Hello Scotty!! I recently bought a 95 f150, I'm new to the driving game, and I've never worked on something that old, I've been driving it for a while now, and its time to change the oil, what kind of oil should I put in it? I've heard that on old vehicles you should run a heavier weight oil, is that true? If so what should I use? Thanks for the help! Cheers!
I'm gonna tremec swap mine once my 6 spd fails. And with the stg 1 supercharger in it, idk why it hasn't failed already long ago. I don't want to deal with problems associated with the 10 spd either

I have a friend that is an OEM supplier for FCA and he has told me that all automotive manufacturers are rabid on saving pennies on each part or component that goes into cars. He said that they will throw you overboard if they find something cheaper and quality is not a consideration
There not, I've worked at for now for over 4 years and have yet to see a manual transmission in a mustang fail, there is bulletins to help you diagnose transmission with very small percantages of problem.

Hey Scotty, I was born in, and live in Ithaca, NY, home of Borg Warner Automotive. Everyone I know who works there is proud of their products, so it's not a surprise that they have superior transmissions.
I have had four Mustang GT coupes -- all with the five-speed manual transmission. I had a 1988, 1993, 1995 and 2008. Much different than the newer models by far.
I'll take that 88 man . I had an 85 hatch and an 89 notchback . Both were funnest cars to drive I ever had. Both had t5s . I put a 5.8 in the 85 and left the 5.0 roller motor in the 89.
I had an 88 GT that on several occasions would just turn off. Left me stranded as a college student. No one could figure out what it was. Come to find out years later it was a faulty ignition key and fairly common once enough people complained about the glitch
I own a 16 GT manual getrag mt 82 trans. Its really a awesome 🚗. The trans is clunky and notchy. But its still a fun car. But man if it had a tremec trans it would be 10x better. I hope they fix this and give us all the tremec lol
Oh man. I have a 2017 Mustang GT standard. I’ve always thought I suck at shifting or that shifting just sucks because sometimes when I shift it’s like it snags on something moving and that vibration transfers to my hand which feels like I’m breaking something. Haven’t had any catastrophic problems but man this makes me feel a little mad. I took it to the dealer(it’s still under warranty) and they said “the car drives perfect” and sent me home.
Just keep an eye on it. When there's a defect it's not really a matter of IF but when. If this Class action actually goes through you'll probably be able to get new one put in for free.
Have you ever had any weird vibrations? My 17 GT with 22k miles sometimes snags on something when I shift and it hurts my hand. Is that normal? Maybe there’s something wrong or I just suck at shifting. It is my first manual transmission car. Been driving for like a year and a half now it happens less
I got very lucky with my 2014 GT. It was actually a Roush stage 3 I bought new July 2015, cheap! I took it up to a Mustang shop and had a smaller pulley, intake, etc... installed. Supposedly made 638hp/522tq after tuning. I traded it August 2018 with 23,000 miles on it, still had the stock MT-82 and clutch with no issues! The next person who bought it put 17” wheels out back with street drag radials. He ran it hard and still had no issues with the transmission! The rear end started making noise so he traded it for a Corvette after 15 months of ownership!
I bought my 2012 GT manual new. Now it has over 100K miles. Never a problem with gearshift. When I bought the car there were several service notices already issued on the problem. Didn’t worry me then and never had any issues. Don’t track it but has been faithful and problem free daily driver.
I picked up a dead MT-82 for a swap project for extremely cheap because it was grinding into second and lost 3rd. When I did the rebuild the gearset itself was in great shape but wow the shift guides are terrible little plastic bits, they were totally eaten up on the 3-4 dog. The shift forks seemed not terrible, which is what a lot of people seem to be blaming for the issues. I'm on aftermarket bronze shift guides now but haven't gotten the project driving yet to see how they do.
So you’re not safe with a Ford car. Automatic Transmission with the Focus and a Fiesta? Recall. Standard Transmission with a Mustang? Recall. How do you mess up a standard transmission.... even a Chinese company should be able to copy what America and Japan has been doing for decades....
The Chinese also manufacture products with lead paint and other toxins. They pollute their air and water with out concern. Nine of the ten most polluted rivers in the world are found in China. We would do our selves and the world a favor by cutting them off completely.
