When I ordered my car 2 years ago, I did extensive research on the 10R80. What a horror story! At that time there was 3 class action lawsuits going. It is the hottest running trans out there, you have to use a special fluid for it. The root cause of the problem is that Ford didn't want to...

Read the GT350 and Mach 1 forums about changing the fluid and what it will do for shift quality. They use the same Tremec 3160 gearbox. The Motorcraft fluid is crap. I put Redline D6 in mine and what a vast improvement. If you change the fluid, the owner's manual quantity doesn't take in account...

Hi Mitch, Need help in getting the P/N for a 10mm stud mount tie. It is an Avery Dennison P/N 20153-0. On their website it says that it's Ford # FU5T-14E047-KA. Local dealer can't find the real Ford number. It fits over a stud holding the shock tower brace and holds the battery cable in place...

It is an Avery Dennison 10mm Stud Mount Tie, P/N 20153-0. On their website it says that it's Ford # FU5T-14E047-KA. They are on E-bay if you want to buy 1,000 of them. My local Ford dealer can't find it in the parts fiche. He says that he is in contact with Ford and no luck so far.

I think this might be the name, not sure though. It slips over the stud on the shock tower and holds the battery cable in place. I had to cut it to get the shock tower brace off.

If you change the fluid, don't go with chart above for fluid quantity. It doesn't take in account the fluid that is in the cooler. Your going to need about 3.5 qts. If you go with the Redline D6 they sell it by the gallon. Got mine from Amazon. I can't emphasize enough what a vast improvement in...

The Motorcraft fluid is crap. https://www.mustang7g.com/forums/threads/stiff-shifting-with-tremec-trans.159617/

I checked my knuckles today and what a pain in the ass to see the serial numbers. To get a good look at the numbers with the cell phone, I had to take off the caliper. The caliper is held in with the longest caliper bolts I've ever seen, about 4"s long. Putting the caliper back on, I had to use...

Thanks, found it. Also was able to lock in some presets. It looks like the number of presets is limited to about 6. Seems like a low number to me. My Lincoln has a bunch of presets for each source. It's been awhile, but there is 30 presets. I think you have to open the SiriusXM module and...

I ordered the American Muscle Clutch Pedal Spring. They advertised that it fits ALL 15-24 mustangs except the GT350 and 500. Well it doesn't fit the Dark Horse. The spring diameter is much smaller then the stock spring. I couldn't muscle the stock spring back in and had to drive it to my...

Hate to have to tell you roadpilot, but you had a Branden moment. I didn't touch the thread after I posted it. Since nobody responded I guess nobody is protecting them with ceramic wax.

Do you guys put ceramic wax on these pcs or leave them un-protected? Thamks

I had the dealer do the recall inspection yesterday and there was no issues. I was one of the people that had the info screen randomly staying black on start-up. The dealer installed 2 software patches for APIM and GWM modules, TSB 24-2129. Time will tell if this cures the problem.

Put the oil pressure and battery gauges on the instrument cluster's and retro fit it on the 24's.

Full hand. Especially between 1st and 2nd.

I changed the fluid at 2000 miles to Redline ATF D6. What a difference! The ATF Ford puts in the gearbox might be good for automatics, it's not very good in a manual. I was sometimes getting borderline gear grinding on shifts, not now. The shift quality is vastly improved. It didn't improve the...

If your not sure if the people doing your oil change put in the right amount of oil, pull the dip stick and verify it.

Does anyone know what fluid Ford is putting in these gearboxes at the factory? I think they are coming to Ford dry because they have to hook up the cooler lines.

At 700 miles I changed the engine oil and had the mechanic pull the fill plugs on the tranny and diff to make sure they were full. They were, but the diff had 3 metal chips on the plug. The mechanic said to bring it back at 1500 miles to change the fluid. At 1500 miles he drained the diff, the...

Ford, you are monitoring this forum. You can stop all the speculation about this opening in the liner. It's obvious the opening was manufactured into the liner. What is the purpose of this slot, besides letting gravel in?
