LOL...ok so I have done normal stuff like oil change, brakes, coolant flush, tires, transmission fluid change, etc...

2002

Just wanted to post a positive with this car. I use this car exclusively for travel/business trips. After 150,000 miles this car still gets 25 MPG on the highway...what more can anyone ask for?

Wow, can't believe I missed this.

02 V8 with 125K (about 95K highway) and finally needing at least one coil replaced. Other than that,this car has been great. Oil changes every 3k, Transmission flush at 90K and that is it! I think I need to replace my sway bar bushings.

Thanks a ton guys.

Has anyone had any luck with these coils? Is this a case of you get what you pay for? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2000-01-02-03-04-05-06-Lincoln-LS-V8-Ignition-Coils_W0QQitemZ160374012076QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMotors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories?hash=item25570938ac

Hey thanks for the tip! I haven't tackled anything yet but I will soon.

Hey one more thing guys...I forgot to mention that it misses at idle sometimes too. I was told today that it's more likely to be the EGR since I don't have a CEL or a code. What do you think? Thanks for all the help.

If it's only 1 coil, is it recommended to change them all while I things apart or is just one at a time ok?

I tried it in 4th and it wouldn't do it. Well it has 125K and I've never had anything go wrong so I might as well get them done. Sent you a PM.

Thanks! For some reason I haven't been able to duplicate it again hot or cold.

Thanks...no it's a 2002 and yes a V8. I just had the plugs changed a couple of months ago. Maybe I'll try to change these myself if it's easy.

Yea it's a V8. I'll drive it in 4th...what if it doesn't do it in 4th? I hear the coils are a pain to change.

Even when I floor it there is no hesitation. Is it a chance the PCV or the EGR is bad? Who do you recommend I let look at it other than the dealer?
