So I ended up getting a 2014 Sho Tuxedo black with a 3/14 build date Friday night. It's the non PP with the with automatic parking and the 401a, sunroof, messaging seats and the 20 inch wheels.  Love it so far. Yesterday driving I noticed a very slight shudder on the highway in 6th gear and it also happens when I step hard sometimes.  The shudder is not huge just very faint. The weather was sunny and in the 70s. Are any of you guys experiencing this and is it normal. On another note I am looking for to going to the ford show in PA and meeting some of the members.  I always went to the corvette show when I had my z06 and had a blast.  Thanks John.

Congrats on your SHO, and hope to see you at Carlisle.

Could be in the learning/breakin phase.  But, just in case, here goes.  Knock sensor wiring and PCM calibration (even though practically newborn) are the 2 things that come immediately to mind. Check all hoses/clamps underhood, might be a small boost leak.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Thanks Guys wanted to post a pic but for some reason it wont let me says the file is to big. I  will try to take another one later. Been dealing with trying to sell my house. So far I have tinted the windows and ordered a Corsa Exhaust for it. My wife says that is enough spending for right now LOL.

Just edit the picture in mspaint (if you're on a PC) go to resize, change to pixels and make it 1280x1024 and save. Should work great after that.

Welcome!!
Another option for pics is hosting the pic online somewhere ie. google, photobucket, etc. then inserting a link to the pic using the little icon that looks like a mona lisa (just under the BOLD button).

Enjoy the forum!!
