I also have a 2015 Ford Mustang V6 with the exact same problem. I haven't fixed it because it usually works fine, but if I sit idling at a dead stop in traffic it gets a little dicy. Feels like the brake booster for sure! Once I get moving and it builds a little air pressure it works fine again. Will replace the booster one of these days, or trade the car in. 100,000 miles with no other problems, and I love the V6.

That’s where Scotty said it didn’t appear to be a leaky HCU…no codes , but that doesn’t always mean it’s not a leaky dump valve. I would suspects a leaky dump valve if someone recently had the brake system opened up and bleed the brakes to get crud into the HCU.

Really good point Scotty made in this video, is that temperature and humidity levels do affect the mechanical parts of vehicles. Here in Montreal we go from 30 to -30 celsius maximums from summer to winter. I do definitely notice that in the winter I spend more on gas and that the engine is more noisy on my car, especially within the first 20 minutes of start-up.

My mother had a situation after we had been out in my car, came home, had to move the cars around. My mom started her 83 Reliant, and when i looked up from my car she was across the street, up on the concrete wall, and had hit the home across the way slightly - this could have been driver error, but the mechanic also found where the brake booster had been leaking internally, and said that may have caused a runaway condition AND diminished braking - and she had a very short distance to react. I have been concerned that perhaps some of the accidents attributed to driver error on the elderly may actually be parts like this that may wear differently due to the cars no longer being driven daily, and perhaps sitting for a few days or a week at a time - had the car repaired, never had this happen again.

Interesting tidbit I found on youtube - I have a 99 Mustang six, and according to one youtube channel, you can push the trip meter (in the speedometer area) turn the key without starting the car (if I remember right) and the mileage display will show all sorts of data on the car, test the instrument panel bulbs, etc - I love this! On my old 87 Dodge Daytona, if you turned the key 5 times without starting it, the power loss light would flash a code - normally code 55 for all is well - which was 5 slow flashes, and 5 quick flashes - any other code shown could be looked up as to what it meant.

@GeorgeENorkus Год назад

Scotty, One thing I don't think you mentioned before. Dealers, (I think everyone of them), do want to find a problem so they can rip you off. They tell you they can hook up their fancy diagnostic machine to find the problem. The only bad thing is that they will not hook it up until the person agrees to pay them about $150.00 to do it. They try to convince the car owner that they have to get money back for buying the expensive diagnostics machine.

Hat a similar issue with my 2012 Ford Edge. Same reply from the dealership, they could not determine the fault. Could not change all the components on warranty... bleed the system... about 2 months later, after several trips there, it turned out it was the ABS system. They replaced that. It works perfectly fine since. Everyone online was pointing to the master cylinder, it was not in my case.

@tobygathergood4990 Год назад

Awesome! My initial diagnosis was correct. I've had to deal with any number of master cylinders and/or boosters that leak internally, even right off the shelf. The master brake cylinder for that old Maverick of yours was probably $15 - $20 to buy back in the day...now that's cheap. and funny.

@jimmieb1773 Год назад

Scotty, Just wanted to throw this out there. I have a 2012 F150 with a 3.5l Ecoboost. It has an electric vacuum brake booster on it because the Ecoboost doesn't produce enough vacuum for the brakes to operate correctly. I was told it's due to the twin turbos. The mustang may have similar issues.

@bobmcgehee1749 Год назад

@ctu5086 Год назад

NA V8 will have more than twice the useful life. Your probably better off modifying your own engine with strengthening and an aftermarket turbocharger and learning to do the maintenance yourself than most of the factory turbo cars from the manufacturers. The BMW turbo motors barely last 100K miles and almost all their cars have turbos now. The Ford V8 isn't as stout as the GM but the overhead cam sound is so much better than over head valvers

I've driven one, and they pull. Problem is, those four cylinders cannot take the beating that an 8 cylinder can take. As the old saying goes, "there's no replacement for displacement." Those 4 cylinders 10 years from now the 4 banger is going to be worn out because they have smaller parts which translates to shorter strokes, and tighter tolerances. I just don't see these engines holding up the way a V8 can. Especially with those Turbos. I'd ont care for those wonky 10 speed transmissions either. I much prefer an 6-8 speed.

@bradleygoode116 Год назад

looks like you could see brake pressure on the scan tool while braking, most mastercylinders are divided into two different sections so you have dual system, so if one fails half the brakes still work, so you could hold the brakes while viewing the readings each section to see if the pressure is going down while holding the pedal steady, this would verify the fluid in the master cylinder is bypassing the orings inside of it,

@komradkolonel Год назад

I remember on "The Golden Girls" Fords in St. Olaf were called "Fjords" One of Rose's neighbors owned a Fjord Fairlane. Maybe the Mustangs with the 3.7 didn't make the power of the turbo 2.3 they do seem to hold up better. Normally I would avoid a 3.5 or 3.7 that was front drive because of the water pump but in the rear drive cars Ford used a different water pump that was outside the engine so you didn't have to pull the whole thing to replace it.

@damonlocke9631 Год назад

Sorry. But, that's not correct. I have a 2016 F150, 3.5 Flexfuel. It has the internal water pump. Same thing for the Ecoboost 3.5 motors as well. Not one of Ford's better ideas.

@davidclemens1578 Год назад

Years ago I had a 71 Cuda with heavy duty suspension and brakes but it was not power brakes. While I was waiting to use the pump at the gas station I went from having brakes to the pedal going right to the floor. Upon examination there was absolutely no leaks in the system and it turns out that the master cylinder had gone bad letting fluid by the piston but not externally. So as you said, it could be the master cylinder is bad.

@mattphillips1910 Год назад

The reason the master in this car failed is because the engine has 50% of the cylinders it should have. If a Mustang has 4 cylinders, it really doesn't need brakes at all.

I have a Ford, a 2006 Focus 2.0 duratec with 127k miles, never really had any issues since I bought it for £550 in 2017 where it had around 90k miles. Just the usual tyres, just fronts, rears are still fine and I replaced the brakes all round. I did have one little problem where it kept stalling, no engine light or fault codes. I did the usual changed the spark plugs, checked the coils, cleaned the throttle body. It was still stalling and no better, something made me think.a sensor might be going bad but why no fault codes! Strange thing was it ran fine at start up and idle, only cut out after it warmed up and went for a short drive. First one I checked was unplugging the electrical connection to the EGR valve, it ran spot on, no stalling! Guess what, it threw a fault code!! I left it like that for over a year, fully intending to replace the EGR valve but apart from the engine code light it was running spot on. When I did replace it, I figured out the EGR valve would stick in the open position when activated, hence the stalling. So Fords don't always show a code when a sensor or module is going bad!

It was scary because I had to idle through crowds of people to carry out my job at the show and then the brakes sunk and I'm in a crowd of thousands of people! Driving it was an "experience"! That one had the Mitsubishi engine I believe. On a side note, at the same event this year I saw a Ford Bronco with a Rousch motor. I'm guessing that's an improvement? I wouldn't know since I drive a 98 Camry nearing 300K miles and its still runs great!
