I have had the tic since I bought my stang.I checked the oil and it was good so I figured when I took it in for the first oil change I would have them check it out. I do have another problem for them to check, at about 2800 rpm's in 1st gear I have a dead spot in the throttle.I happens everytime unless I go w.o.t.

Your response is annoying and funny at the same time. Good show!

I get great pleasure out of pissing people off and getting them to laugh at the same time... unless the guy is my boss and laughing because he just fired my azz.

Every time Nuke posts, I want to smack him upside the head, but I'd do it with a big grin on my face.

By the way, smart guy, I can find no evidence that the TSB mentioned is applicable to anything close to the 2010 model. What's the number?

glad I bought mine a year ago, cuz all these ticks, buzzing doors, squeaky front end when driving over speed bumps(yes there is a tsb for the 2010) where front end parts need replaced, I'm not gettin all these things shakey steerings, none of that with14,000 miles, and tires still look new...maybe they said hey we need to build in some problems so we can have people make more service appts., they realize after makin mine they made a service free car. who knows lol
