    2013+ Shocks on a 2012 SHO???

    Now that I have your attention, read these 3 posts. I'm looking to replace / upgrade my shocks / springs. I think I've settled on PP shocks / struts with H&R springs. I'm having trouble finding the correct part #'s to order. Can someone help me out? Also, if anyone has this setup or something...

    Re-program door lock master code

    I had 2 working keys and got a 3rd one cut/programmed. The standard (home) programming wasn't working so I had a key company connect to program it. While he was in, he saw a 4th key and asked if I still had it. I told him I had no idea what that was and asked him to delete it. Fast forward a...

    Falken Tires??

    I usually run Nittos but I need some new / good / cheap tires fast (low tread and I just found a sidewall bubble). I can get a set of these to my door for $700 (tax and shipping). I've never run Falkens and don't think I've heard any bad reviews of them. I know most of you have your favorites...

    Let's Talk Aftermarket Stereos

    I've talked about this before but I think I found almost everything needed to swap the stereo on my 2012 SHO. According to Idatalink, I can swap my factory Sync 1 (MyTouch) radio with the following and keep all of the factory compatability: https://a.co/d/6L4Ft5G - Pioneer DMHW4660NEX (6.8")...

    Power Steering Assist Fault

    This happened a couple years ago and I just cut it off and started it again and it worked fine. It did it a couple days ago and was fine after turning it off and back on. Last night it took 4 cranks to get it going. Initially I'd crank it, let it run through checks and it'd fail. When it...

    Vapor Canister Purge Valve for a 2012 Taurus SHO

    Has anyone with a 2010 - 2012 replaced this part? See attached for the one that's currently on my car. Does yours look like that? Usually I can just call Ford, give them my VIN, and order the part, assuming they haven't marked it up unreasonably. When I first called, they gave me part #...

    Studder at low RPM's

    My 2012 has been having studdering issues for about 6 months. It's not horrible (yet) but it's getting annoying. It feels like the car needs to downshift when I'm not pulling it hard. Like it's not getting enough power and gently jerks to keep up with the throttle it's receiving. It got pretty...

    Battery Recommendations

    Hey guys, my SHO has sat in the (climate controlled) garage for a week while I wait on brake pads to deliver and the battery completely drained. As in, no lights would work or anything else. It's about 3 years old so I think it's time for a new battery. I usually upgrade to a Optima Yellow Top...

    Coolant Temp Higher on Cold Crank

    My SHO has been my daily for 3 years now. I'm running 1 degree cooler plugs, 170 degree stat, 93 octane tune, CAI, 3 bar MAP, and a catch can. I do all of my own maintenance. I have my Livewire TS set up to alert certain min / maxes. This past Saturday, it alerted me on coolant temp. The car...

    Custom Fiberglass Subwoofer Enclosure

    One of the first mods I did to my car was a subwoofer. Well, technically several subwoofers. I started with the Kicker Hideaways but they weren't cutting it so I ended up with a Solo Baric 10" sub and a amp capable of 500 watts RMS @ 4 OHMs. The amp and all of the wiring are hid behind the...

    2012 Peeling Fake Chrome Tail Lights

    What have you guys with 2010 - 2012 SHO done about the peeling fake chrome? I'm debating on buying a set of used tail lights from a base model to swap out. I've also considered sanding the plastic chrome and painting it but I don't know what color would look right with my car. Another option...

    PTU / RDU Fluid Change

    Hey guys, I've been lurking the forums lately and came across some posts about changing the PTU fluid. I have a '12 non PP SHO so I'm sure there's no drain plug. My car has nearly 80K miles and there's no telling if the previous owner ever changed it. I sure haven't in the nearly 20K miles I've...

    Low gear boost

    I'm not sure if I'm having an issue or if it's always been this way, but recently I noticed that I'm getting no boost at all in 1st and 2nd gear. Even if I drive in manual mode and shift at higher RPM's than auto would, I'll be in vacuum and essentially get right at 0 boost but I never see any...

    Sync 3 File Request (Android Auto)

    Hey guys, I have a 2012 SHO that's supposedly not compatible with Android Auto. I'd like to find out if that's really true. Does anyone have a Sync 3 update stored on their computer that they're willing to share? I have a feeling the system will run some checks and fail if I try to install it...

    Aftermarket Stereo / 1st Gen Sync Swap?

    Has anyone changed theirs? I would like something with Android Auto. From what I've seen online I believe there are aftermarket solutions. I don't care about losing satellite radio (I don't use it) or navigation if Android Auto works. My Bluetooth/inputs are finicky. Some days they work...

    2012 SHO Mod Recommendations

    Alright guys I just sold my 07 GT C/S Convertible Mustang with Roush Supercharger for something a little more family friendly. Getting the kids in and out of the back was becoming a chore... And it had close to 140K miles so I figured I'd sell it while it still looked and ran like a champ. So I...
