    2008 GT Rear Gear Oil Type

    I would stick with the 75W-140. Takes three quarts, and one bottle of friction modifier. If you use Royal Purple gear oil, you don't need the friction modifier; it's already in there.

    Spare tire questions

    Dunno about the V-6's, but my 07 GT has a 17 inch rim. Tire is a T185/60R17.

    What can I get for $100?

    Kick in 20 bucks of your own to go wth her 100 and get some sequentials. Or if you go with the splice-in kit , it'll be under 100. http://www.webelectricproducts.com/

    Engine Difficulties (ABS and Throttle)

    Unplug the sensor wire from your brake reservoir. Clean the connection and plug it back in. If that doesn't do it, have the dealer replace the sensor.

    driving a un-tuned auto with a gear

    Shift points in the tune are controlled by mph, not rpm. :)

    Loud Rattle Noise From Under Hood When Cold.

    Detonation sounds like gravel rattling in a can. This is not a good thing. Are you running a tune, or is it stock? You might need to be putting premium in it.

    Loud Rattle Noise From Under Hood When Cold.

    I'll be interested to hear what they say, once they hear the noise in person. Does it sound like gravel rattling in a can? Not to offend, but your driving habits could stand a little tweaking, perhaps. I would let the motor get up to normal temp before accelerating hard, but that's just me.

    Starting rough then better???

    It's the fastest color, too! :nice:

    Starting rough then better???

    Most CAIs require a tune. If you don't know what CAI you've got, post up a pic, and we can likely tell you. If it's only done this once, just watch it, and post back if it does it again. With just 14K miles, your TB and MAF are probably OK.

    Plugs on a 2009 GT

    I think the AA vs. AB codes are to differentiate the 08s, since the change was made during that model year. You should be fine with an 09.

    driving a un-tuned auto with a gear

    The tune tells your auto at what mph to shift into each gear. If you can't use the tuner to tell your car what gears you have, I wouldn't drive it until you get a new tune.

    over heating problems

    Gotta be the tune. If it was the car, I don't think the fans would kick on with the stock tune.

    Starting rough then better???

    Without any codes, or an extremely detailed description, it's hard to troubleshoot this remotely. I'd try the obvious stuff first - clean your MAF and throttle body. Those can affect general driveability. You said it happened after a turn, were you really low on gas at the time? Could have...

    SLPs Too Loud for Wife

    I'd just give her half my stuff, and be done with it. :p I love my LoudMouths. But if you're determined to keep her, check out the Dynomax bullet mufflers from Summit...not too expensive, and I believe a few guys are running them with good results.

    anyone having problem with power window

    Roll the windows down, and hold the buttons for a few seconds after they're down. Roll them up, and hold the buttons for a few seconds after they're up. This will recalibrate them.

    heads up on an awesome deal

    That's a smoking deal. I've had a ShaftMaster driveshaft since March, and I really like it. Paid a lot more than that for it, though!

    First time Mustang owner

    You'll want some bling, too. Check out the CDC sequential taillights. Easy first mod, and they're sharp! But performance wise, best bang for the buck is definitely a CAI and a tune. oh, and welcome! As far as break in procedure, some people say drive it like you stole it right away...

    2010 GT Tail Lights on an 2009 GT? Can it be done?

    Wouldn't work anyway...besides all of the above mentioned stuff, the 2010 tail lights are LED.

    Found this on another board: GT500 crash...

    I think I've finally found a GT-500 that will go for sticker! Seriously, that's a shame....the owner must be sick about it.