I have a 1987 AMG Ford Accord and after I've replaced just about every OEM part with aftermarket racing parts that cost 300% more it's pretty reliable.
Owner of a 95' Cobra with a Tremec T-5. The car had 180,XXX miles when the transmission gears finally started to make noise and it needed to be rebuilt.
Hey Scotty I have one of those stangs had the transmission rebuilt once, it’s a good strong unit but the problem is the shifter. It has a remote shifter, the front of the shifter is connected to the rear of the transmission and back of the shifter is connected to the body of the car, so when you are shifting gears at higher rpms the shifter is put in a bind because it doesn’t rollover along with the engine and transmission causing a gear lockout and it eventually eats up gears and synchronizes. I put a after market shifter bracket that took the shifter off the body, and a couple more things that hurts the shifting is the plastic hydraulic line on the clutch and the fact the the clutch shares the fluid with the brake system. I took care of all of that. I think That’s what Ford needs to do.
Part of the problem is that the shifter is mounted to the body and under hard torque shifting becomes difficult. There is a aftermarket mount that goes on the transmission and the shifter attaches to it. It just make shifts more reliable under hard acceleration with less chance of missed shifts. I think this might help with reliability.
Fortunately, my current Ford Mustang has a Borg Warner Transmission in it. Doubt I'll ever buy a newer one with all the fragile Tech that's going in the newer ones.
Borg Warner without a doubt make the best automatic transmissions and differentials. They were really popular in Australian cars. My dad bought a ford ex taxi with 500,000 kms and then drove it until it had 1,100,000 kms and then SOLD IT RUNNING for $600 original transmission. Also my uncle used to do burnouts in a car with Borg Warner differential, never changed the diff oil, I got it as my first car and drove it till it had 350,000 kms until i bought a newer car, diff didn't even make any noise.
I bought a 6r80 5.0 because after lots of research I couldn't find any one saying any thing good about the MT82 transmission. Honestly think I made the right desition only down side is it's not a manual and i have to tell people it's an auto and explain to them why I choose the auto over the manual. Wish it was a manual but I feel I made the right desition.
The MT82 is great, it’s only the 18s with the lightened shift forks that break. It’s a well engineered trans that shifts like butter. Getrag engineered them but they were made in China with cheap Chinese metal. Hit up Ben Calimer for 11-17 trans upgrades to replace the gear sets with American steel and you’re fine. I ran 740rwhp with a Whipple stage 2 for a year with stock trans and no problems.
I'll be happy if they replace my MT82 with a Tremec 😎 I've got a 2019 PP2, the transmission is mostly okay, but every now and then it acts kinda weird.
Last new FORD car I bought was a 2008 BULLITT Mustang. Looked great but the worst built car I ever owned. No more recent production FORD's, CHEV's, or MOPAR's for this cat.
This makes me so happy to hear... I have a 2018 GT with the MT-82 -D4. I have a video of how bad this transmission shifts. 20k miles on the car and its done this since day one. I hope we get a Tremec replacement!!!!
Thats the only mustang ill ever buy nowadays. I dont even like gt500 anymore cuz they got rid of the manual. Id rather have the new gt350 manual or a 2013 gt500 manual.
Even then you need to be careful if you get one, the "gen 1" voodoo motors seem to fail with dumb problems too often. Supposedly the new ones with the "gen 2" voodoo motors are better.
My old '67 E-type 2+2 had a Borg-Warner 3-speed auto. That boy was bullet-proof, Scotty! My neighbor, Arthur Tweedale, an old British race driver who won Sebring's 12 hour race against factory machines in his Lola, this man was our neighborhood hero, Scotty. His retirement from "service manager" for Jaguar in Alexandria, gave us kids much inspiration for muscle cars, sports cars, you name it. He drove a soft springed Caddie after his racing days! But I watched him bury the tach on his Alfa "Speciale." I'm sure you have youth down there gravitating to you, looking to you, as we do today. For us, we did lawn work for Arthur's help to check out cars before we bought them, and repaired them when needed out of the goodness of heart. I see the same in you. I saw the man cut two totaled MGB's in half, seamlessly weld the good halves together. No puppy trucking out of that boy. Straight as an arrow! :^) This brand of philanthropy and mentoring goes a long way. I'm sure your father has some stories too as your mentor. These are the biographies "the books of heaven" record for the 1000 year review of Earth's history.
