    Cold start problems with a tune...

    I have problems when the weather is cold and after my car has been sitting for awhile when I try to start it. The car will start, shimmy a bit and then die. I can try to start it immediately after that and usually it starts fine, though sometimes it can take 2 or 3 more times if it's really...

    Exhaust advise wanted.

    Getting a little extra money here soon, and thought I'd use a little of it to add some sound to my V6. I'm not doing anything major, just simple, and relatively cheap. Not doing duals. No complete systems with headers and all that. So, what would you guys suggest? I'd like a louder...

    Trouble starting in cold weather.

    I've noticed that in the mornings when it is cold the Mustang has a hard time starting up. It will shudder a bit and either warm itself up and run ok, or it will shut down and I'll have to start it up again. Then today, we had a nice frost, and it took several times to get it started, and it...

    Vibration at 1500 RPM....normal?

    I get some vibration when my car is at 1500 RPM, usually at slower speeds. Is this normal? I feel it at my feet, and can tell it's the engine.

    Ok, had the car for 3 weeks now. Got some noises I have questions about, as well as a few other issues. 1st issue: The stupid gas tank issue, guess a year wasn't long enough for Ford to figure this one out :bang: 2nd issue: CD player just crapped out on me for a few days. It said...

    fuses...

    Could someone please tell me how to get the fuse cover off? I can't get the dang then out of there. Couldn't Ford have found a more accessible location to put the fuses?

    2006 models, problems still aren't fixed?

    Well, I got my car less than 3 weeks ago. I've been having trouble at the gas tank, though I've only filled it up twice so far. The dealer had some trouble as well. Now today, my shaker 500 gives me a CD error message, and won't do anything. I can't switch CDs, or eject them. I'm stuck on...

    Tunes: Alternative Auto, Bamachips, Brenspeed?

    Ok, I'm pretty sure I'll be getting an XCal2, and I just need to figure out where I'm gonna get it from now. Scrming loves Lidio at Alternative Auto. I've heard a few people say good things about Bamachips. And, I saw one person mention Brenspeed. Who should I go with? Brenspeed is $20...

    16 Gal. Tank?

    Ok, had my car for about 2 weeks now. On my second tank of gas. I'm getting around 20 MPG on this second tank according to the dash. The dash also says I've used 12.7 gallons, and that I have about 47 miles to E. Doing the math, that's about a total of 15 gallons, not 16? Is it considered E...

    Vehicle status, opinions appreciated.

    Well, my car has been built and shipped out. My dealer told me Thursday when I called that it was scheduled to come off the train on Friday and it would either be late Friday or Saturday that I'd get it. I called yesterday and he said it didn't come off the train Friday, so it'll be Monday...

    Fees, taxes, and extended warranty.

    Well, I should be picking up my car from the dealer this coming week, and I was wondering how much everyone generally paid in fees and taxes? My x-plan price is about $22,100. I was kind of figuring with fees/title and tax it'd be around 23,500 give or take. Also, how much have you guys...

    Mustangs not selling?

    Are mustangs not selling very well right now? I know at the local dealership they've had about 12-15 sitting on their lot for about 3-4 weeks now. Most are 05's, converts and such, but there are a few 06's. The exact same ones, all there, everyday. I haven't checked the stickers on them, so...

    Need help re: Racing Stripes

    My car should be ready in a few weeks at the dealer, and I'm planning on getting some racing stripes put on, and I've been doing research, but am not sure how I should go about it. I've seen people say you should definately have them painted on. I've seen people say Vinyl is fine, and cheaper...
