    My car stinks

    Yep. I used to think that was one of the funniest episodes in the whole series. Now that it's actually happened... Someone on another board pointed out this nifty little product, so I'm going to give it a try. http://autogeek.net/clairgefoair.html

    Car pics... pre/post lowering springs

    Very nice. Just low enough to make everything look like it fits perfectly together. I might have to do that to mine.

    My car stinks

    In addition to not fixing my car, the dealership has infected the interior with a nasty stench that I can't seem to get rid of. I tried Fabreez for autos, but now I can just smell the Fabreez on top of the sweat/body odor/grease that was already lingering. Airing it out hasn't done the trick...

    TSBs, should I?

    I'd make an attempt to have all of those issues looked at, though it's not suprising to see a little moisture around the top of a brake master cylinder. It all depends on your dealership if they'll be responsive. I'm at the point where I'd almost rather pay out of pocket to have the problems...

    Loud Sloppy Clatter in 05 GT

    I got my car back. But the problem wasn't corrected. When I first dropped the car off a week ago, I had dropped it off the night before so it would be cool the following morning. I offered to take a test drive on the morning of the appointment since the car does it every morning on my way to...

    Loud Sloppy Clatter in 05 GT

    Goes to show how crap this dealership is. I had the car in for the same problem last winter. They couldn't locate any problems. This winter, after it started getting cold, the problem popped back up louder than ever. The problem actually started with about 5k on the engine. Now that I've got...

    Loud Sloppy Clatter in 05 GT

    I reviewed every TSB, but none of the descriptions fit this problem. It may still be a valve sound, but it doesn't match up with the TSB. It's not at idle, and it's not when the engine is warmed up. It's also not a quick start up sound. It's a pronounced and irregular clattering sound that only...

    Tire Shine overspray/splatter

    I use Hot Shine too. Works perfect. If you use one of the other application gels, don't use too much. Any excess that is glopped on the tire and doesn't dry will get flung off. If you use an applicator, be sure that it gets into the patterns and edges so it's not standing on top of the tire...

    Loud Sloppy Clatter in 05 GT

    I have an ongoing problem that I can't nail down. I really need help on this one. The dealer has had the car twice and they can't even replicate the noise. It doesn't help that my dealer is one the most incompetent I've ever encountered. The car makes a loud, sloppy clatter sound right around...

    Had my custom PSP intake and tune installed last night...WOW

    What type of tune did you get? Are you running a higher octane gas with it?

    Front Bumber License Plate

    When I ordered the car, I told the dealer to keep all stickers and any other advertising off of my car. When I went to pick it up, there were no stickers, but they had screwed in a front plate with a dealere paper tag. I pointed it out to the salesman and he said he'd take it off...

    I like that tail. I want one. :nice:

    Wheel Hop and Squeaky Brakes

    No squeaky brakes on mine. Only had wheel hop ones on a slightly slick road.

    Body Kit, Hood Scoop, Hood Painted!

    Opinions: Mustang's worst feature

    The bottom of the seats aren't cushy enough. The seatbelt is too hard to reach. Steering wheel is too big. Leg-room in back stinks No lights on the mirrors on the back of the visors Doors don't lock when you close them Seats don't return to same upright position when you bend them to let...

    Mustang GT vs Mazda RX-8, Can't decide which to buy

    I like the RX8, but after driving it and the 05 GT, I knew for certain that I wanted the Mustang. The Mazda handles really well, but the lack of power and the bumpy ride from a tiny sportscar put me off. When I got to smoke a friend in his, I knew I made the right choice. Him=zero...

    Saleen '20 wheels

    Very true. :nice: Again, though, nice car!

    04 gt intake exhaust and 4.10s vs stock 05 gt 5spd

    Correct me if I'm wrong... Unless you tear apart an auto in order to get the tach lit up before taking off, you're going to be slower off the line. It's EASY to hook up an 05 manual GT if you don't wind it up too high before dropping the clutch. At most, if done correctly, you'll get a chirp...

    Saleen '20 wheels

    First of all, nice car. I'm not a big fan of huge tires and tiny strips of rubber, though. It just looks a little silly to me. I like the beefy look of a tire strapped to a slightly smaller wheel. I'll probably go with 18" when I switch 'em out.

    Comments on my Tinted Fog lights & black pony

    I like the blacked out pony. The overly bright plastic "chrome" looks cheesy anyway. I think I'm going to follow your lead on that one. :nice:
