[QUOTE="662, post: 16057399, member: 161934"] Well given the signature of cars running normal for 6k+ miles then a quickly increasing oil consumption until failure... I bet the issue is a failure of something with a rate that increases over time/miles. Seems like once it occurs, the cars run about 3k miles before the problem is extreme consumption... Given all the failures, Ford will not be able to decline the warranty events and I bet we get less pushback when it does happen. We will learn what it is sooner than later, and in the meantime, the 5 year 60k drivetrain warranty will cover us pretty well. The failure signature and Fords response may correlate to our cars residual value after 5 years. I used to believe voodoo residual was going to be among the very best... Those on these forums crying about tq make me laugh. GT350R is spectacular on track and road. Residual may be tops even with a tarnish spot :-) I certainly relish mine. [/QUOTE]