You should be fine, the 6 speeds are good if you take care of them. The 10 speeds have issues. To many gears too close to each other. They even have a special fluid (ULV) that has a skull and bones mark on it. Only trans fluid I have seen that on it. Its because the gears are so close to each other a special thin fluid was made for the trans. If I have that 10 speed I would service the trans every 30-50k.
@@noahmcclure2515 maybe later in life. Its a pretty sick/awesome car, but probably too fast for me. My driveway and garage is just full with other cars including what my wife has anyways.
I used to be able to pop a T5 out under jack stands in about 30 minutes and roll it off my chest when I was younger while racing fox body's. Great 5 speeds rock solid. Cable clutch easy. replacement after a month of speed shifting .why aren't they still using these simple 5 speeds? Funnest cars I ever had besides shifting motorcycles
interesting... I have a 6spd 2016 and had the clutch and drive shaft replaced "under warranty" with only 30k miles on the car... this makes sense, this will be the last new car I ever buy... sticking with older cars I can buy cash. life was simple when I didn't have car payments...
Hi, @Scotty Kilmer ! Greetings from Ukraine! :-) I got 2002 Acura RSX Base model (automatic) with 160k mostly freeway miles. Transmission fluid most likely was never changed, so I’m thinking to charge it (not a hardcore flash). If with this new fluid transmission begins to slip, can I just remove freshly added fluid and put back the old fluid to fix transmission slippage? Thank you a lot!
@Arthur Wall for real, they have issues. And good luck supercharging those. That is what the guys here in Texas did, and their 10 spd wasn't having any of it. I'll probably swap my factory 6 spd for a tremec soon after the stg 1 supercharger blows it out. Stg 2 can wait.
I have a 2016 GT with an MT82. I don't race it but I drive spiritedly and it works fine. I think the issue is the shifter needs to be more solidly mounted with a Blowfish bracket or an MGW shifter.
The ONLY reason I sold my coyote mustang was because of the transmission. I adored the coyote and interior as well as aftermarkets support. Got so sick of RPM lockout and sold it. Will never be buying another mustang with an MT-82 again.
I own a 2013 GT with the mt82 and its been good even with 54k miles. I wanted a manual GT and the mt82 is the only option and I couldn't afford a gt500
I agree, some stock GT’s have some of the worst transmission I’ve driven, 2015-17 are particularly bad, even at 25k miles in the odometer the transmission may feel like its been through 75kmiles
I know how to drive manual transmission! However if i am going to buy a new car I'd pick the automatic because it's tricky and tiring when you go uphill traffic, hill start assist is a big help
My GE 8L90 auto transmission is flawless. I did have gm flush is with the new mobil 1 lv hp atf which is now required since the original fluid can absorb moisture. This transmission is a replica of the ZF with some changes. Bullet proof and shifts like a dct at wide open throttle.
Hey!-----Those older ford Foci with the regular torque converter automatics were pretty good. My 2007 with 115,000 is still going strong. The worst thing about them is the sticking heater/ac controls.
jeverett72 on the contrary, I bought a shitload of ford stocks when it bottom out at around $4. And now it’s at $6 so I already have massive gains while it’s still rising. My work is done 😎
I had several mustangs over the years starting with a 1999 Anniversary Edition, i love them maintenance is cheap and they turn heads once you trick em out 😍
I lost an Mt82 out of my 2012 GT in 8000 miles. I said it was a failed input shaft bearing. It was. Repaired under warranty. GT Mustangs were 75% manual at that time. I have a 2014 with a bulletproof 6r80 now....
5:40 I had an oldsmobile that had this problem and the check engine light was on the entire time I owned it because of it. It sounded like a broken vacuum cleaner under the hood so I just pulled the fuse. But to pass emissions it cost $600 to fix the stupid thing. Another brilliant GM idea.
