Yep good to see ya on road......mine from my track incident might be back next week, found out something new, and is it a hats off or not to Ford? Well the part that is holding me up, front right strut.......oh yeah..I see the call now, I need a strut for 2010-2011 mustang V6.....well take it from the person that is suffering, the part is on back order, and now everyone has learned the 2011 strut is different than the 2010....so Ford makes the 2010 & 11 look same? but the srtuts are different, I could not beleive but when they drove the car and could not find the flap, flap noise, they saw the strut having a issue, realized it was different part number and not like the left...hmmmm...learning daily about this '11 V 6...

Do you have any tsb numbers or part numbers you can share? I never liked the clutch feel in my car and I need ammo to take to my service manager. Pm me if you don't want to post it, thank you very much!

I don't have it with me right now. I'm at work. I'll take a look tomorrow and see what part numbers they have on there. I know they listed 5 separate parts on the invoice: clutch cylinder (I'm assuming they mean master cylinder for this), clutch slave cylinder, flywheel, flywheel bolts (quantity 6), and "clutch assembly" (I was assured that this included plate, disk, and release bearing).There's no mention of a TSB on the paperwork they gave me. And the clutch feels different now than when I got it. It makes me wonder if there was an issue when I first got the car and it took this long to completely fail. The clutch used to not disengage until about 3 or 4 inches into the pedal travel (about half way). Not it starts to disengage about an inch into the pedal travel (about 1/6 of its total travel). Plus it feels lighter than it did before and the clutch pedal always seemed to hang just a bit towards the end when you'd let your foot off of it before they fixed it. The pedal feels like a Toyota Yaris now. Very light. It took some getting used to, but I like it now. I took it for a nice scenic 60 mile drive through the mountains today with plenty of shifts and plenty of high revs and it handled like a champ without even the slightest hitch. And to 6 + 6, I hope you see your car soon and without issues

Thanks glad your happy..........hey no one asked and we can maybe put this to rest...is the shutter still there when you let off the gas in 2nd or 3rd at around 2000 to 2500 rpm like a lot of us feel that ford says is normal, migt be we all have defective assembly if went away when you got fixed?

LTDan

No, that's still there and just as noticable. But both manual cars I drove for an extended period (2000 protege for 50k miles and an 02 ranger for 90k miles) of time that I owned before this had something similar somewhere in the RPM range when letting off the gas pedal. The vibration issue honestly doesn't bother me, as I'm the only one that notices it and only through the shifter. I think it is normal operation for these vehicles and Ford probably won't do much about it since it's not a reliability or safety concern. Are you feeling or hearing it throughout your entire car? That would be annoying. Only my shifter vibrates. No noise or vibration throughout the rest of the car.

And for part numbers as requested earlier taken from my invoice:

W715869 S439 Bolt and washer assembly (quantity 6)
