Run the ABS self Test in FORScan. My traction control started acting up on me one day and I ran the self test and it hasn't had a hiccup in a while. Also if you have a laptop you can get the FORScan Windows tool for free and it works with bluetooth OBD-ii readers as well.

Gagurass, let me tell you this. Joe knows more than just about anyone I've ever seen, to include Ford Certified Technicians about these cars. There are a lot of cars that do better with aftermarket parts, but the LS is quirky enough in itself where Motorcraft is the one go-to for most things...

It's been over a month, I do thousands on Amazon and they still said no

Hey guys, not sure if this kind of post of allowed if it's not please take it down. I went to change the window regulator in my 2nd Gen LS and I bought the regulator and motor for the 1st Gen LS by mistake. I bought it brand new off Amazon and I'm offering it here for $50 + shipping to your...

But why would that only cause issues in snow

Where's the best place to buy the Motorcraft COPs? It looks like Ford parts giant selfs the coils and boots separately?

Always appreciate your input, Joe. I'm coming up on about 100k on my LS, it was time to change the plugs and coils anyways. (How hard is it on the 03 V8? + Who do you recommend brand wise?) I think if it was the wiper cowl it would be worse with rain, but who knows could just be one of those...

Hey all, I looked up results for etc engine Failsafe Mode occurring but no one has my scenario. Basically, it can be snowing out and I go clean off my car, drive it for about 10 minutes and then ETC Engine Failsafe Mode comes on. I saw that many things can happen when this appears, so what is...

Can't wait to see how this ends!

You're right! Gen 2

Title says it all, I searched for remote start and didn't see much of anything so I'm curious if y'all have a remote start and how you got it done. Thanks :)

So Joe I need help sourcing a line. I think the line on the right side that goes out of the compressor is leaking. There's no leak coming from the compressor itself, but there's oil drops hanging on the line. Can you help me source the part please?

No nothing is Wrong, I was just curious

So I'm on the highway, the cars get going up to about 25-30, nothing too high for third gear, and then slow back down to a halt. Is it bad to use sst to keep it in third gear to reduce the constant 1-2-3 shifts or is it harmful and should I let it shift on its own?

Yep they are EDIT: Ayyy joe