Scotty...thanks for the info about the Ford Mustang transmissions. I have a 2014 Mustang GT with the 6 speed manual. No transmission issues yet but there aren't many miles on the car. I'm definitely looking into the class action lawsuit.
I’ve had a couple of these Ford trans and many miles, no issues. It’s only the 2018+ cars, the shift forks are breaking. Other than that the trans is good.
I currently own a 2011 manual 5.0 with 113k miles. Bought it used at 52k miles. I’ve never had a problem with the transmission. But I also haven’t taken it to the track 🤷♂️
I had a 2013 with slush-tronic auto trans. 3 months after warranty expired the transmission in would no longer shift gears when in manual mode. Then the airbags recall and after 6months of dealership Never having replacement parts I got rid of it. Then a few weeks ago I get a recall on my 2015 fiesta St about the door latches failing causing doors to no longer latch and possibly open whilst driving. No more Merican cars for me!
i have a 2018 manual GT. I LOVE my manual transmission. never had an issue with it. shifts smooth and i dont even use the clutch to change gears most of the time its that smooth. i only have 21000 miles on the car but im hoping i got one of the good ones. if i have an issue ill just slap a tremec in it and call it a day.
I like old fords not so much the newer ones. I just got my first truck and its a 89 f-150. Also its a stick and im in love with it already. Also its got the inline 6.
This is why, I would stick to the 2006 or 2008 Ford Mustang GT or GT/CS coupe or convertible with the 4.6 L V8 engine with 300 horsepower and the five-speed automatic or manual transmission. It is the best, modern Mustang around the world.
🤦♂️. You do know that 3V 4.6 has it's own problems right? Not to mention it doesn't hold a candle to the new 5.0 in terms of strength, reliability and power.
Getrag itself is not bad. Maybe Ford wanted to cut expenses. And Getrag said sure „We can make it even cheaper“. Here in europe we have many Getrag transmissions in Audis, VWs etc. ... They hold up just fine and don‘t break down.
She took her (Shelby?)Mustang to the track, trashed the transmission 3 times and got warranty? Wow. In my 2011 Shelby owners manual there’s a section called “if your warranty isn’t important to you” in which it’s explained that track related failures are not covered by warranty. I never had any trouble with the transmission, sold it in 2018 maybe the new owner not so fortunate.
I have had 2 Mustang customers with manual transmission problems. 2. But yes, those Chinese manual transmissions were weak and it took a month or more to get a replacement.
I would consider buying a nice used manual Mustang of this time period and install a good aftermarket manual transmission. I have always been a Ford Fan, but sometimes they forget the hard lessons they have learned when times were bad and resume making junk. I have a 2014 Ford Focus ST - with a 5 speed manual - and it's a great car. The automatic transmission equipped Focuses were a disaster.
While it is true, tremec is a better manual transmission, the MT-82 is not a terrible trans. I am a Ford technician and happen to also be a Mustang guy. I have had one (1) Mt82 that had a bad synchro. All other manual transmission issues have been operator error. I would be after ford about IMRC and oil consumption issues before the transmission.
I have 2 vehicles with Getrag transmissions. the difference from the Mustang transmission? one was made in Germany(F40) the other in Italy(F23). The one from F23 is going on 215k miles without issue and likely since I am not the original owner never had the gear oil changed. the newer F40 only has 65k miles on it so we'll see how that goes..

Because the MT82 transmission is made in China
They were hoping the warranty expires before the trans goes.

Too many gears and they made it too complicated. Just make a decent 5 speed and be done with it.
@@VASQUJA They do good virus
Between my Father and I, we have ran the Mt82 100,000 plus , with mods, on Mustangs 13 thru 16. No issues at all, although mostly highway miles.
I have a 1987 AMG Ford Accord and after I've replaced just about every OEM part with aftermarket racing parts that cost 300% more it's pretty reliable.
Owner of a 95' Cobra with a Tremec T-5. The car had 180,XXX miles when the transmission gears finally started to make noise and it needed to be rebuilt.
Getrag transmissions made in Wuhan China. Chrysler installed a getrag in 12 valve trucks, almost all of them blew up.
Coming from there it's probably contagious🤣.
CheapBastard1988 ha ha ha ha....

