New Qvale owner: I need help
I'm a new owner who bought mine a few months ago far from home where I drove it for two days. I just got it shipped to my home so I'm now ready to register it in my state and get it really going. It has a Saleen Supercharger.
Right now I need the following help: 1. The battery is dead. I can see where it is located , seems hard to get to, so how do I jumpstart the car? Where do I connect to? 2. How can I get a copy of the owners manual? Is a pdf file available or some electronic file? 3. The car needs a few new tires. The current worn tires are very low profile and the car scrapes a lot on speed bumps etc. What tires are factory recommended? 4. With the targa panel removed, but the rear window up, the air in the car starts vibrating. Is this normal? Can anything be done about this?

#4 I assume is with your windows up too. Did you try cracking one window down just a bit? That should help a little .

Re: New Qvale owner: I need help
Hi John, and anyone else reading my post.
I got the car started.
Is there a manual I can purchase or download?
I also need a remote (fob) . How do I get one made or programmed? The car came with just one key and no remote.
I understand that the buffering of the air in the car happens with the rear window up and that it can be reduced lowering the windows. Is there anything else that improves it even more. How about some kind of spoiler? Some cars have that with their sunroof.
Can anybody recommend a Mustang tune-up shop in the San Francisco South Bay area?

Re: New Qvale owner: I need help
I will first get the car tuned and smogged and then maybe drop by so I can order some parts from you. Do you have front floor mats?
How do I get a fob? Can I mail order it? I only have one key. I made a copy at Home Depot. The copy crancks the engine but doesn't start it. Is there something in the original key that is electronic?

Re: New Qvale owner: I need help
YEs , the key is "chipped" it needs to be an original key and then programmed to the vehicles computer. I have fobs available, but no floor mats.Loyd Mats in LA has our template and can make you a set.

Re: New Qvale owner: I need help
Hi John:
I sent an e-mail to Loyds Mats.
For the fob or the extra key do I need to come to your shop or can either be done remotely?
Do you have a web-site or list of items for the Q-vale that you have. Any options that I might be interested in?
