    Starter keeps cranking after engine starts

    Lately I've been encountering this intermittent issue where the starter remains engaged and keeps cranking for a few seconds after the engine starts. I have confirmed with a test light that when this occurs, the 'S' or trigger terminal on the starter is energized so it is not the starter...

    I seem to have lost all boost

    So I was in Indiana today and was going up a grade and heard a chirp/bark as I was on the throttle and the car fell on its face. I let out of it and got back in it and it was seemingly happy again. Over the next 50 miles or so, this happened a few times then eventually it never recovered. It now...

    PSA Check rear subframe to body mounts for rust if you live anywhere near the salt belt

    So I picked up a nail driving through a construction site on the way home from work today. I put the car up on jack stands to find the tire damage and while doing so, this rust caught my eye. It is hidden up behind the rear wheel liner so I had to remove that to get a good look. It is where the...

    Temporary Misfire and Pending Low Fuel Rail Pressure Code

    So I was stuck in traffic on my way home from work today and started getting a misfire/shake/flashing MIL/low power episode. Luckily, the car did not stall and leave me stranded in the middle of the roundabout and there really wasn't a good place to stop so I limped it along in traffic, but then...

    When it rains, it Pours. Turbo failed on the way to the transmission shop.

    <Just a rant> Car has had a torque converter shudder for a while. I was gonna try to fix it my self, even bought a salvage transmission to use as a rebuild core. Life/lack of facilities got in the way so opted to just have it done professionally. Finally got an appointment to have the...

    Does Anyone else's Gen 4 eat tires?

    So I was doing my 245k mi oil change and I noticed some cords showing through on the inside edge of my front passenger tire. The out side edge sill looks ok, and the 'Replacement tire monitor' is just starting to fade to 'Replace Tire'. I've noticed it wearing the inner edges before, and I've...

    2010 Squeal/Growl on hard acceleration

    I was merging onto the interstate today and under hard acceleration I got a noise I can only describe as a squeal/growl and the car fell on its face. At first I thought a charge pipe came loose (boost leak) or I lost another turbo (front turbo has about 15k miles on it, I think the rear is...

    Transmission Rebuild & Upgrade

    I believe my transmission is starting to slip in at leas 1st and 6th as well as occasionally 'neutral dropping' from a stop (try to accelerate from a stop and engine winds up like it's in neutral, then drops into gear, sequels tires and accelerates. It has only done this 3-4 times in the last...

    Strut / Shock Suspension Codes

    I had a toe link failure on my 2010 SHO, so after replacing both toe links I took it in for an alignment and they informed me that my front struts and rear shocks were bad (they lumped all 4 springs in with that 'recommended replacement'). My door sticker reads Suspension "CCGG" so when I...

    Is it time to replace turbos?

    I went to the store today and when i got off the freeway on my way home, I noticed a cloud of smoke and could smell burning oil as I stopped at a traffic light, then every time the turbos spooled on the rest of the drive home, it put out a cloud of smoke. I got home shut it off let it sit for a...

    Sony Subwoofer Amp / Audio Upgrade

    So I'm finally tired of the Sony audio system as it is and am looking to upgrade. Does anyone know the output specs for the Sony DSP and the external subwoofer amp mounted below it? I think I will upgrade it in steps as to keep the up front cost down. I've read several threads about upgrade...

    squeak/chime noise under hard breaking

    I just did the 200,000 mile oil change on my 2010, and I sent a sample to Blackstone, i'll try to remember to post the results when they come in, but I digress, yesterday some one cut me off hard, I was full on the breaks all it could muster and I heard what sounded like an electronic...

    Increased Induction noise when really cold

    This is mostly a question for our cold climate friends, but does anybody else notice significantly more induction noise from their SHO until the engine warms up when it is really cold out? I got out of work today and it was below 0 F (it is currently -1F or just under -18 C) and I noticed my...

    ABS Module Part # differences

    I'm looking at replacing the ABS Module on my 2010 SHO to hopefully fix my sinking brake pedal. Ford wants almost $1800 for a new one so that is not an option, and even the $600 or so non Ford, remanufactured units are out of my budget, so I have been looking on eBay for used units. The part...

    Coolant leak from upper radiator hose?

    I was doing my 195k mile oil change today and noticed a line of coolant dripping down the sub frame. On a quick look, there seems to be coolant dripping from the plastic T junction in the upper radiator hose. Has anyone had to replace this hose for a similar leak? Any other thoughts on where it...

    Motor cycling under dash

    So lately I've been noticing a noise apparently coming from the driver's foot well of my 2010 SHO, that I can only describe as a cycling motor. I assume this is the driver's side blend door actuator hunting for position. Is there a diagnostic in the EATC that can be run to pinpoint the failing...

    Gates vs Motorcraft Water Pump

    Hello All, I think I need to replace the Oil Pump (See https://shoforum.com/index.php?threads/oil-pressure-warning-at-idle.136523/) and I figure the water pump is on borrowed time, so I plan to change that while I'm in there. So I was going through making a parts list on the Ford Parts site and...

    Oil Pressure Warning at idle

    I bought my 2010 SHO on the 1st of September and it has been my daily driver since. I changed the oil a couple weeks ago because the dealer I bought it from had used a non Motorcraft filter when they changed the oil, and I thought that might be what was causing a rattle on startup, but changing...
