5 Things You Probably Didn't Know About Your S550 Mustang 

Another thing people don't know: if your FOB batteries die you can remove the base of the cup holder and place the key in the slot under it with the mustang emblem rearward. The car will start and run normally till you can get batteries :)

When I'm washing my car I probably lock and unlock my car 30 times on each side! Now that I think about maybe I shouldn't wash my car with the keys in my pocket..!

Cool video! I didn't know the window trick, that'll come in handy, thanks!

Very cool video. I'm picking mine up next weekend and this is good stuff to know in advance. Thanks.

Window thing really helps when your doors get broken on both side (happened to my 350z by vandalism). some guy must have pulled the door handle really hard to open the door, he broke both side door handle internal mechanism. I used this to open the door instead of climbing through the rear hatch every time I had to get into the car until I got the new handles to fix the problem.

1:16 . sunglass holder yeah right 😂😂 more like blunt holder thanks bro

Finally a video that actually shows me stuff that I didn't know!

I’ve had mine for over a year, and didn’t know about any of these features lol thanks for the video.

you're awesome . keep uploading videos like this 👍🏼

Just got my 2015 gt today and stumbled on this vid. great job, thanks!

Some cool features. Great vid

sweet vid, learned about the window trick from a co worker 2 minutes before watching this lol we both have s550s

Great video man!!!

Looks like you need a feature that parks the car for you.

Thanks for the video! Knew these and within the last few days (have owned my 2015 for 1 year) found out about entering AND starting the car if the FAB dies👍

Didn't know about the windows trick. Pretty cool. In the base gt, they can press the traction control button twice to turn everything off, in lieu of pressing and holding it like in the premium. Nice video! Keep them coming!

I didnt know about the window feature, the gas station feature and the advance trac off feature. Specially the window feature comes in handy. Awesome video mate.

Wish they included a Digital Speedometer option choice, in the center display.

Awesome. I knew all of them except the advanced track mode and gas stations! Thanks!!!!

Thanks for the info I only new about 2 of the 5 the glasses holder and the gas station thing on navigation.

The point of the touchless windows is to air out your car in the summer before you get off work without having to go outside and do it while still in the building

Great video thanks!

also if you remove the rubber on the cup holder you can place your key there if its running low on battery so that the car can turn on.

I put my gun in that storage inside the glove box... Works great to hide ma glock :)

i didnt know about the advanceTrac feature or the windows for that matter, so this is a pretty neat vid, thx!

Kool vid. I had no clue about the glove box feature and the nav low fuel thing. I have a 2015 just like urs but black. Traded my 2012 gt.

Thanks for the tip on advance trac! Might pick up a tick at the strip?

Cool stuff, thanks!

Holding the traction control tab up sometimes works but doesn't work more times then does. Are you hitting ok for traction control prior to advance Trac option???

Amazing tips!!!

Nice trick with the window, I didn't believe it so I had to go try it. It sure worked thanks dude.

What about the security feature when you reach through the window (windows down and alarm on) the alarm will go off ?

Great video bro didn't have a clue of any of these features

Everything on this video I had no idea was in my car lol, thanks. Had it for almost a year.

*walking out to my car now to check out the sunglass holder, window trick, and glove box thanks for posting!

Do you know if in the future v6 base model owners will be able to install the gps ?

Is this the same on the EU / UK version? Eg; sunglasses comparent, section for the manual and the window opening key press?

didnt know the window trick! does adv trac work on v6? if i start my car the exhaust will wake neighbors right now

Thanks for the video. Good pointers for my girls mustang.

The purpose of the window feature is for people in hotter areas to ventilate the car and cool it down a bit so by the time they get there it doesnt have that hot stuffy feeling when you get inside, some cars do this automatically

I have the 2015 mustang eco boost and I was wondering if you knew a way that I could get the full screen navigation like you have in the video with the SYNC Microsoft?... I know they have discontinued with the SYNC .. hope you can help me and I have the premium

Had my 17 GT for 2 days. Didn't know about that window opening trick. Very cool!

Freakin awesome! Thanks

it doesnt say advancetrack off in my car it says esc off is it the same thing?

definitely didn't know about the windows down one, that'll really come in handy since im in florida!

Hey cool video! Thanks

Is there a heads up display on this car?

I've had my car for about 8 months and you just blew my effin mind man, I've always complained about not having somewhere to put my glasses, and I always thought it was funny they did keyless entry but it wouldn't lock without using the key. I suppose ford does know what they're doing

Is there any engine difference between s550 and gt 5.0??

Awww no wonder I couldn’t find the manual lol good video

I love the fact that all you are showing in this video is in your manual... which most people including yourself is still rapped in plastic.

Didn't know about the window. On my 13 GT I have to press the brake while holding the traction control button to turn Advance Track off. Did you also hold the brake? On my 13 there are 4 settings to the traction control button. 1) Everything on (default when started). 2) Traction control off with single touch. 3) Sport Mode with double touch. 4) Every thing off. Press and hold the brake and button for 5 seconds. Great video, thanks!

Yep didnt know any of those thanks!

Do u only cover mustangs or every muscle cars ?

Didn't know about the window roll-down feature. Thx

This has always been my dream car, I live in NI UK we've only just got mustangs in the market. Maybe one day

I knew all of these. The windows down with a 2x hold on the unlock is pretty common on a lot of cars (exact techniques vary). Try it on your BMW/Honda/Toyota, it might work also. How about - there is a pen holder under the arm rest.

