I sold my 02 Stang and i want buy a 07 GT Aut.

I drove one here in my city and i feel some strange. The first things its the lag when i push de accel. Its feel like 1 segs of lag from pushing the accel and when the car start to move.
Its norm?

It have 35k miles.

It have both rear air tires sensors bad. i need change it.. why could have both sensors bad?


Do i need know something important to know if the cars its good or bad?

You can "reset" the throttle calibration a bit. Key in ignition to on position. Do not start the car. Wait for most idiot lights to go out. Slowly put the pedal to the floor and slowly release.

I turned the key all the way off, then started the car. Seemed to help with abrupt takeoff problem in parking lot situations. Seems to have made things worse for me in reverse though. Not sure that's even possible, but feels like it.

Throttle by wire SUCKS!

Can't help on the TPS stuff.

The throttle lag is common and can be cured with the recal above or, better yet, a CAI & tune which will also add about 20 or more RWHP.

The TPMS sensors can be a number of things but having the TPMS warning light up is just a nuisance. Many here simply hit reset. Otherwise, if you want them fixed it could be as simple as the dealer recalibrating them or as expensive as replacing them. Many that get aftermarket wheels don't bother installing them.

ok.. so, its normal that lag. Any another thing to consider before buy it?

You should read all of the TSB's associated with the S197. They're tabulated in a stickie to this forum.

If I'd read all the TSB's before I bought the car, it may have scared me away. Glad I didn't... I think.

It's a fun car, and you already know how great the aftermarket is. Anything you don't like you can change.
