• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

    A little wheel wiggle

    Hi all. I've noticed an noise increasing in volume over the last few weeks. I suspected it was a wheel bearing as I've heard this noise before. I jacked the car up and gave it a little wiggle and found that the left front tire had some movement and a small clunk on the top/bottom wiggle. Not as...

    Rear defrost only works intermitantly

    Hey all. I have a quick question. A while ago, I noticed on my 2004 GT, the rear defrost works only intermittently, and usually only after the car has warmed up. I also have to hold the button down for a few seconds before it'll click on. I tested the relay and fuse and booth check out. I took...

    Trying to figure out a slightly uneven acceleration

    This will sound nit-picky, but it's the kind of thing that bothers me. I have a 2004 GP GT, NA. A few months ago I did a small tune up. The belt was wore, so while I had it off I also replaced the tensioner. At 145K miles, I figured I'd just be proactive about it. I aslo picked up a PCV valve...

    Blower motor squeal and...

    This winter I have had a few days were the blower motor sounded like it was ripping a rodent in half. Just this tortured scream. But it only did this for about 2 seconds. Lately, I've been hearing an additional squeal from the dash/blower motor area. The odd thing is that the sound isn't...

    New brakes, odd squeak

    Hi all. A few weeks ago I replaced my pads and rotors with new ceramic pads and fancy-schmancy drilled rotors. They have been good at stopping the car, but over the last week or two, I've been getting an increase in squeak from one wheel. I don't think it's a dust shield problem, as it's not a...

    Hung up rear calipar with a "pop" in the parking brake

    This is sadly my first rear disc brake car, so I'm not positive on how the parking brake works. I have an '04 GT, with a stock brake setup. I just replaced the pads and rotors all around with a nice new set. Going into this, I didn't know that the rear calipers needed to be turned it put them...

    Brake rotor removal tip.

    Hi all. I've gotten some good information from this forum, so I wanted to post a tip I found on-line and used this weekend. Worked great on my 2004 GP after banging on the rotor with a hammer for 20 minutes. As it's demonstrated in this video, it works really well. Remove Rusted Brake Rotors (...

    Looking for a remote starter

    Just a quick question while the wife isn't looking over my shoulder. I want to surprise her with a remote starter, and I'm looking for recommendations. My budget is $200, but hopefully to be under that, and I'd like to only have one fob. Car is a 2004 GT, no other security systems or anything...

    Guessing I have a bad alternator, flickering lights

    Hi all. I've gotten a lot of good info from this forum, but I'm looking for some confirmation or opinions on this one. I've been noticing that my car was starting slower for a few weeks. Then about two weeks ago, just as I said to my wife "we're going to have to get a new battery soon" the...
