    LS HID/Halogen Question

    What exactly makes it ok to run HIDs in the second gen LS even though they have a reflector and not a projector. I know Maximas have this too and a few other cars but how does that work? Some guy explains why it's bad to have retrofits or put HIDs in a halogen reflector but I see it all the...

    You think your LS is clean???

    This guy goes to town with a 3 month long detailing job. Some might say he's an enthusiast but I think he personally needs to get a life. But the end result is pretty cool. http://www.detailingworld.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=81391

    Using Navigation to Check Diagnostic Codes

    I can't remember exactly but I can see how this might help future members. For those who have factory navigation with their LS I remember you could go into the programming section by holding the top and bottom button simultaneously next to the nav screen until a keycode pad comes up. I can't...

    Intake Dimensions

    Anyone know the dimensions for the 03-06 V8 KKM Filter? Not the MAF housing, just the S&B filter itself. Or a part number that I could do on S&B's website and get that info?

    S60R Wheel on LS?

    I'm terrible with wheels sizes and what not when it comes to this car. I think I found a great deal on a set of very clean Volvo S60R Pegasus wheels with the little R etched into them. The Pegasus bolt pattern is 5 x 108mm, wheel size is 17 x 8, and a 43 offset. I think LS' also have a 5...

    Anyone know this option?

    I have an 03 Prem Sport V8. The accenting is sort of a crappy carbon fiber finish, not the satin nickel or wood trim. Yea its the stock trim. But I've never found it on any site as an option, just walnut burl and satin nickel. I wish it was real carbon fiber so I could accent easier with other...

    Switchblade Keys

    I know a while back some guy was going to try a prototype and group buy of switchblade keys for the LS. I know its just sort of a gimmick and a little toy but does anyone think these will work. If HyeLife's wheels work, then that positively, 100% means this should work too right...

    3rd coil gone in a row + cats.

    A week after getting the car back from the second time in the shop this summer, the coil goes again. 3rd time in a row. 1st time was a separate coil, 2nd and 3rd times were the same one, so I'm told. On top of it, the catalytic converters finally went too. All of the blown coils were too...

    POS LS....Bad luck yet again, hate this car.

    So for anyone who read my previous post http://www.lincolnvscadillac.com/showthread.php?t=33893 I brought it in for service, it was in Thursday to today (Wed.). All for a CEL that I am told was coils. It was sputtering when I gave it any gas and would intermittentely sputter at idle. Well I get...

    Any legal advice against dealership?

    Bought the car (03 LS V8) this past November for $19,000. They had it on the lot for no more than 2 days when they sold it to me so they wrote me a few IOU's for things which most they paid up on. More importantly, I have gotten tired of the constant problems with this car and service at...

    Strange AdvanceTrac/ABS problem.

    It's done this a few times about once a month. After sitting for just a few hours I'll go to drive and the first time I use the brakes (lightly, if at all) the pedal vibrates bad and ABS engages. Then right after the AdvanceTrac light will go and the display will say to check AdvanceTrac. It...

    Uh oh, F*** Maaco

    So I take my car to maaco for an estimate to have the back bumper redone, just the bumper. I know the horror stories but I figure the back bumper couldn't be so bad. It's the ridiculous tri-stage paint and has back up sensors and they want $615 to do sand, primer, and paint..... and 5 days. Is...

    Touch Up Painting.

    A few weeks ago after my car broke down on the side of the highway, the NJDOT decided I was still too close to the road even though I was all the way on the grass and had to use those black front bumpers to push me further. In the process it created a 6 inch scratch that is fairly thin, half is...

    A little depressed.

    Went to the Ford/Lincoln/Mercury dealer to pick up some touch up paint and it's disappointing to see all those MKZ's out in the front so I drove around back to see if they had any LS's and on my way back I drive through the service area parking lot and see nearly 90% LS's in there. A grand marq...

    "AC Filter Change Required"

    I assume that means air conditioning filter? Dealership wants $90 to change it. I have a funny feeling that its a $10 part with $80 in labor but what reason would a dealer have to rip me off like THAT?!?! Is this a hard part to change? Anyone know how? Or the part number for the filter...
