    Speedometer Malfunction

    Within the last 500 miles the speedometer on my '06 GT has taken on a mind of its own. Occasionally the needle will jump all over the dial for a while, then return to indicate the normal speed I'm driving. What's going on and what is the fix?

    Replacement Boost Gauge

    Well, I went out on a limb and decided to buy a replacement boost gauge from Ford for my 2006 Ford GT. It only took 7 months for the gauge to show up at a cost of $1,040 (!!!) I'm the original owner. My boost gauge stopped working several years after I bought my car. At that time the general...

    Replacement of Boost Gauge on 2006 Ford GT?

    Neither the Speed Hut nor Auto Meter gauges are an exact visual match for the original boost gauge. Is there a product out there that is? Replacing every gauge with something that doesn't look original and just replacing one gauge that doesn't match the rest visually would be an eyesore, no...

    Here's a stray thought: Is there anyone, anywhere who can repair a non functioning boost gauge? Also, who manufactured the original ones for Ford? Today I checked at my local Ford dealer and found out the OEM boost gauge from Ford costs $953.63 + tax!! I fell like I'm falling down a rabbit...

    Replacement of Boost Gauge on 2006 Ford GT?

    Has this issue been sorted out? I'm the original owner and the boost gauge on my car stopped working about 2 years after I bought my car. At that time the word was that Ford was going to redesign the gauge so it wouldn't fail but had not yet done so. Can I go ahead and look into replacing it...

    Dead Boost Guage

    Yesterday while I was replacing the original battery in my '07 Ranger, the local Interstate Battery merchant I work with gently urged me to replace the original battery that is still nestled in my '06 Ford GT. I'm going to take his advice and probably go with an Interstate battery or upgrade to...
