    Sway bar bushing kit & tires

    Hi, I'm looking to get set of new front sway bar bushings for a 2006 GT which has about 1.5k miles and the front front rattles, and turned out the bushings of the sway bar are shot. So looking for these bushings, is not clear for me, if these are the correct P/N for them or are the links or...

    Wiper motor intermitent working condition

    Yes, that's what I came after searching for the Optima replacement. I know it's AGM and is specific charging setup, the Midtronics equipment we have in beyond a standar AGM/LEAD battery charger/diagnose system :) but thecharger needs the specific CCA of the battery to get a accurate report of...

    Q: First time service ever in this GT40

    Battery seems to be in good health and last time we checked with the diagnostic stations, it passed the test. When I cycle the IGN ON, I wait couple of seconds to come the trip counter display and "self test" (if that happens in a hiden way?) of the cluster before push the Start button, and most...

    Q: First time service ever in this GT40

    Now, we can add this GT to the gauge fail list. VAC/BOOST gauge won't read after few attempts or cycling the IGN key or start/shut down the engine. Also the tach among the water temp gauge won't work smetimes. Already read the various threads about the gauge failure so I think this GT will rest...

    Q: First time service ever in this GT40

    Thanks for the tips. Now I need to change the transaxle fluid. I think I need 4 quarts of MOTORCRAFT FLUID - TRANSMISSION #(XT75W90QGT) ? Also, it’s necessary to add Motorcraft rear axle additive friction modifier XL-3 (4 oz. bottle)? If so, how many bottles is needed (I would guess just one...

    Q: First time service ever in this GT40

    Thanks for the tips and help all you. We finally managed to bleed the coolant system sucesfully. The only left work to do is change the transaxle oil and S/C oil. All these fluids were factory filled and been like 6 years since and only 900k miles on the clock. The transaxle seems to have a...

    Q: First time service ever in this GT40

    Thanks man! I already flushed the clutch fluid and bled the system. I will throw some photos of the car and process today. I found locally the original Motorcraft Gold Coolant stuff, so it will be used all OEM, like it should be :) I'm reading the owners manual at it says, both the intercooler...

    Q: First time service ever in this GT40

    In the other hand, we are changing the coolant. Unfortunately, we don't have the Motorcraft Gold coolant stuff arround here so I'm unsure if go with this MOPAR coolant or the MOBIL which is in a drum that doesn't require add water as well. Suggestions between these two? Both are "pink" color...
