Wow... you just saved me a ton of money. These jerks told me my windshield needed to be reinstalled (supposedly, that is why my cabin filled with water after a rainstorm). I simply followed your tip on cleaning the drain and problem solved! Thanks. 2005 GT. Love these ponys.
I had my passenger side fill up with a few inches of water too, wasn't fun lol. I wish I knew about the drain plugs before hand
Another home run video by "The S197 Whisperer" - You 'Da Man!
i just got an 05 and the color changing gauges surprised me a lot since its an 05! lol
I got an 07 and it let's you set the color to anything you want.. RGB..
I have a 07 v6 premium. For some reason I can’t change the color
Read the manual
Nice! Finding out that my back seats pull down in my Mustang is like when I discovered I had an accessible attic above my apartment...lol
Holy, these tips are amazing, I recently got a 2006 Pony package and I've been loving it. These tips are really helpful. Thank you!!
I too have a Pony Packaged 06 , too many tips and tricks the manual does not tell you like adjusting the factory alarm system ??? Another one is the Shaker 500 or 1000 system hacks . Never new for 14 years you can set it to read out the music and stations you are listening too in digital read out . It was off since it left the factory 😳 !! Thank You for sharing!
Thank you so much for these tips. I had no idea my 2006 V6 Mustang had two drain plugs. I'm the only owner and have never cleaned them since I bought it brand new. Thank you so much. Keep these tips coming. Love them. You got a new subscriber. 😊
Not me running out to my 2009 mustang gt premium to change my dashboard color! hahaha! Thank you for this!
After owning my car for 16 there are things I didn't know about it, this is cool
Yeah, i had no idea about those drain plugs for the cabin air filter. had a change my cabin air filter a few times, and lots of leaking inside. Glad it is now cleaned. The window trick was also amazing.
Thanks for the tips!
Wow thanks for the tips much appreciated 🙏 I hope you all are doing well 💪
You guys are a true Mustang family! The Martins are are all well! Thx!

Great video - thanks for the tip
Thank you for the information. Just bought my first mustang 07 this weekend..
super helpful, thanks.
I knew all but he color change, way cool!! thanks for sharing
WHOA!!! Thanks so much!!! So cool.
Great video full of information.
Best Wishes! M.H
That last tip absolutely blew my mind, had no idea my car could do that, and I always struggled to see the dashboard with the color it was set on!!
You can adjust the various colours too. There are 125 different colour combinations. You just play around with the red (R), green (G) and blue (B) settings for each main colour.
Yes! Mine was set to the orange which wasn't great. I prefer the blue all day.
Great Video 👍🏽
great tips!
Excellent video and great tips! I’ve had a 08 Mustang for years and never knew this stuff. I’ll be taking better care of it from now on! Thank you!!
Holy cow! I have a 2007 GT premium California Special and didn't know 4 of the 5 tips. The back seat folds down??? Wow had no idea. Thank you!
Very Good!
Helped mine on window reset. Thanks
very cool! I have a 2008 bullitt to race specs 850 at rear wheels and didnt know that about changing the color on dash.... I knew how to change the color on the floor area but not dash!!!! SO THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!
Thanks man your awesome
i’m about to buy an 05 mustang and this was very helpful, thank you!
You helped me fix the leak in my car i didnt know about the drains
Had my 2008 mustang 5 years didn't know this
Thank you king 😊
Loved how my 68 fastback looked with the back folded down. Wish Ford would have designed these that way.
Oh wow see I learned something else new watching your videos lol didn't know I could change the dash color or take the bottom rear seats out. Thank you so much for this and all your helpful videos
Very glad you like the videos and they are helpful. Thank you!
Wow plss make one video on fuse system
You can also turn off you seat belt chime, and recalibrate your gas pedal...
wow, didnt know about u can change speedmeter light colors. i liked purple so imma go put that, Thx for this Video! 😁
Thank so much
Man I’ve had a bucket in my car to catch the water for 2 years now and you just showed me that it’s just a dumb little plug that I coulda cleaned out years ago. I hate myself
Man I love this car
Thanks guys
THANK YOU
Ive had mine two years and never knew about the folding seats!
Sweet!