Hey Scotty I have one of those stangs had the transmission rebuilt once, it’s a good strong unit but the problem is the shifter. It has a remote shifter, the front of the shifter is connected to the rear of the transmission and back of the shifter is connected to the body of the car, so when you are shifting gears at higher rpms the shifter is put in a bind because it doesn’t rollover along with the engine and transmission causing a gear lockout and it eventually eats up gears and synchronizes. I put a after market shifter bracket that took the shifter off the body, and a couple more things that hurts the shifting is the plastic hydraulic line on the clutch and the fact the the clutch shares the fluid with the brake system. I took care of all of that. I think That’s what Ford needs to do.
Thanks for the info Scotty!
Part of the problem is that the shifter is mounted to the body and under hard torque shifting becomes difficult. There is a aftermarket mount that goes on the transmission and the shifter attaches to it. It just make shifts more reliable under hard acceleration with less chance of missed shifts. I think this might help with reliability.
Fortunately, my current Ford Mustang has a Borg Warner Transmission in it.
Doubt I'll ever buy a newer one with all the fragile Tech that's going in the newer ones.
It sounds like I may be better off just sticking a Tremmec T5Z in my '65.
Borg Warner without a doubt make the best automatic transmissions and differentials. They were really popular in Australian cars. My dad bought a ford ex taxi with 500,000 kms and then drove it until it had 1,100,000 kms and then SOLD IT RUNNING for $600 original transmission. Also my uncle used to do burnouts in a car with Borg Warner differential, never changed the diff oil, I got it as my first car and drove it till it had 350,000 kms until i bought a newer car, diff didn't even make any noise.
I'll stick with my 86 Trans Am.
But are you gonna stick cooking adobong manacc with your pontiacc car tito travis?
Much love for both of you from Philippines!
That's a nice car. My favorite Trans Am is '74 model.
I bought a 6r80 5.0 because after lots of research I couldn't find any one saying any thing good about the MT82 transmission. Honestly think I made the right desition only down side is it's not a manual and i have to tell people it's an auto and explain to them why I choose the auto over the manual. Wish it was a manual but I feel I made the right desition.
Manual transmission is the best antitheft measure
My 2008 mustang gt 6 speed got stolen the other day tbh lol
So no!!
Especially one that does not work.
@@wolfmannn2008 I was going to say especially if the mainshaft is broken in two!
The MT82 is great, it’s only the 18s with the lightened shift forks that break. It’s a well engineered trans that shifts like butter. Getrag engineered them but they were made in China with cheap Chinese metal. Hit up Ben Calimer for 11-17 trans upgrades to replace the gear sets with American steel and you’re fine. I ran 740rwhp with a Whipple stage 2 for a year with stock trans and no problems.
I'll be happy if they replace my MT82 with a Tremec 😎
I've got a 2019 PP2, the transmission is mostly okay, but every now and then it acts kinda weird.
Got a 2014 GT 6 Speed with 75k miles and no problems so far driven for a year
Last new FORD car I bought was a 2008 BULLITT Mustang. Looked great but the worst built car I ever owned. No more recent production FORD's, CHEV's, or MOPAR's for this cat.
My 2018 GT had transmission failure at 8,000 miles. It was an MT-82.
This makes me so happy to hear... I have a 2018 GT with the MT-82 -D4. I have a video of how bad this transmission shifts. 20k miles on the car and its done this since day one. I hope we get a Tremec replacement!!!!
Rev up your CVT!!
CVT:🔥🔥
Lol CVT left the chat 😂
There are a lot of aftermarket companies that have found solutions for the MT-82 transmissions. Mainly it's the shifting assembly.
Buy a GT350 manual, it has a Tremec. (If you can find one at MSRP - LOL)
All GT350’s come in a manual but you are right, damn things never brake.
Thats the only mustang ill ever buy nowadays. I dont even like gt500 anymore cuz they got rid of the manual. Id rather have the new gt350 manual or a 2013 gt500 manual.
Even then you need to be careful if you get one, the "gen 1" voodoo motors seem to fail with dumb problems too often. Supposedly the new ones with the "gen 2" voodoo motors are better.
You can get them well below msrp...
