Does any know if anyone makes a stainless steel replacement air filter for the paper filter that fits in the stock GT housing for a 200 - 2004 GT like the UPR type?

Does that filter just drop into the factory housing likea paper element or does it require modification?

Those are dust boots and when you have your car greased, they should feel packed with grease - firm, but not enough to blow the dust boot off. The squeek is from the rack and pinion bushings, believe me and the TSB verifies it.

Before you go totally crazy, pop up the plastic filler between the hood and the windshield on the passenger side. Slide a putty knive under the rubber seal and the pop clips release easily. Coat the pop clips with a little white lithium grease and re-snap them in place. I had this same noise...

It's the Rack and Pinion Bushings!!! My '04 GT squeeked from day one. Pulled out the 2 bolts (1 at a time) and coated the bushings with thin film of lubriplate white grease. There is a TSB on this problem since I fixed mine. Haven't had a squeek in 3 years! It's a simple fix - just don't...

Battery eye back to "green" and gauges no longer sweep and function perfectly. Looks like all the battery needed was some distilled water to bring level to the split rings. Wonder how many batteries are replaced without checking the fluid level in these "sealed" batteries?:D :D

Well, got back from a long ride and the Battery "eye" was green. I opened the "sealed battery" and added 2 cups of distilled water to bring level to the "split rings". After adding the water, the eye went to "red." I ran the engine for 10 minutes - still red. I hooked a trickle charger up...

Car bought new 2 years ago and battery terminals have never been taken off. Car has never been back to Dealer - I do oil changes myself. Car just turned 8,000 miles. Still under warranty. Seems too soon for batery to be going bad, but anything's possible. If I shut car off and re-start...

Cold here - Does this mean battery is starting to go or something else??? Cranks fast and starts immediately.

It's NOT your alternator! Something is draining your battery as it sits. It could be an alarm system (if equipped). Try the attached procedure to locate the cause of the drain: http://www.wikihow.com/Find-a-Parasitic-Battery-Drain

WRONG!!! I also have an '04GT and the clearcoat wasbreaking up on one wheel. Dealer ordered a new wheel under 3year/36,000 mile warranty. No questions /no problem. Wheel was replaced 2 months ago.

Curious - Where is Tejas? lol

How did you get the edges so straight? Masking tape? Must have been very time consuming, but looks great!

Battery Saver Relay shuts off all accessories after 15 - 30 seconds of locking car. Try turning radio on and leaving it on high volume. Exit and lock car and see if it gos off or stays on. If it stays on, your Battery Saver Relay is shot.

Has this happened to anyone with original Factory installed plugs? What should the torque be on the plugs? Should everyone check their plugs periodically? If so, how often? Thanks for the tip re: the longer thread plugs!

Has anyone successfully adapted the Factory Panic alarm to become an armed Alarm System on an '04 Mustang? Since the panic FOB button honks the horn and flashes the lights, it should be an easy task to make the panic mode operate as a no cost alarm deterrent system. Anyone?

I wouldn't take the car back to the Dealer. I took mine in for a front end squeak and they said they needed the car for 3 - 5 days to replace the rack and pinion. I fixed the squeak myself in 15 minutes. I am happy to say my car has not been in the Dealer's Serviceman's hands since I bought...

Yup, same hole. I siphoned a pint out of mine when I added Lube Guard. Make sure you take it down to the full HOT level to prevent foaming/damage. Good luck!
