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...
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.
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.
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...

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...
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...
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...
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...
