    Digital Compass Showing "--"

    It's been about 3 weeks since my compass stopped working correctly, and instead just shows "--" where "N" or "S" etc should be. I tried holding 7 & 9 together on the radio buttons, to re-calibrate, but that didn't work. Also unhooked the battery to see if it would reset something, but that...

    PCV valve rattle?

    I've noticed a rattle coming from the PCV valve area on the drivers side valve cover. I have the Ford Racing valve covers, they're only a few months old. I can hear it at idle, it's intermittent, and it's really noticeable with a stethoscope. It goes away if I rev the car up a bit and comes back...

    clutch pedal clicking

    They're on the loud end, but they're not obnoxious in my opinion. There is some drone around 2-2.5k rpm, other than that it sounds pretty smooth. If you don't get on it, they're pretty quiet. I'm happy with them, but I wouldn't keep them on if I decided to add a mid-pipe, I imagine they'd get...

    clutch pedal clicking

    Cool, glad to hear that I'm not the only one getting these 'clicks' in the clutch pedal. I took it into Ford 2 days ago, they drove it around and said that the pedal was operating normally. I can live with the clicking, especially if it's nothing to worry about. I can't hear them when the...

    clutch pedal clicking

    Just purchased a 2010 GT, it only has 5300 miles. I noticed today that when I press the clutch pedal down, I hear 1 or 2 'clicks'. It's doing it every time I press it down, and it seems like it's coming from the pedal. Anyone else have this clicking? It's still under warranty, but if it's...

    Suspension question (pic inside)

    Man, I haven't been able to find anybody that can align my car just right...I have it lowered (ford c springs, that's it) and I have MM CC plates. I don't know much about alignments, but the last couple of times I've brought it in they've told me that they couldn't align it anymore than it...

    Suspension question (pic inside)

    I figured it wasn't right for it to be lose. I did have front end work done lately and my car is not steering straight. I'll go home and tighten that bolt up like you suggested...Then I'm gonna give the shop that did my alignment last a call and have them align it again. Thanks for the quick...

    Suspension question (pic inside)

    Is the bolt circled in the attached picture supposed to be loose? I was under the car the other day and I can turn mine by hand...I'm not a suspension guru so I'm not sure what it does/if it should be tightened one way or the other :shrug:

    Need help!!! Check engine light after coolant flush!

    Yeah man, I don't know why that code would get pulled after a coolant flush...I just drove it for an hour to get home and the car ran just fine...I'm hoping it's just a fluke - if it doesn't go off on its own I'll try to reset computer. It's possible it could be the o2 sensor acting...

    Paint pricing

    What is a decent price range for a front bumper paint job? Also, I have a few rock chips I've been painting in with touch up paint, would they be able to blend those in at all? or would they just have to repaint the hood... I understand the price will vary greatly from place to place, I'm...

    Fixing it right is definitely what I want to do - 200 bucks it is, oh well, it was worth a shot! I definitely do not want it to get worst

    refrigerant leak, can I patch it up?

    One of the aluminum lines that runs AC refrigerant has a hole in it and leaks refrigerant...I found this out when I went to the garage today after my compressor decided to stop working the other day. They showed me the leak, it's next to the air intake (I have the K&N filter system) which has...

    Exhaust leak

    Yeah I messed around with it some, but the flanges are flat against one another. I know that on my last bbk pipe I messed with it for a long time before I realized that the metal had just given in and gotten too maleable. I'm going to try to mess with it some more this afternoon. It's a...

    Exhaust leak

    I installed an SLP lm II catback on the car yesterday afternoon. The instal itself was straightforward, but I do have a leak where the h-pipe hooks up to the rest of the catback. Here's the problem, I can't tighten up the exhaust anymore at that particular hookup...the exhaust flanges from the...
