Hmmm, I did pm it yesterday? Surely you've been getting pm's from others? I'll try again or perhaps you could pm me and I'll respond. Thanks again!

I talked to GTJoey about his logo'd cap, and he told me to watch what I wish for since you have to remove the right front fender to make the swap! :eek However since MarkO made his post about removing the fender I'm not nearly as intimidated. Doing that work would only take me and a tech two...

That's my post from 2/8 but I didn't make the list? I'd still like one if you have any left. I pm'd my address. Thanks!

Struggling with color selection for my Tungsten. Thinking about the black or polished. But then the blue with the head covers as aforementioned... :confused

Happy Belated Birthday Chip! You beat me into this world by 23 days!

Congrats and thanks!

Absolutely! I hope I never made it sound otherwise. Of course it doesn't hurt that I've bought 40 trucks for my businesses from them since January 1st, with more to come. (You're welcome Ford stockholders!)They are a great old-fashioned family dealership. Having trouble keeping techs since the...

Final installment, unless someone else keeps bumping it. Mainly writing updates and follow up in case someone else has the same or similar issues. The Alternator/Voltage Regulator combo was replaced, and everything is running fine. Although the 3rd battery was drawn down completely in just over...

What everyone said here... See my Battery Woes thread. I recently found out it takes a mild amount of force to turn the key counter clockwise and pop the door open. About the same amount of force it takes to mash one of the old manual buttons like on a '60's car.

Thanks for the input, it's an '06 Tungsten with a Nov '05 build date (car's not here to confirm). They are pretty sure there is an issue with the voltage regulator and/or the alternator, since they are attached. Waiting on parts. I'll mention the Mac power supply issue as well as climate...

Make them replace whatever ends up damaged and the car will be fine. Drive it hard and this unpleasant experience will soon fade from your memory!

Is there a link to an online version?

Printing out SteveA's response. Was going to take the car to the dealer today and guess what? Battery #3 is dead. Something in my car is sucking these batteries dry in only a day or so. Battery #3 was brand new Tuesday night, They did not put it on the tester but the voltmeter said it had 12.9...

MarkO I have negative thoughts toward you for highjacking my thread; drawing attention to that caricature in Todd's avatar. I'm going to have to change my avatar to one of the beautiful redhead such as those I used to use on the other boards... Taking the car to the dealer today to have them...

It's only Tuesday and I can't wait for the weekend! It'll be great to see a GT and a Viper going at it.

Frank they did check it out of the car; the car has never left my garage and I've been swapping the batteries out here. Todd I did check the ground where it bolts to the frame at the end of the cable opposite the battery. I did not sand the area though, just cleaned it and made sure it was...

Yes and perhaps some others.

Hmmmm, I know they hooked it up to a diagnostic machine and I think it puts a quick charge on the battery before it does it's thing. Showed the battery was good (at that time). I'll ask tomorrow as the diagnostic machine is hooked up again.

Well I went out and tried again and this time used some force in the counterclockwise direction and it did open so I'm in anyway. I removed the battery when I got home and there was acid on it and the surrounding area. I got some stuff from the Ford dealer to identify and neutralize the acid...

Sorry to keep bumping my own thread but the saga continues. After I installed the new battery I followed the owners manual for letting the computer relearn the fuel management program etc. Everything went fine except it seems I blew a fuse for the audio system and the volt meter was acting...
