My New Toy

Hi Everyone

I just got a new toy, 2011 Kona Blue Shelby GT 500 with 29000 km. It has always been my dream to own a Shelby GT 500.

I am having two issues with it.

1) My iPhone 6 and sync are not working properly. The only thing that is not working is the txt messaging. Yes i have reset both my phone and my sync as per the instruction that I found one the forum. One thing that i have noticed is that i don't have the option to turn on the notifications under the sync menu. Yes my phone is up to date. I don't know how to check this or even update it.

2) I am having same 1st to 2nd gear grind and sometimes not able to even shift in to 2nd. RPM or engine temperature as no affect. I have looked for the tsb on this issue but haven't been able to find it. Any help with this would be appreciated. Yes my car it still under factory warranty until 12 july 2015.

I live in British Columbia, Canada if this helps.

I can't get my iPhone texting working with SYNC in my 2013 GT either.

The car looks awesome! Congratulations, Yellow Mustang Man. Have you already checked to make sure you’re running the latest SYNC software version available for this VIN? If not, log in at: www.Support.Ford.com to check.

Since I only handle the SYNC stuff, I suggest reaching out to FordService to see if they have any helpful information on your second concern. Follow this link to send them a PM: https://themustangsource.com/forums/...newpm&u=111098

Hey SpectreH,

When you follow these steps, do you see the SHOW NOTIFICATIONS option on your iPhone? Which iPhone are you connecting and which iOS is it running?

Hey Yellow Mustang Man,

Your Shelby is gorgeous! Congrats on making your dream a reality; you've reaped the fruits of your hard work and persistence!

My name is Nikki. I'm the Ford Canada customer service rep here. Regarding the grinding between 1st and 2nd, has your dealer provided a diagnosis? Send me a private message with your full name, phone number, VIN, and preferred dealer; I'll get this in motion.

Nikki

Can both of you please send over your VIN in a PM? I'd like to look into this further.

hey congrats on the beauty. I was eyeing one up exactly like that but it vanished. maybe that was the one

Are you in the lower mainland? if so let's get together and have a blue and white mustang ride.

that almost looks like the car wash in Mission.

Hi DarrenGT

It could be the one you were looking at. Yes i live in the lower mainland and you are right that it is the car wash in mission. I live in mission. I was just think if we could get a few mustangs to meet up in the Canadian Tire parking lot every Wednesday night through out the summer months for a show and shine. I would love to go for a cruise.

A wednesday night mustang meet at CT would be cool. There's a classic car show on friday nights in the summer that some of us go to at A&W, but it's mostly older classics.

Awesome ride bro, any plans to mod that bad boy? Those internals can hang with some serious boost!