My old '67 E-type 2+2 had a Borg-Warner 3-speed auto. That boy was bullet-proof, Scotty!
My neighbor, Arthur Tweedale, an old British race driver who won Sebring's 12 hour race against factory machines in his Lola, this man was our neighborhood hero, Scotty. His retirement from "service manager" for Jaguar in Alexandria, gave us kids much inspiration for muscle cars, sports cars, you name it.
He drove a soft springed Caddie after his racing days! But I watched him bury the tach on his Alfa "Speciale."
I'm sure you have youth down there gravitating to you, looking to you, as we do today.
For us, we did lawn work for Arthur's help to check out cars before we bought them, and repaired them when needed out of the goodness of heart. I see the same in you.
I saw the man cut two totaled MGB's in half, seamlessly weld the good halves together. No puppy trucking out of that boy. Straight as an arrow! :^)

Liking the new intro!
thanks!
its funny because getrag used to be an amazing transmission company. they were responsible for the v160 in the mk4 supra.
I had a friend who blew out the 10 spd auto on his Mustang a last year, and now this makes me worried about my 6 spd Mustang
When my 6 spd fails, I'm gettin a Tremec swap. Stg 2 Roush superchager can come later.
Lol get a C8
You should be fine, the 6 speeds are good if you take care of them. The 10 speeds have issues. To many gears too close to each other. They even have a special fluid (ULV) that has a skull and bones mark on it. Only trans fluid I have seen that on it. Its because the gears are so close to each other a special thin fluid was made for the trans. If I have that 10 speed I would service the trans every 30-50k.
@@noahmcclure2515 maybe later in life. Its a pretty sick/awesome car, but probably too fast for me. My driveway and garage is just full with other cars including what my wife has anyways.
FBI that’s crazy
I used to be able to pop a T5 out under jack stands in about 30 minutes and roll it off my chest when I was younger while racing fox body's. Great 5 speeds rock solid. Cable clutch easy. replacement after a month of speed shifting .why aren't they still using these simple 5 speeds? Funnest cars I ever had besides shifting motorcycles
Notification gang 🤙🏽🤙🏽 quick question Scotty , I bought a 2005 lexus es330, 103,000 miles for $3600. Was it a good deal?
hello and yes
@@scottykilmer HELLO! you are the best 🤠
Hell yeah
Bloody oath! Nicely done.
If well maintained, that's a screaming deal
interesting... I have a 6spd 2016 and had the clutch and drive shaft replaced "under warranty" with only 30k miles on the car... this makes sense, this will be the last new car I ever buy... sticking with older cars I can buy cash. life was simple when I didn't have car payments...
Let me guess ... Its started when they started to push EcoBoost right ?
He is talking about transmission, not engine. The lawsuit goes back to 2010, as per the mention in this video.
Hi, @Scotty Kilmer ! Greetings from Ukraine! :-)
I got 2002 Acura RSX Base model (automatic) with 160k mostly freeway miles.
Transmission fluid most likely was never changed, so I’m thinking to charge it (not a hardcore flash).
If with this new fluid
transmission begins to slip,
can I just remove freshly added fluid and put back the old fluid
to fix transmission slippage?
Thank you a lot!
And this is why I would buy a 10 speed auto Mustang
Really? But they can't even make a reliable standard transmission 🙉
@@mrgarrison3516 they dont make them, its made in china
Don't, the 10 spd is even worse. Several members in the local Mustang meet I'm in already had their 10 spd blown out.
@@EconomicsMate1
Really! Ford transmissions are made in China?
So Ford is ruining it's brand💩
@Arthur Wall for real, they have issues. And good luck supercharging those. That is what the guys here in Texas did, and their 10 spd wasn't having any of it.
I'll probably swap my factory 6 spd for a tremec soon after the stg 1 supercharger blows it out. Stg 2 can wait.
I have a 2016 GT with an MT82. I don't race it but I drive spiritedly and it works fine. I think the issue is the shifter needs to be more solidly mounted with a Blowfish bracket or an MGW shifter.
