it was a sad day to say the least... put a lot of love into this car... but in the end it was the smart thing to do. goodbye LS... maybe one day we will meet again!

wow it's been a long time since i posted here. probably because i wasn't having any LS issues, lol. well my good fortune seems to have come to an end. just got back from a long road trip up to the Sierras and back, and once back in my garage, the LS started shaking BAD and i'm hearing clicks...

hey all, i have the most f'in annoying sound coming from the passenger side front speaker. it's the plastic housing that the speaker sits in, it's loose and makes this terrible plastic squeak sound whenever i'm doing 30-50mph. anyways i tried to remove the grill and it's in there super tight and...

when i'm backing out of a parking space and cut the wheel all the way i am getting a lot of crunching/creaking sound in the front. happening on both sides now. sounds like it is coming from the axle area. could this be the lower front ball joints?

it's only been two days so maybe this is premature, but i am getting 1-2 MPG less on average than i did when i had failing coils and old spark plugs. that doesn't seem to make much sense to me so maybe there is something else at work here. my CEL is still on, after at least 10 starts. the last...

noticed it after getting back from the car wash. their policy states they arenot liable for any damage you discover once it's driven off their lot. dammit! oh well it was probably cracked and waiting to split anyways, but still an annoying way to find out. luckily Max has got that part for a...

and dammit, i think it looks pretty friggin good! it matches very nicely with the chrome & blue tinted turn signal bulbs. i still don't like the chrome surround on the grille but when it comes time to change that i'll just buy another emblem, only $15. pics will be coming soon... have to finish...

Need to do my coils & VCGs replacement soon and want to do the spark plugs as well while i'm at it. Anyone know of a good place to buy a pack of 8 online? I can't find any on eBay and all the major Ford places are a little pricey... was hoping to find something like the global-automotive guy on...

took me awhile to jump on the bandwagon but finally cleared my corners, put in some silverstar tinted turn signal bulbs, and the clear sidemarkers from that whack Taiwanese eBay seller. don't pay attention to the rest of the car as she's pretty damn dirty, this is pre-detailed lol. i'm not super...

Just recently I was reading one of the daily coil-problem-threads and someone mentioned something about fixing the coils, else the cats will get flooded and die. Well this made me think back to when I first saw the CEL light up on my dash and I was scratching my head for months trying to figure...

what would jesus drive?

This grille, with painted surround... ...on a 2000-2002 Premium with the chrome strip on the front bumper? every pic i've seen of that grille is on a 2003+ model, or a 2000-2002 Sport model that doesn't have the chrome. if anyone here has this and can post a pic of what it looks like it...

Need to throw on new rotors & pads next month and am doing a lot of research from past LvC threads, and discussions (i.e. debates) on other car websites like Acura, BMW, Porsche etc. of course i trust the experience and expertise of our own LvC community most so i figured i would open up the...

haven't had any luck lately browsing ebay for these things, and of course ls koncepts is out of stock right now too. looking for a place that has this stuff in stock. where did you guys get yours? (please don't say ebay... lol)

with all the threads since the beginning of the LVC forums about the plethora of problems with 2000 LS's i just wanted to share that my 2000 LS V8 finally got dropped off at the mechanic for some preventative maintenance but still nothing has failed or caused the car to break down, not start...

hey all, i'm in LA, and need to get one of my catalytic converters replaced (failed pretty freakin early, at 60k miles) in order to pass smog check which is required by february 08. mechanic quoted me over $600 for part & labor. quick search online showed me some cats for $55. now here's the...

hey everyone it's been ages since i posted, hope everyone is doing well. so in 2006 i posted a thread about how i had a code pulled when my engine light came on. went to autozone, it was an O2 sensor for one of the catalytic converters saying the cat was operating below threshold. after pulling...

i know i'm not the only one who's had a bulb melt into rear light assembly... the problem isn't with the assembly itself, but the voltage going to the bulb (i'd imagine), so how do you pinpoint where the extra voltage is coming from? wouldn't the fuse burst before the voltage reached the bulb...

looked through the tech articles but couldn't find one about this. need to replace the fuel filter on a 2000 LS V8, any links / tutorials would be most appreciated.

on the freeway last week going about 40 down an onramp, car in front of me is creeeeeping so i step on the gas to get around him. car does not shift into higher gear and instead i start losing speed, accelerator is unresponsive. tried manually switching to a lower gear and there was no response...
