Gt-p Gets Spanked
If I had the bugs...I would go into a Ford dealership tommorrow and buy a GT....not saying I don't love the "T" but I love that V8 burble..its so sweet...well that's my 20 cents worth...I'm not really too bothered about quarter mile times or 0-100 times...lets face it both cars are quick enough..well for me anyway....(I'm probably showing my age)....a RED or Orange GT with stripes sounds so yummy...

Premium Brakes
Boosted My brakes even squeal after some heavy stopping....I was told by Ford Customer Service that I should have one foot on the brakes and the other on the pedal whilst driving and keep it for around a minute...to warm up the pads and that would get rid of the squeal...well it doesn't work....squeal squeal squeal.....

Premium Brakes
Hi Kornds Yes the squealing brakes is an issue...you should approach your dealership and complain...as I have numerous times...on my 3000 k service they have told me that this problem is known to Ford and that they are working on a solution....apparently they reckon its a caliper and Brake compound issue...if all squealers unite and complain maybe we can have a resolution sooner than later....I ask all squealers to come out!!!!