Keep rocking Scotty! Love all of your videos with the face-to-face objective honesty! You got me into my new 2020 Toyota 4Runner :)
The ONLY reason I sold my coyote mustang was because of the transmission. I adored the coyote and interior as well as aftermarkets support. Got so sick of RPM lockout and sold it. Will never be buying another mustang with an MT-82 again.
Crap. I got a 2011 Mustang, with 103K on it already. So far so good though.
I have an MT82 trans in my 14 GT. It’s been fine so far. 55k miles. It is very loud and jerky however
Very important information 👍🏼
I own a 2013 GT with the mt82 and its been good even with 54k miles. I wanted a manual GT and the mt82 is the only option and I couldn't afford a gt500
After all these videos i just realized its says im the description:
“Things used: 1. Common Sense” HAHHAHAHAHAHAHA
I agree, some stock GT’s have some of the worst transmission I’ve driven, 2015-17 are particularly bad, even at 25k miles in the odometer the transmission may feel like its been through 75kmiles
According to Scotty, the only car we should buy is a Celica.
Make sure it’s a 1994
@@lancsroddl3131 sure thing
I know how to drive manual transmission! However if i am going to buy a new car I'd pick the automatic because it's tricky and tiring when you go uphill traffic, hill start assist is a big help
Scotty when are you going to make a vid about old Benzes those things run forever!!!
@@172-e5s They are the stuff of legends!!
He's talked about them before. He says they are tanks, but they are terribly slow with the smaller motors lol.
My favorite was my w123 230e. Bullet proof
My GE 8L90 auto transmission is flawless. I did have gm flush is with the new mobil 1 lv hp atf which is now required since the original fluid can absorb moisture. This transmission is a replica of the ZF with some changes. Bullet proof and shifts like a dct at wide open throttle.
Evening Scotty
I have an automatic 2016, but I did share this to my Facebook. Thanks for the heads-up, Scotty!
Just bought a 2020 Mustang on Monday. 10 Speed Auto and I ain’t ashamed one bit. Now Im laughing at the haters😂
Congrats! Same here, been saying get the damn 10 speed auto!! It’s reliable! And faster than the clunky manuals. Can’t our shift an auto..
Hey!-----Those older ford Foci with the regular torque converter automatics were pretty good. My 2007 with 115,000 is still going strong. The worst thing about them is the sticking heater/ac controls.
Damn ford, right after I bought 40 more shares. Well it’s only the standard version tho, so I’ll buy more 😂
Ford still has some room to go up. You'll make money. Fords a hold
why would you buy ford shares?
jeverett72 on the contrary, I bought a shitload of ford stocks when it bottom out at around $4. And now it’s at $6 so I already have massive gains while it’s still rising. My work is done 😎
David Kruse ford will never go out of business and shares are cheap as hell before they plateau at $10 a share
Damn right! I’ve made some decent returns off ford shares. my only regret is not buying more shares while it was still a bit lower!
I had several mustangs over the years starting with a 1999 Anniversary Edition, i love them maintenance is cheap and they turn heads once you trick em out 😍
And here I was looking into getting a coyote 🥺
Just call up bowler transmissions and getcha a t56 swap goin
admiral_peck 7 went ahead and got one anyway 🤟
I just got a 08 California special with 140,000 miles on it for my first car. Shes amazing. V8 life...
I lost an Mt82 out of my 2012 GT in 8000 miles. I said it was a failed input shaft bearing. It was. Repaired under warranty. GT Mustangs were 75% manual at that time. I have a 2014 with a bulletproof 6r80 now....
Supra > Mustang! I know it’s a BMW, but it just looks great.
5:40 I had an oldsmobile that had this problem and the check engine light was on the entire time I owned it because of it. It sounded like a broken vacuum cleaner under the hood so I just pulled the fuse. But to pass emissions it cost $600 to fix the stupid thing. Another brilliant GM idea.
I’ll stick with my 71 mustang
People are always putting down 1971-1973 Mustangs
The Mastodon model
Scotty...thanks for the info about the Ford Mustang transmissions. I have a 2014 Mustang GT with the 6 speed manual. No transmission issues yet but there aren't many miles on the car. I'm definitely looking into the class action lawsuit.
