Few Issues though since the purchase.

1. Tank is not easy to fill with gas. I've heard that there are issues maybe with the design of the tank for 2006?
2. Air does not work unless it is turned onto setting 4. 1, 2, 3 don't work. No air at all comes out.
3. Side mirrors don't work with the electrical adjuster. I have to manipulate by hand which is a pain.

Also, my current engine is the stock 4.6. I was thinking of maybe upgrading the filter to K&M. Anyone in the NC area willing to help me and tune it?

I'm not a car guy at all, but thanks to youtube I changed the cabin air filter today myself. (feeling accomplished). Baby steps guys..... baby steps

Welcome to the forum, and congrats on that beautiful Mustang.

As for your questions, try starting a new thread in the appropriate Tech section, preferably the one for your year Mustang. There's always alot more forum members in those sections.

Good luck

My 2005 does the same thing. When filling it up I have to slowly put the gas in.

Done that since new. Some pumps are better than others.
