ATE is all I use in my Road Racing Vintage Car. Flush once a year, great braking, I'm in a Pinto that can outbrake most Miatas, it generates some good heating and the fluid does great, no complaints.
Swapped powerstop pads on to the fronts. Stopped the squeal, improved braking and now I have absolutely zero brake dust that used to be horrible with the original pads. The pads weren’t expensive, definitely worth it.
My 4.0 V6 Mustang has not jumped timing and destroyed the engine despite the 4.0 being infamous for it at very low mileage. It's probably because I actually take care of my car and change the oil regularly.
Lightning here, so far just rotating tires and a new cabin filter.
I've changed the cabin air filter twice, rotated the tires three times (should have done that more often in hindsight), and I've replaced all the wiper blades.
I’ve had the cabin air filter replaced once.
I averaged 2.3 mi/kWh with the stock Hankook AT2’s on my Lariat. I replaced them with the same size Hankook AT2 Xtreme’s, which is basically a slightly more aggressive version of the stock tire that’s 3-peak rated and not EV rated/low rolling resistance. It dropped me to a 2.2 mi/kWh average.
Had my water pump go out around 29K miles this past winter. My coolant was very low and my heat was working properly. Luckily I was still under warranty. Keep an eye on that water pump. They’re notorious for failing.
I have two sets of these on a pair of 2013,2015 Ford Fusions. 225-50-17.
One tire got a sidewall bubble at a couple months old. Walmart refused to help because I didn't have them install the tires but I suspect they would have come up with other reasons like road hazard to avoid a warranty claim. I was able to talk to Goodyear and have one of their company stores inspect. The cause was a crack at the inner liner splice and air migration into the carcass. They refunded me my purchase price.
A tire on my other car had the same problem in almost the exact same spot also less than a year old. Same result.
Tires are currently 2-3 years old and they have weathering and sidewall cracking. (Parked outside in Michigan). Multiple tires are developing something that looks like a heat ring to varying degrees.
Just realized Carmax put a new set of these on the 2020 Mustang I bought from them. Easily the worst performing tire in the rain that I have ever encountered. Instant hydroplaning on concrete, when there isn't even much of any water. At least knowing how terribly cheap these tires are, I may not feel bad replacing them before their end of trade life. Dangerous! Avoid!