3:01 i don't know if it's the same as in 2011 to 2014 models but if you hit the brakes hard and press traction control twice it puts you in "Sport mode" which basically gives you better traction control and slightly tighten the steering wheel, i did test it on an empty road with traction on, off then AdanceTrac off and sport mode i found out the best is sports mode if you're doing race from a dig or on second gear because even if tyers are spinning the RPM slowly goes up and you tyers will stop spinning, i did few times but sadly i didn't have any device that can count 1/4 mile and since my country does not have any drag strip i could not really tell But i feel more confident in sport mode that the car won't spin into the nearest crowd

Hope to see you around I live in Baltimore, Md

Make a video on the Shaker sound system.

Excellent. I don't kow how you found all that, but thank you!

2002 BMW 530i. Not only do the windows open, but it also opens the sunroof lol. But great video.

The window trick is actually in a lot of different kinds of cars. Had a 2002 BMW 5 series that had it. New Honda's have it as well actually as long as the front two windows have the auto down feature.

Fed Hill Checking in!

What does that little yellow helmet symbol mean that was on your dash??? And how do you activate whatever that is?? Good video btw

If you have a base model S550 while your Stang is in park press/hold the Ok button (Left side of the steering wheel) and the traction control button at the same time (approximately 2 to 5 seconds). The Advance Trac will then turn off.

Great video, thanks. What you didn't mention is that, if you push up or down on the turn signal lever just a touch, the corresponding signal will flash three times--perfect for lane changes.

In Texas, airing out the car is a big deal. Didn't know I could roll down windows in advance...thanks. I am very pleased that Ford put the sunglasses compartment there...keeps sunglasses from getting hot. In my other vehicles, sunglasses are stored in a ceiling compartment and therefore are extremely hot if car has been in sun for a while.

Distance opening and window up/down + the start of motor from outside the car is not available in Switzerland on my model 2017 + also the 3 front light led's are also disconnected and right /left turn signal is not sequential like in the States or AUDI/BMW in Europe ...-:(

The place for the sunglasses... you can put your weed in there!

who parked your car????? LOL Never park next to a car with beat up paint. They don't give a fuck about their car......they sure as hell won't care about yours.

The sunglass compartment great spot to store your stash 🤣

First thing when I ordered my pony was downloading it's manual and study it. :)

The manual box always falls open on mine when I open the glove box

I am afraid that I would forget my sunglasses in that slot. I bought a 2018 GT Premium in July and had no idea about the hidden holder. Until now.

One thing you should of done is the Sport Mode....I had problems launching my car for like the first year of owning it until I saw a video of how to put sport mode on. Click traction control twice and bam Sport Mode lets you drive the car hard and if it gets to lose itll save your ass. The first one i didnt know dont think i will use it but kinda cool and the sun glass thingy I use for change but never thought of putting my sun glasses in there probably will start.

Didn't know abt the nav gas station cool thanks

Also: Trunk unlock button hidden in rear (under the GT or Pony).

I've had my car for a week and had no idea about the sunglasses compartment lol. Been putting mine in the cup holders and complaining about how Ford chose not to put any place in the car to store them :facepalm:. Thanks for sharing, great vid!

The window feature always bothered me. I would think it would be more practical to be able to roll the windows UP remotely, in the event it starts raining, or you forget to close them or something.

the only thing I have a problem with is pretty much the shifter, I am so used to the rough nature of the Tremec TR6060. So I sort of.. "nipped" 2nd and 4th. and felt like I was going to rip out the shifter from the console lol. Time for that Barton shifter!! lol but nice stuff as usual sir.

I miss the windows down feature... my G35 had that. super useful in the hot ass Arizona desert.

Getting ready to buy a mustang Gt. Don’t all premium gt’s come with oil and vacuum gauge. Curios as to why some have it and others don’t??

The window thing works on a lot of cars actually, especially higher trim models. So does the traction control thing (if you have a traction control button - hit it once it turns it off, hold it then it usually turns it off 'more). The thing on the door, how have people been locking it if they don't know what the ridges are for? Wouldn't you think it's kind of stupid to be able to unlock it without the key, but still have to use it to lock it? lol..

where do i get this audio sytem that comes with the 2015 premium package

Man... I bought a mustang really hoping other owners wouldn't be this oblivious to obvious things.

I'm about to go out to the parking lot, and probably find my owner's manual tucked in that cubbie. After I bought one on Ebay and put it into the glove compartment. Oh well, I'll have 2 now.

Do only the premiums get those chrome toggle switches. I don't have the base GT and mines are (cheap looking) buttons lol

There's way more space in the door sill than the old ones; you can fit a whole umbrella in there now

Please tell me how to use the GPS on my premium lol

Love the window thing! Can you put them back up though?

Just got my 16 GT with PP in race red

oh and one you didnt know about, if you push the button twice it says advacetrack in sport mode, that is once for traction control off , twice for advance track sport mode and hold down for advance trac off even the owners manual does not tell yu about hitting the button twice but try it it works I have a 2015

I thought the sunglasses drawer was for the airbags lol

The tree like at the track. Mustangs come with it in the dash. Records 0-60 and quarter mile times.

The first one has been on basically every car that can even remotely be considered a "luxury" car since like 2002. It really depresses me that no one ever knows about it /:

hey bro nice stang just 1 question? how bout our Ravens...….

Should of added the Christmas tree feature. The coolest thing ever and it only works in track mode. Had my stand a week and just found out.

There's also a button under the lip of the trunk lid to open it. See a lot of folks surprised at this

1:18 most people don't know this but you could put your weed in there
