    Official Tremec 3650 Issues Thread

    Well gang, after the Ford house having my car for nearly two weeks I got to pick her up last night after work. The 1-2 shift grind is gone! It's like night and day, should have been like this 24,000 miles ago. Problem now is whoever took the shifter bezel off (the plastic piece with the...

    Official Tremec 3650 Issues Thread

    Good point, thats what I thought as well. You would think that they have driven/seen other cars with this same problem. So tempting to swap the tranny or just sell it. I know when the warranty is up the tranny is gonna take a dump on me from all the grinding. Plus the thought of them having...

    Official Tremec 3650 Issues Thread

    Update to my previous post on them repairing my 3650. No luck yet, the vehicle sat overnight they admitted there was "feedback" present on the shifter but it disappeared when the vehicle was warm. I explained that the vehicle should not need a warm up period, and the fact that the owners...

    What kind of wheels are these?

    LOL...I wasn't sure if they were bullits or what but now I know =) I'd love to get some chrome cobra wheels but I don't want the cobra center cap as my car is a GT. Any suggestions for wheels? I wanna stay the stock size so I don't have to invest in new tires.

    Wow that sucks :mad: , thanks for the answer though. Any idea how much I can get for selling the entire system? Will the speakers and tweeters work with an aftermarket headunit or do they have some kind of odd Ohm reqiurement? Thanks again JP

    Mach 1000 System + MP3s

    Hey All---- Got a question, I have an 03 Mustang GT with the Mach 1000 audio system. I was under the impression it could play MP3s but apparently I was wrong. Can someone confirm if the Mach 1000 headunit will play MP3s? If not, does Ford make a Mach 1000 MP3 player? I know there is a MP3...

    Gurgling Sound

    Hey All--- Got a strange question, I noticed this the other night and also this morning. After shutting the car off, you can hear gurgling sounds coming from the passenger side dash area. It is fairly loud but nothing is leaking that I am aware of. I would imagine something with the heater...

    Official Tremec 3650 Issues Thread

    WOW...squeaky wheel does get the grease so it seems. I received a call from Ford Customer Care today (I've been in contact with them and the dealership for a week now via e-mails, phone calls, and faxes) and my car is going in for a so called "fix". There is so much mis-information going...

    Official Tremec 3650 Issues Thread

    Well after my discussions with Ford Customer Care this morning on the phone i was advised to speak to my service manager at my local dealership. The lady on the phone and the service manager have never heard of a one-two grind or any 3650 problems so they say. So my car sits at the ford house...

    Official Tremec 3650 Issues Thread

    I totally agree with Oldskooler, this is nothing more than biding time and instilling false hope for me. This issue has existed now for nearly 3 years on 2001's to 2004. Certianly FORD was aware of the issue by 2002. Being that there isnt much to do about it and roughly 12,000 miles until my...

    Official Tremec 3650 Issues Thread

    Official Tremec 3650 Issues Thread

    My question is assuming there is a TSB on this and takes lets say 3 or 4 business days to repair the 3650 who is going to eat the cost of a rental car? This may not be a problem for some people here, but for me it is going to be a huge issue. This is my only set of wheels, and the mindset when...

    Weird Brake Issue

    Hey All--- I have a strange question, last night when coming to a stop on an icy road the brakes acted very odd. I heard a groan/chatter coming from the front end and the pedal was shaking up and down while I was stopping. I've never had to slam on the brakes on the ice before but I'm not...

    Installing a sub

    To answer the power cable question, I would keep it seperate from the speaker leads. In a car I helped with a friend, we had the power lead running on the passenger side area and the RCA leads from the head unit running on the drivers side to minimize the possiblity of noise entering the amps...
