5th gear synchro design is poor so those wear out, 2nd gear takes a beating, and the above mentioned plastic bearing that supposedly cannot be replaced. The shift forks and pads are also weak points and typically upgraded with a rebuild.
Aeroforce is just a gauge that gets data from the OBD port, it's not a tuning device.How to check for a tune? No idea. I'd say if it runs good and no Check Engine light it doesn't matter. It's out of warranty anyway
I hope this link work properly. Craig from Mustang Motorsport here in Melbourne and just down the road from me was approved to get a GTD. The link is a reel of him getting delivery in the USA. Craig was the owner of Mustang Motorsport for as many...