I just brought one I'm dropping a engine in mine this mount thanks for the tips
Those drain plugs got clogged on my 06 gt had the passenger side fill with an inch front to back, unclogged it then drivers side started filling up, this time it was the filter cabin. The whole filter was water logged, leaves and dirt clogging it. Got filter changed got a gallon of water out of there now it's dry as a bone. I also had to cut out almost the whole carpet to get all of the insulation underneath. All the insulation was water logged also
I bought my mustang from this guy he is really nice
I have that exact same body on my 2008. Same white stripes on the bottom and scoop, everything.
Sweet car
New fan here as a female owner of a 08 mustang will be doing cabin air filter this weekend that I'm off and cleaning those water drains
You think spraying it out would be safe??
@justinhorner8599 yeah I just let it dry on it's own with this Texas heat lol
Thank U
You’re literally describing so many of the things have had to figure out on my own the hard way!! Like my car flooding. Haha. Your window trick saved me today! Can you give me any advice on why my battery might keep dying? Hoping the window reset might be a part of it. But heard a loud electrical sound in the trunk prior to it dying. My tail lights have always gone out and my trunk button on my clicker doesn’t work any more. Wondering if any/all of it could be related. Also read it could be my shaker 500 cd draining the battery.
I just purchased a 2008 Shelby and my battery kept dying I also took it to the shop and found it was a relay stuck in the open position the relay was for the AC compressor hopefully this will help you
Interesting. I have the same problems. Like my cabin filling with water. Problem solved. Unfortunately, my battery keeps draining as well. I removed the radio fuse, and this seems to have temporarily fixed the issue.
How frequently should we be checking those drain plugs for clogs?
I had the leak problem and it killed the board on the right side of the floor board. When i try to make a new key it won’t communicate
What's the stereo you have? I'm looking for one to replace my old one (I have 06 mustang)
I've been driving my 05 16 years and didn't know about the seats or the rubber drains wow
I work a lot so it doesn't get driven much. 106000 miles
I was confused on the seats for a sec, I was like there’s no way. But yeah, I have a convertible so no lol
Correct, only the Coup has the 50/50 fold down seats. The convertible Mustang does not.
More I need more
Working on it! 🤣
Nice tips! Thanks! I guess that we cannot change Dashboard colour if we dont have premium buttons, can we?
You are correct.
Thanks Martin, that is helpful. My problem is that as soon as I open the car door the CD player starts to shuffle and doesn’t stop
It is a common problem with the factory radio. We usually buy a used (tested) one and replace the radio. We like to keep our Mustang stock. Although there are some nice aftermarket radios that have Bluetooth features as well.
We just bought an '05 GT Premium with the Shaker 1000 for our daughter. The CD player is stuck on ERROR code and says it's loaded up with 6 CDs but won't eject anything. We are thinking about getting an aftermarket with Bluetooth feature but want to keep the rest of the Shaker 1000 setup. Might you have any suggestions for head units that would fit the bill? The car we got is in overall fantastic condition, considering its age. It does have some minor issues, almost all cosmetic that we are already addressing. I just replaced the original red door panels that were lifting around the edges and had previously been glued back on a few different times through the years with not much success. This is the first Ford we've ever owned. We've had Chevrolets, GMCs, Hondas, Dodges and as of last year our first Toyota. I'm very impressed with this pony! The original (and only other) owner must have garaged it because the paint is in exceptionally good condition save for a small area at the very front of the hood where the V point apexes in the center, right at the edge it has started to "bubble" a little. It has a few minor dings and scratches but for an 18 year old car looks and drives so nicely. It came with just over 96K miles on it but drives great.
My husband is a lifelong grease monkey who does almost all of the maintenance on our vehicles. He, and our daughter, did all kinds of work on it as soon as we got it home. Fluids, shocks, new battery, and battery tray, one of the belts, replaced the coolant reservoir, took it to a transmission shop to fix a pinion leak, got new wheels and tires that are on the some of the more current models of the Mustang GT and did some other things I can't remember. My husband is all about stock OEM parts unless there is no choice. So this car is all serviced for 100K miles and anything worn out or "aged out" has been replaced preemptively in the hope and expectation that it will give our daughter many years of dependable and enjoyable service. She's been riding dirt bikes since she was 4 or 5 years old so she's familiar with working a clutch but mastering getting out of 1st gear (smoothly) in this car has been her biggest challenge. Shifting into higher gears isn't any hardship at this point. We are loving this car. Thank you so much for the informative tips in this video!!! @@MartinsUsedCarsCollectiblesLLC
So I'm sitting here enjoying your video and i notice something on your car that makes me think of my own. The adhesive that is supposed to bond the material to the door panel fails, even on low mileage garage kept cars. Any tips/tricks on fixing the POS door panels on these 05-09 Mustangs? Take care..
