    I Have A Tech. Question About My Mustang. (need A Mechanic's Input)

    If it was the tranny, why would the engine not respond to the gas pedal being pushed down? Does the computer know something is up and refuses to give it more gas?

    Electrical Backlight Problem

    Well there are two filaments in the outer lights, so depending on which one breaks will determine it's behavior of how it lights. Ones brighter for the brake and blinking functions. One's dimmer for your running lights, like when you have your head lights on. When you have your head lights on...

    Electrical Backlight Problem

    Whichever bulb is behaving differently than the rest, probably has a burnt filament. Out of the 6 bulbs that light red, the outer 4 (2 on each side) have 2 filaments each. The inner 2 (one on each side) only have 1 filament each. Someone correct me if I'm wrong here as I'm going off personal...

    Drivetrain '08 V6 Speed Mods

    lol, well if you want it to be fast like a V8, then you have to do forced induction or throw in some NOS. But you say you have a low budget... So you're stuck with the basic CAI, re-tune and dual exhaust.This might yield you around 20 horse increase? Could run you anywhere from $300-$1000...

    05 V6 Unleaded To Super Unleaded?

    I would recommend a tune to go along with it. You will get a slight increase in mileage, but it won't make up for the extra cost. I only saw about a .5 - 1 mpg change at most.\ If you did somehow get 1 mpg better for a tank of gas, maybe 12 gallons worth, that's 12 miles. You paid an extra 12...

    Mp1900 Tvs Up & Running On My Built 4.0sohc V6

    Cool. Good to know for any future plans. I've always wanted to do it, but just don't quite have enough knowledge or the tools to take on something that major yet.

    Mp1900 Tvs Up & Running On My Built 4.0sohc V6

    Would throwing one on an engine with over hundred thousand miles on it be a bad thing to do?

    Battery Dying

    An under-drive pulley will run your alternator at a slower than "normal" speed if you have one. Thus the possibility of it not charging fast enough when you leave it idle for a long period. 20 minutes still sounds awfully quick even for an under-drive pulley scenario. Have auto zone check your...

    Battery Dying

    And are you still running the original battery from when it was bought new? Probably going bad by now if so.

    Wheels-Tires 2006 V6 Deluxe Convertible Wheel Upsizing

    I hated my 16" tires. I went with a pair of 17" rims on eBay and got some new pirrelli's put on it. If the craigslist ad is a good deal, i would probably go for that one personally. But i don't have any good advice on what side affects you might get from getting those particular sized wheels. I...

    Really Excited about a 05 V6 I found, is this a scam?

    Yeah, adding all those mods doesn't necessarily increase the value of it, sometimes it can decrease the value of it. The pluses are that you get those mods and it only has 59000 miles. But you never know how rough it was driven. I would probably be shooting for the 9-10k range tops to be honest...

    Considering new Mustang...Need advice

    I have always considered a special order. Just to get the color and options i want. Let us know how things work out for you in the up coming weeks. :) Year or two from now, I'm hoping to upgrade from this 05 to a new V6 or maybe even try a 5.0 out.:banana:

    Considering new Mustang...Need advice

    Just out of curiosity cause I've never special ordered one, do you have to pay the MSRP or can you play with those numbers as well at the dealership?

    Rpm Drop, Engine Shutter

    Just recently, within the past few thousand miles (104k on the car), when I go to park after a drive, the RPM's will drop after engaging park and the engine will shutter. This causes a nice shake throughout the whole car but I can't make it repeat by putting it into drive and then back into park...

    Drivetrain Auto Transmission Sometimes Slow To Shift Into First

    Yeah. mine's one of the ones that does it in reverse about 1 in 3 times. Nothing else quirky going on though with my tranny though.

    2011-2012 Exhaust

    In a generic sense: Axle-back means what you are buying will replace the exhuast from the rear axle, to the back. Cat-back means it will replace the exhaust all the way from the catalytic converter, to the back.

    Misfiring I Need Help

    Yeah, mine doesn't idle near 600rpm unless it's in drive (auto) and usually like 800-1k in neutral/park. Can't say on the alternator part.
