You know, I really don't know! At first I thought it was the CC plates (Steeda 3 bolt) but they are mounted fine and torqued to spec. I was thinking something in the front suspension since my car is lowered with H&R SS springs (2 inch drop).

I am going to have the dealer take a look at it in the Spring, when I take it out of Winter storage. If you want me to shoot you a PM with the technician's diagnosis ... let me know!

i'd like that PM too please. ive tried to figure that stupid noise out for a while, but to no avail. happens under heavy braking and while on a steep incline/decline

1999 GT
142K on the body
honestly other than blowing the mtr, tranny and rear end the rest of the car has lasted me quite well


2003 TERMI
18K miles
blew the halfshafts (twice now has a solid rear)
tranny got stuck in 4th (bent the fork)
damn front headlights all fogged up
the previous owner had the "tick" in the head and was replaced
and how much more my insurance is compared to the GT

Slow

likes to drink oil.. or maybe its because i rev the piss of it in daily driving for no reason.

my exhaust hangers are broke so the exhaust scrapes on 4x4 stock springs.

biggest newest problem: Its overheats so i have to blast the heat on full max a/c setting when its 94+ degree outside or else it overheat than coolant overboils out the car. =[

thats it.

1. has a 2v motor. lol
2. cats hang too low and i cant lower the 4x4
3. the 3650 sucks as a tranny.
4. this is a problem more with how ford built the car but the spark plugs are a pain to get to but were fixed in 05.

but nothing really major still runs like a champ.

I believe my rear end is completely shot. Teeth are missing or something. When I accelerate turning a corner it bucks and jumps and skips. When I am cruising and push the clutch in there is a clunking that is constant with the speed of the car.

Midas told me the rear end was shot. 1500 to fix...

She is a garage queen right now until it gets warmer so I can dig into it or until someone on here helps me out!

BAH

Blower like noise comes from alternator bearings when cold. AC compressor makes a weird ass noise when cold. o/r x pipe rubbed (fixed) 89k and the previous owner didn't have depth perception. Every corner has been scraped. Smells like a bowling alley inside. Driver rear side window leaks water when I wash her.

-rear end "pops" when turning at low mph, only started after shop installed gears
-2nd gear syncro hits and grinds when cold, always been like that, ford wouldent replace under warranty
-Loud wind noise from windshield driver corner, replaced twice and still does it,??
- Rides like poo, lowered to much, my fault
-6 disc changer loves acting up on its own, swear i think its alive sometimes
- Something was rattling under car, got in a wreck and it fixed it, or dropped it one
- Just got car back from shop, lady pulled out in front of me, now the door drops when opened, and horn now sounds like a dieing cat?? Will take back soon
- Full lenth headers hit everything, even small roadkill
-draws attention which sometimes is bad

1. Intake Manifold cracked the second day I owned it. 98K miles
2. Was having trouble with a misfire but fixed with new wires and plugs
3. The actual stranded wire on the FRPP wires I bought stuck out of the boot, causing it to arc to my valve cover bolt, causing a misfire
4. Could never shift the gears very fast because it would grind
5. Tranny finally broke
6. Spec clutch chattered horribly
7. Replaced under their warranty, still chattered, just not as bad
8. Put in a 99 PI motor
9. Disappointed in how my crower 2's dont lope at all
10. Broke the rebuilt tranny, and have LONGtubes now
11. Swapped rear ends with my friend (traded my 410's for 373s. Now I have a slightly leaky rt rear axle seal and a leaky pinion seal. but not as much gear noise which is good
12. EBRAKE rattles
13. Front end clunks (hoping cobra control arms will fix it)
14. Rear end clunks (would like to blame MM XHD control arms but not sure what it is)
15. I cant stand the idle on this car, it should idle at 1200 in the morning, then quickly drop to 700 and be good about dropping after its warmed up.
16. Instead it idles around 900 almost all the time, if not higher
17. Wide tires cause the car to pull on certain roads
18. Need to repaint my front bumper
19. Ground for cooling fan got corroded and melted the connector. So my car has boiled over 2 times so far. (fixed with a new pigtail)
