friends both with 01 v6's have no problems. 1 was brand new, other was usedSeraphitia102 said:anyone ever experience head gasket issues on their 4.6? according to 3.8 forums, it's common on their engines
yes they're stock... there was nothing worthwhile for them to do to themSeraphitia102 said:are they stock mustangs? the problems I've heard regarding head gaskets usually applied to people who tuned up their cars. perhaps the 3.8 head gaskets can't withstand the heat of the additional power?

IF you have a manual, you wont have to worry about that. Get a good Dyno tune or burnt chip and your tranny will be fine. Depending on how much power you are putting to the ground of course.Seraphitia102 said:my friend's mustang has a major transmission failure and he believes it's because of the chip that he put in his mustang. according to the ford dealer that repaired it, they said that his pcm was completely destroyed and that the car was trying to change to gear 1 and 2 at the same time.
does anyone know anything about this? i mean if it's actually possible to take out a car's transmission with a chip?

w00t said:02' GT around 8500 miles, the rear window shattered because I used the defroster. Ford blamed it on the tint.
Seraphitia102 said:How did the tint ruin your window?
w00t said:I think it was a short in the defroster. Upon looking at the shattered glass it started close to that metal piece where the defoster hooks up and spread all the way across the window. Good thing the tint was there because that was the only thing holding all the shattered pieces. The first dealership I took it to denied my claim. So, I took back to the one where I purchased the car and they covered everything was about $1500 bucks in charges if I remember correctly.
