Any mustang owners with good or bad experience comment down below. I can not wait until the new one, I hope they do not mess it up. Instagram: navsgarage_ Tik Tok: navsgarage
The issue with the MT-82 generally lies in the shift linkage (not being especially robust/rigid) and the underlying bracketing. The MT-82 has the shifter mounted directly to the chassis via the transmission tunnel. Under hard acceleration/rpm and load, the engine and transmission twist under the torque of the engine (this is normal to an extent on every car), however most manual transmissions (for high powered cars) mount the shifter and linkage directly to the transmission, not the chassis like the mustang's design. This means the transmission moves and twists, but the shifter and linkage doesn’t move with it since it’s bolted to the chassis directly. This leads to an inconsistent shifter feel, grinding, high rpm lockout, and all those other things you hear about in the forums. Add the scenario of driver at a drag strip trying to shift aggressively and quickly to a shifter design that doesn’t like to be hurried and you have a recipe for complaints and issues. It's a shame Ford dont put the Tremec into the standard GT's
Yah thanks for the info. I’ve heard since that the short throw kits fix the issue the cars end up being much better. Also I’ve heard they the clutch doesn’t pair nice with the trans
@@NavsGarage yea it sucks. I was lookin to trade in my 2015 Brz, and get a newer GT as a daily driver. But im not keen to spend an extra $10-15k just to get the Mach1 for the tremec. damn shame, since the Stang is a nice sportscar, and still offered with the 6speed.
@@roberto7288 i havnt looked at the costs. Depends if you're willing to spend the extra money to get the mach1 or not. At least with the mach, you get an exclusive mustang that has higher resale value than a GT with swapped t56. its up to you.
Thanks for the info regarding your experience. I'm tossing up whether to go with the manual on a low milage 22 GT. I'm in Australia & upgrade parts aren't cheap in this part of the world. Cheers😊
That’s why you get a gt350, gt 500, or a Mach 1. My 2016 Camaro was a nightmare when it came to all the electrical issues. Since getting the Mach 1 I will never go back to Chevy.
I have a 3rd gen 2019 mustang GT with the mt82 manual transmission my transmission has been great however I don't race my car nor do I beat on it I do enjoy spirited driving every now and again
You will never know until you test it at full throttle and fast shifts..lm sure most MT 82'S out there will shift great, while lets say, conservative driving.
I went from a gen 1 mt82 to 6r80. 7700rpm and mt82 don't mix. I Hated the mt82. So many races where I was winning the 2-3 or 3-4 Shift issues. Now the 6r80 shifts every time 7700 rpm. Faster then I could ever do.
You should ne able to drive it pretty hard, it is a sportscar.I have had mustangs for quite a long time and i won't buy an mt82 eventhough i like shifting. I will get a 10r80 auto more than likely but would prefer to shift, just don't want the headache!.
it is not the GT it is your lousy driving & shifting. I get it on and occasionally race. AMG backroads and blew away the BM. I let the pcu kick me out of redline though and 10 miles out a trail of oil appear in the rearview mirror and up a grade I pulled over. cracked the block. bought a 2019 Aluminator 5.0L engine 12:1 n/a compression mounted up to Calimer mt-82d stage 2 mgw spec 2 shifter mantic 9000 clutch DSS drive live g force half shafts boobma trans mount steeda differential brace fhp differential roush cold induction mangnaflow competention three inch exhaust vmp tune dw- 400 fuel pump cold case radiator mishimoto radiator reserve fhp front strut brace bmr rear strut brace bmr and steeda completed suspension mods pedders coil overs w external canisters bmr k brace & stop the hop rear braces & sway bars autosport roll cage stiffings up the chassis sve rims 10ft 11r MCH pilot sport Calimer transmission mt-82d s-2 is cyro treated & micro polish with carbon synchro rings bullet forks & forged gears with the Mantic 9000 she rock solid. Turn off the trac control watch engine masters. Still it is the driver that needs to know how to downshift or upshift properly.
So you modded your trans. Well yah you beefed it up. It wasn’t my “bad driving” it’s a well known common mustang issue that they used the wrong clutch on a mediocre transmission.
@@rynev3392 Basically Ford claims I was speed shifting and it's normal for the tranny to grind. However, my car only had 3k miles so I went back to the dealer and demanded they fix the car or let me exchange it for an automatic. I will take delivery of a blk 2024 gt as soon as it arrives at the dealer in a few days. Here's my yelp review. Update: I've been in contact with Ron Jones and I hope to update the review and increase the rating. Below is a video of it happening to me again. ru-vid.com10aXw… I recently was the proud purchaser of a 2023 Ford Mustang GT. In the process, I had paid a VERY LARGE amount of money as a down payment. However, after the break in period of my new car, I was alarmed that when driving a bit more spirited, it will unexpectedly lock me out of third gear or grind real bad. It will do this going from 2nd to 3rd gear at 4-5k RPM while getting on the freeway. I took the car in for it's first oil change and described how the issue manifests itself. At first the techs could not duplicate it, because they tried at 7K RPM. I drove to the dealership and showed them a single time at about 4.5K RPM. They said they'd investigate further but they then waited a few days to tell me it's normal for your car to not go into gear and accused me of "speed shifting" Because Ford does not acknowledge the MT-82 issues, the dealer then charged me $255.00 dollars. Anyone can google search"MT-82 problems", and when doing so the first result that comes up illustrates my problem from a company called CJ Pony Parts. They could have at least washed my car but returned it filthy The impression I'm left with is that it is a very bad place to buy/service a car. Good Luck on yours! Cheers
Does this 6 speed manual transmission use a DUAL CLUTCH TRANSMISSION( DCT) , Or Single clutch only ? Is it like Single clutch but one input shaft and 2 output shaft (Transmission box) ?
Mach 1 is too expensive, can't justify the Shelby and Tremec upgrades, proceeds to advise spending thousands on upgrades. If you start with a turd, and roll it in glitter, it will be a turd covered in glitter. Buy the better platform from the start!
@@NavsGarage Maybe, but you still won't have the Tremec, still wont have the front and rear GT350 subframe, The GT500 rear suspension geometry and all of the the uprated cooling. Most of all the resale. You would make back the difference when you move the car on- no one want's to pay a premium for a clapped out garage modded GT. I get mods- trust me, done it to death personally. But what's the point of spending tens of thousands on mods that loose you money instead of spending the tens of thousands on the better car that holds it value?
You knowing “plenty” of owners isn’t the larger population. Mustang mt82 has issues. Look at the lawsuit. There’s a shop that literally runs on rebuilding them. Now those 800whp cars might be stock but things like short throw a different clutch and other things can fix the problems.
People are in love with the sleek lines, redesigned interior, the tough image, and thrill of a V8 powered rocket. Subsequently, they make all sorts of excuses for having been duped into buying an inferior product. These cars are lemons!!!!There’s a class action lawsuit currently pending regarding the 10R80 transmission, as well as a lawsuit where Ford has already been held responsible for the MT82 issues as well!! People are unloading these cars for substantially less than retail on the secondary market. Anyone considering purchasing one of these cars should look elsewhere!
The Getrag MT 82 sucks big time. Ruins the whole car. Impossible to shift first to second at high rpm then likes to grind going into second. Just sucks, did l say it sucks.
