    03 Cobra Squeeky Seat and Other Probems

    You're describing many common problems that many '03 Cobra owners have experienced. My seat squeaks as well, but my dealer says they will fix it the next time it's in for service. My belt squeaks when the car is cold as well, and it's annoying. I've slowly worked all the bugs out of mine...

    squeaky snake

    I have the exact same problem. Mine is an '03 with only 5,000 miles... not sure what is causing it other than just the belt is cold and slipping a bit until it gets warmed up. Mine was squeaking something awful at one point, no matter how long the car had been running, but the dealer fixed it...

    I think a KB would void your warranty on your engine, no doubt... regardless of pulley size. Do a search on svtperformance.com and you'll see tons of horror stories of voided warranties for lesser crap than a KB.

    I totally agree with that statement. Also, most 98-00 F-bodies with low miles are worth about as much as a 93 Cobra with moderately high miles. The Cobra's (even the older ones) do not devalue near as bad as the F-bodies have... yet, the Cobra is more expensive to insure due to the limited...

    Get the '03 Cobra, it will be worth far more money in the long run than the F-body. The F-bodies are depreciating quickly, their value hit the crapper when GM stopped making them (I know because I used to own a 2000 Z28). You'll never look back after you have the '03 Cobra... and you'll be...

    boost Q for 03 cobra

    You'll need a good custom tune / chip to ensure you are getting the correct AF mixture with the added boost or you could burn your engine up quickly.

    How much is insurance on your 03 Cobra?

    Try State Farm, they were 1/3 the price of my previous insurance company.

    Will this void my warranty?

    I think your warranty would only be void on those parts or anything those parts affect, but not the whole car.

    Belt squeak drives me crazy

    Damn, we are in the same boat! Our window did that as well, and we had the dealer fix it, and it stopped for good. I'd tell the dealer to fix the belt squeak. I'm going to take ours back and have them keep it overnight, and start it in the morning so they can hear the belt sqeaking in the...

    Belt squeak drives me crazy

    You're not alone. Our car squeaked like crazy and we took it back to the dealer, and they installed a new belt. After that, the squeak is gone when the car is warmed up, but we still deal with a squeak for the first 5 minutes. It drives us nuts... I'll be interested if anyone has an idea of...

    Clutch replaced, question on pedal height and travel

    Assuming I keep the one I've got right now, how do I get a couple of extra clicks on the quadrant adjuster? I crawled under the dash and found it, but there is a gear engaged on the adjuster... how do I temporarily disengage this gear to pull the adjuster up for more tension in the cable? I...

    Clutch replaced, question on pedal height and travel

    I replaced my clutch in my 95 Cobra this past weekend, once we had it all back together, I noticed the clutch pedal flopping loose on the floorboard. I pulled the pedal up until it clicked and this made the clutch operable, but now it seems like the clutch pedal is further down from where it...

    New '03 Cobra owner with questions...

    Did you get the stall fixed? If so, what was the fix that the dealer implemented? This problem bothers me the most, it tries to die all the time when it's cold. The squeaky belt drives me insane too. Taking it to dealer tomorrow, we will see what happens.

    New '03 Cobra owner with questions...

    I've owned a '95 Cobra for 2 years and have had absolutely no problems out of it whatsoever. We've also owned a '99 Ford F-150 pickup for 2 years with not even one problem ever. So, this is new for us regarding owning a Ford. The more I've driven the '03, I realize that these problems...

    Hello all, me and my wife just purchased a used sonic blue '03 Cobra this past Monday. It's got 3200 miles on it, and we absolutely love it. However, we are experiencing what appear to be some common problems with this car, based on some searching I've done. We are going to take it to...
