There is probably a core charge.... either that or when you bought the car, you really didn't buy all of it.

Is the needle acting "sticky"? Does it behave "normally" under vacuum conditions and act up once under boost or is it just erratic all the time?

Because of its "hoop" shape, I think it would be an absolute bitch to 3D print....

More misinformation... A low battery will effect the Gauge Control Module and could cause the inability of one or more gauges to properly "check in" (aka, get assigned an address so the GCM can communicate with the gauge throughout that start session.) When this occurs, one or more gauges will...

If Ford replaced under warranty, they have a right to keep the old ones. If you paid for the new ones, Ford has no right to the old ones.

IDK, I'm thinking that big smile looks pretty damn genuine!!

If anyone has an old set that I can borrow....

I think for an informed GT buyer, you should at least have AN ANSWER for the following questions. (Note: It doesn't necessarily have to be a good answer. GT's have remarkably low maintenance requirements BUT, I think it is important for GT owners to get a good maintenance baseline and then...

Hachi - Please see the TSB regarding the rear main seal leak in the attached document. Note that the part from Ford has long since been discontinued... but you may be able to find directly from the company?

IMHO you don't need dye to detect the presence of motor oil.

Regarding the 2008 photo of the inside of the bellhousing.... yeah, that's a lot of oil. If you're still seeing seepage between the transaxle and engine block, it's safe to say you still have a leak at the rear main seal. That said, and I wouldn't get your hopes up, but there's a small...

It is highly unlikely that a SS is installed and an oil leak still remains. Possible? Yes. Likely? No.

There's only two possibilities. First, the hydraulically activated clutch throw-out bearing resides in the bell housing. That could be leaking, although I've NEVER seen it happen. In this case, the fluid would be brake fluid with a distinctive smell. Second, it could be the rear main seal...

Those rears would have a diameter of 45mm LESS than OEM. Might look pretty funny. Same for the front - 53mm LESS in diameter compared to OEM.

It would be interesting to learn how the heck that happened! When/if you have time....

JGT - Respectfully, please learn to use the search tool within this forum. You can get fast, accurate information to most if not all of your questions. The Forum has been here for 20 years... so as you might imagine, these rudimentary questions have been asked and answered a multitude of times.

The gauges look great. I'm assuming then that the boost gauge has been direct wired to its own MAP sensor or is the 30psi scale just for better aesthetics?

Huh? It is impossible to see the oil pump belt and pulley even with the pans removed. Oil pump pulley failure is not a thing and it is belt driven with a spring tensioner.

2027.... Giddy-up!!

A few guesses for you... On cold start, the GT is going to raise it's idle speed to somewhere in the 900-1200 rpm range. I've noticed too that GT's can have an inherent vibration at these higher rpm's coupled with high (cold) oil pressure. Most likely, this is what you may be describing...