Damn, I have a Mustang but fortunately not of these years. Yes, I know, a Chevy guy have a Mustang LOL
😲😲😲 dude how do you sleep at night. 😉😉😉✌✌
I’ve had a couple of these Ford trans and many miles, no issues. It’s only the 2018+ cars, the shift forks are breaking. Other than that the trans is good.
Scotty, you can confess... this is why you gave up on Mustang in your video intros 😂🐴🐴😂
His junkyard meme may change from a Chevy dealership to a Ford dealership 💩
I have a 2006 Focus ZX5 since new with a 2.0, auto with 170k miles...runs like a top. The most reliable little car I've ever owned..
Rev up your engines
I currently own a 2011 manual 5.0 with 113k miles. Bought it used at 52k miles. I’ve never had a problem with the transmission. But I also haven’t taken it to the track 🤷♂️
Fun fact: slap a toyota badge and a celica badge and your car will magically become reliable!
It has a lot to do with the crappy bushings used. If the mt82 is used with polyurethane bushings the driver won't get high rpm lockout or grinding
Ford can't even get a lug nut right(they swell). Imagine the rest of the car.
being the best selling sports car in the entire world I would guess many people are imagining it right now
I had a 2013 with slush-tronic auto trans. 3 months after warranty expired the transmission in would no longer shift gears when in manual mode. Then the airbags recall and after 6months of dealership Never having replacement parts I got rid of it. Then a few weeks ago I get a recall on my 2015 fiesta St about the door latches failing causing doors to no longer latch and possibly open whilst driving. No more Merican cars for me!
i have a 2018 manual GT. I LOVE my manual transmission. never had an issue with it. shifts smooth and i dont even use the clutch to change gears most of the time its that smooth. i only have 21000 miles on the car but im hoping i got one of the good ones. if i have an issue ill just slap a tremec in it and call it a day.
I like old fords not so much the newer ones. I just got my first truck and its a 89 f-150. Also its a stick and im in love with it already. Also its got the inline 6.
This is why, I would stick to the 2006 or 2008 Ford Mustang GT or GT/CS coupe or convertible with the 4.6 L V8 engine with 300 horsepower and the five-speed automatic or manual transmission. It is the best, modern Mustang around the world.
🤦♂️. You do know that 3V 4.6 has it's own problems right? Not to mention it doesn't hold a candle to the new 5.0 in terms of strength, reliability and power.
Getrag itself is not bad. Maybe Ford wanted to cut expenses. And Getrag said sure „We can make it even cheaper“. Here in europe we have many Getrag transmissions in Audis, VWs etc. ... They hold up just fine and don‘t break down.
And this is why Ford stuck with the Tremec 6 speeds in the newer Shelby GT350 & GT500 (minus the auto only 2020 GT500)
She took her (Shelby?)Mustang to the track, trashed the transmission 3 times and got warranty? Wow. In my 2011 Shelby owners manual there’s a section called “if your warranty isn’t important to you” in which it’s explained that track related failures are not covered by warranty. I never had any trouble with the transmission, sold it in 2018 maybe the new owner not so fortunate.
I have had 2 Mustang customers with manual transmission problems. 2. But yes, those Chinese manual transmissions were weak and it took a month or more to get a replacement.
I would consider buying a nice used manual Mustang of this time period and install a good aftermarket manual transmission. I have always been a Ford Fan, but sometimes they forget the hard lessons they have learned when times were bad and resume making junk. I have a 2014 Ford Focus ST - with a 5 speed manual - and it's a great car. The automatic transmission equipped Focuses were a disaster.
How do we join the lawsuit?
While it is true, tremec is a better manual transmission, the MT-82 is not a terrible trans. I am a Ford technician and happen to also be a Mustang guy. I have had one (1) Mt82 that had a bad synchro. All other manual transmission issues have been operator error. I would be after ford about IMRC and oil consumption issues before the transmission.
This is good news for my 2012 Mustang with a BAD Transmission. 5th gear sycronizer went out twice
I have 2 vehicles with Getrag transmissions. the difference from the Mustang transmission? one was made in Germany(F40) the other in Italy(F23). The one from F23 is going on 215k miles without issue and likely since I am not the original owner never had the gear oil changed. the newer F40 only has 65k miles on it so we'll see how that goes..
