attached....

    False empty 2011 TSB 10-21-3 recurrence trouble?

    Big headache for me I had the problem. Took them 3 tries to fix it (last chance before lemon law, not that I wanted to go that route). 1st try, followed the TSB to the letter, problem gone for 2 tanks of fuel then came back. 2nd try, they replaced the other fuel pump, and some other...

    New Winter Rubber

    After living with the FR wheels for awhile, I've grown to like the black better than the stock color.

    New Winter Rubber

    I went with the (Brembo package) stock size of 255/40-19 with 19x9 wheels. The choices are limited with the Brembos. The stock wheels only clear the binders by this much -->| |<--. I've run Blizzaks in the past on a lower performance car, and their snow traction was truly amazing. I haven't...

    2012 Rear Dif Option

    I see in the order guide for the '12 Gt that there is an option for a helical gear LSD. ==> http://www.stangnet.com/images/stories/docs/2012MustangOrderGuide.pdf Can I assume that my '11 has a clutch type LSD? Are the helical type that much better? Is it a performance or longevity issue...

    Hi beam/ Fog lights same time

    My plan for the spring is to install a front fascia with fogs (like the Roush)and replace the factory fogs with some driving lights, something like this --> My Hella Lights :: Rallye 4000i Compact Xenon (yes I know, "off road only" :nono:) I haven't researched what will fit, but the OEM fogs...

    There's a floor back there? :) FWIW, I have to pay for all 4 mats in my BMW.
