    Speedometer Stuck

    Yes it records correctly above 20 mph but sticks at the highest mph I go until I stop then it drops back to 20 and stays there until I go above 20 again. I’ve been on a tender with new battery in past 3 years, no other gauge is malfunctioning, seems mechanical to me

    Speedometer Stuck

    After 17 years and keeping car on a tender I have had my first gauge failure, the speedometer is stuck at 20 mph, will go up as I go faster and not go down as I slow down, but drop back to 20 mph when I stop. Is this most likely a speed sensor issue or a total speedometer failure?

    Tire availability 2005/2006 GT

    Pirelli just came out with new edition tires for the Enzo, which I believe are the same size as our GT tires. Anyone know if they might fit because I’ve run Bridgestones for the past 15 years..looks like the rear ones will fit but not the front..

    Stereo sounds mediocre at best

    Get a radio shop to connect a cord to the Mac that is compatible with your I phone plug, on accessories. That's the best low cost solution, sounds great.

    Tach and speedometer repair experience

    Replace your battery before you do anything more. My gauges were acting sporadically even though battery would start the engine. Replaced it with new Optima and everything works now.

    Whats Latest Battery Advice?

    My Diehard is finally going bad after 12 years and what I've read is over 10 years old. Some folks suggest Optima and others hate them. Sears is gone so... what battery is the best now and please include model number. Thanks

    Looking for a GT (2005-6), first time buyer would like to know a bit more.

    Agree with the miles thing, your best bet is to find a one or two owner with 15-25k miles since the lower miles cars may have issues from sitting

    Gauge Failure Prevention

    OK, say what you will about keeping a charger on your car but I still haven't had even an intermittent gauge failure since I started keeping the car on a tender.

    Ford vs. Ferrari Film (2019)

    I think there will be a keen new interest from all kind of non car folks in our 12 year old cars after this movie premieres. Might even bump up values
