    2011 GTS Master Cylinder seal rebuild kit

    I'm having issues with my 2011 GT sponge like break pedal. This problem started when I made a ''hard abrupt stop'' at the lights. I've bench bled the master cylinder twice and flushed the break fluid system five times with a Motive Bleeder. Pressurizer the system to 15 psi while a helper...

    Slight Tapping Noise when cold

    Installed One 4oz bottle of ZDDP to the engine. The Tapping Lifter noise between 2 to 3K RPM did reduce quite a lot. I'm Converting to the 5W-30 Red Line engine oil in spring which has Ester, Zinc, Phosphorus, all the good stuff for an engine.

    Tire Size Question

    I was playing around the tire sizes and this is what I got to make the bigger tires to work. The comparison I did was with a 315 at the rear & 245 ,285 at front tires.

    Tire Size Question

    I bought this GTS in May of this year, the summer tires on the car are 20 ''tires /rims. Drove the car for 6 months with the 20'' tires until November. Installed the 19'' winter tires on and noticed a more responsive pull off and the transmission does not sound as if it's lagging changing gears...

    Tire Size Question

    Question ..Just trying to understand about the speedo will be out? Im not changing the 20'' Rim size, just the width of the tire. Why would it mess with the Speedo?

    Tire Size Question

    This is another post another site. I find the differences to be fairly subtle to be quite honest. Maybe a bit more compliant over rough surfaces, small pot holes, typical road construction type stuff. The backend seems a little more planted if really taking a sharp turn and aggressively using...

    Tire Size Question

    I already have one inch wheel spacers on all 4 hubs. I was assuming it would have worked.....and make the GTS look aggressive.

    Tire Size Question

    Hi I was wondering if a 335/35/20 tire fit on my existing rear rim 285/35/20 ? Would the rear 285/35/20 tire fit on the front rim 245/35/20 ? Thanks

    2011 GTS Vacuum line unplugged

    I'll look into it.. This whole issue with gas in oil and engine ticking all came about when the temperature dropped. I bought the car in May, and drove it during the summer months with no issues. As it got colder in October all heck broke loose. I'll wait until spring and see if the ticking...

    2011 GTS Vacuum line unplugged

    I think we narrowed it down to Low Engine Temperature, due to a faulty thermostat. The needle now stays at 194F while driving on the HWY. I also pulled the injectors then pressurized the system No injector leaks. I just ordered 2 bottles of......ZDDP Plus ZINC & PHOSPHORUS oil additive for the...

    2011 GTS ZF 6HP26 Transmission service @ 65k

    Just noticed ''engine oil'' coming from the bell housing. My plan is during winter remove the gearbox and replace the Rear Main Seal. I was wondering if the diff has to be removed in order to pull the gearbox? I noticed in this picture the diff was removed. Or does the drive shaft just unbolt...
