Last time I had a car with the clutch not shifting until fully depressed, it was the master slave cylinder going out. It finally got to the point that even all the way in, it barely would allow a shift into a gear. I think it should be more like the last third out, or in when depressed in-which it engages or disengages. The GT I tested out seemed to grab around a the last third letting it engage. Check for fluid level.

new mustang owners please consider a 3M clear bra. having the clear bra installed will save the paint on the car's front end from rocks that will cause the fragile water based paint to chip. i reccommend the extended kit with the door cups (will protect your door cups from scratches caused by nails or rings). probably one of the best initial mods, please consider.

Clear bra - interesting! Oh, on your car. Not too sure I'd go for that.

But you'd go for a clear one of "the other kind?"  Oh my, m1miata, I wouldn't expect to hear that from a woman! 
Actually, the clear bra is a pretty good idea. The only thing that keeps me from getting one is that line that you'd see at the edges. It would drive me nuts.

line on the edge.

what makes that line worse is that it gets more visable over time as dirt collects there. Plus if you wax the car its a total mess at the edge.

Hate bras on cars, almost as much as carpet on the dashboards.
And last time I checked, I was not a woman. 
And yes, the clear bra, may be a better alternative to the ugly black ones.
OK, who votes for the clear vinyl covers on the seats? My aunt use to have those on her Galaxie 500. 
Maybe some curb feelers, so those fake spinners won't touch the curb?

Well today I have taken my 06 Mustang GT Manual Premium Package in to the shop AGAIN!! I bought it June 10,2006 and it only has 5,000 miles on it. I took it in this time because it kept telling me to check my fuel cap and wouldn't go away. I was also having the same problem with the noise when I was turning worse in reverse and in first gear. They informed me that they have fixed the fuel cap problem and that if I come pick it up to bring it back next week and they are going to put a new clutch package in it. I am a little annoyed because I also had to have a new alternator put in not even a month and a half after my purchase when it had less than 1000 miles on it. I hope that this doesn't continue I am beginning to believe the old FORD stories I hear.

The clear bra is like plastic slipcovers on furniture.

It's not that bad guys.
And my bad, Loren. I've never known Loren (alternately Lauren) to be a "male" name. Innocent mistake on my part and the correction is duly noted.

My 05 premium convertible is now going back for the second time in a month for a repair of the headliner. It pulls loose from the hard section on the front edge.
Has anyone seen this successfully diagnosed and corrected?