Get a Hot glue gun! It is easy to apply and easier to clean up.
@@MartinsUsedCarsCollectiblesLLC thanks, I'll give it a try. Awhile back, I tried using 3M spray. As you may know it works very well on sagging headliners and it lasts, surprisingly it had an opposite effect on my door panels. I was gonna try the green interior glue that most if not a upholstery shops use, I'll try a small area with the hot glue gun first. I'll let you know how I make out, thanks again.
I have a premium but the information centre isnt there
I have a 2006 mustang V6 I never knew about that stuff on your video, also my car runs fine but the idle will run a little low below the 1 mark when I put it in park what can I do to fix that?
running a little below 1K RPM is normal
You dont need to fix it it should be under 1 idle should be around 700-800 rpm
hey so i’m having the problem where the water gets clogged up and enters through the passenger side, so all you do is remove the drain plugs and that’s it? no need to clean them and put back?
Clean and replace them. Then keep checking them for debris.
Hey, I just bought an 05 and it has pass through seating. Maybe it’s an indication of replaces seats?
That model has 50/50 split seats from the factory as in the video. Anything else is probably aftermarket.
When I took those drain plugs out I’m not even kidding it seemed like half a gallon of water came out of each side. Probably an exaggeration but they were super clogged and a lot of water was built up
HI ! In the 2005/10 version is there a way to open both doors at the same time with the remote control?
You should be able to unlock the car door with the key fob by pressing it twice. On some of the base & deluxe versions of the Mustang, you have to press it twice to open the driver door and then another two times to open the passenger door.
What I think is strange is that I have the 08 gt premium and I don’t have any of those options 😢
Can you remove the convertible back seats or do they not move just like they don't fold down?
The bottom of the back seat on a convertible is removable. The tops are bolted onto the car. You can remove them with tools. They do not fold down like the coup models.
Those drains need to be checked often, my floor boards were always getting soaked because of them getting clogged, after replacing the carpet, never again! Now do why the Shaker 500 constantly drains the battery.
The CD changer will drain your battery. In the process currently of installing a touchscreen to get the old system with the cd changer out. An alternative solution is to turn off your stereo system everytime you turn your mustang off. That worked for me for about 4 months.
You have this same video for a 2010 Mustang Convertible?
Not yet.
Your dash lights can change 125 different colors
Except for the drain plug everything is mentioned in the owners Manual . A lot of people dont’ even read it lol
Thanks about that window tip, ima try it out later , my driver window never goes back up , I always that it was a sensor problem , so I’ll check it out
Edit: also my screen says that the driver door is open so I dunno if that has something to the with the window staying down
It didn’t work :((
Idk if you’ll read this but try lowering the window while disconnecting the battery. Then try the reset and is should work. And the only way your getting the open door thing is if your sensor is bad or your driver door isn’t locking. Hope this helps🙏🏽
@@gsr.peanut lol my sensor wasn’t working , I had to switch it , both doors
Can u change the colors on an 09.
Only if you have the three buttons on the dash.
So Can You Still Change The Color With A Regular Deluxe?
Only if you have the three information buttons.
@@MartinsUsedCarsCollectiblesLLC Damn That Sucks, I Was Finna Do Mines But Dont Have Em
2008 do they have too
2005 to 2009 Mustangs
Can anyone do the color change option on their 4.0 or is it only for the GT’s
Anyone can change the colors if you have the three extra control buttons on the dash. See the video for what I am referring. Also, the car in the video is not a GT.
@@MartinsUsedCarsCollectiblesLLC do you know what would cause the air conditioner to only blow from the defrost it blows from the vents but barely it only blows from the defroster no matter what setting you put it on feet face both only from the defrost
@@jenniferthomas905 The actuator behind the dash is the culprit.
Thank u , ❤
My cabin lights stay on when I leave the car what can you tell me to turn them off. I was outside with the car for like 10 minutes and by some miracle I got them to turn off for the night
