    Help - error code "Powertrain control modules may need to be replaced"??

    I know nothing about after-market chips, so I can't help you there... try checking with the manufacture of the chip. Please let us know what you find out.

    Tire pressure?

    Damn, thought you meant 300,000 on ONE Mustang, then I re-read, and it was plural. My car has over 250,000 miles on it alone :(

    Tire pressure?

    Daily driving I do 35 front / 32 back. I'll bet that your tire can hold 110psi when the car is parked...I've seen a 275 hold that much before!!

    Door Lock Relay?

    Check the wires up under the passenger side of the dash. sicK96gt was having similar issues and his was just a loose wire under there.

    Clutch getting install by shop today

    I'm glad you like this clutch. I had this one installed a while back as well, and I still love it to this day. It's feather light when just driving normal, but when you want to get on it, it grips like it's holding on for dear life. I guess that's why they call it DUAL friction ;)

    Help - error code "Powertrain control modules may need to be replaced"??

    It definitely sounds like a "PCM / Powertrain Control Module / Body Control Computer / CCRM / Constant Control Relay Module / Multi-function Relay Module / Multi-function Relay Box" to me with those symptoms. It is essentially a sealed module that contains a lot of individual relays for cooling...

    exhaust with stock H pipe: glasspacks?

    Just gotta remember, though, that's a 5.0L. Here is my car with a Bassani O/R X pipe and Magnapacks (aka new-age glasspacks) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NhYPgJJU7O4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p6BWZV_UjKs I got pulled over the other day for how loud it was, and I shifting at 2,000rpm.

    Fan Module Out, Or So Mechanic Says...

    OK, here's the verdict: Late Friday we both argued on the phone for a bit, then I went up there to pick the car up. We talked it over a bit and came to an agreement. I felt a little worried about the car as if maybe they had done something, but in the end I paid $400 cash, $256.72 for the...

    Fan Module Out, Or So Mechanic Says...

    I've only been in Toronto for 2 months, at most. The nearest Zellers is about 20 minutes away, so I'll definitely have to check that out. Thank you very much!

    Fan Module Out, Or So Mechanic Says...

    I'm honestly going to have to say nevermind. But thank you very much for the wonderful offer. I should have gotten back to you sooner today. They did the work without my consent, so I am going to put $400 in their face and say, "Here, take this or undo the work and give me my car back and take...

    Fan Module Out, Or So Mechanic Says...

    Yes, I am pretty sure I had a post about this previously, but it received no support, so I finally took it to a mechanic. Who is Zellers? I understand that $95/hr isn't bad, but one of his employees told me $45 for diagnostics, then he turned around and said $95 for diagnostics. Big...

    Fan Module Out, Or So Mechanic Says...

    True story...but I've replaced the thermostat about a year ago. Also, my car has problems staying charged when it's been sitting for only 1 week. The module would honestly report a OBDII CEL code, yes?

    Fan Module Out, Or So Mechanic Says...

    So my car has been overheating lately, and I haven't really driven it in 3 weeks (about the time it started overheating), so I finally decided to take it to a mechanic. I was told last night that the diagnosis would be $45. He's now saying $95. Their labor rate is $95/hour. He said that...

    Sounds Like a Vacuum Leak, High Pitched Whistle From Engine

    Yeah, maybe it's time to clean my K&N. I'll check to see if it alters with that.

    Sounds Like a Vacuum Leak, High Pitched Whistle From Engine

    It does it all the time, regardless of A/C position. My A/C compressor is out, though, but it was doing it before that went. It doesn't sound like it's coming from that, but I can check again. I can only really hear it at idle because my exhaust is so loud. 22x,000 miles on the engine. Stock...

    Sounds Like a Vacuum Leak, High Pitched Whistle From Engine

    I've been experiencing a high pitch whistle from my engine for the past two months or so, but never really thought anything of it. It is really starting to get annoying now. It sounds like it may be a vacuum leak or something, but I figured I'd ask around to see if anyone has ever experienced...

    Driving Mustang 1500 Miles...How Should I Prepare?

    Hey guys, just letting you know I made it okay, no problems AT ALL. I drove it in 36 hours from start to finish, but time on the road was between 21 and 22 hours. I'm working up here. My business partners are paying for my first year of living. Before moving here, I visited for about 2 weeks...

    Driving Mustang 1500 Miles...How Should I Prepare?

    Thanks guys. I will take as much of this advice in as possible. There are a few things I might not even consider, such as changing the license plate bulbs (they are just 3 or 4 months old), but most of them I will. Thanks again for everything! Tomorrow (Tuesday) is the big day to perform...
