    Grinding sound from one of the wheels

    My first guess was the brakes, but then I noticed that I'm also hearing it when I'm rolling at low speeds without the brakes applied

    Grinding sound from one of the wheels

    At very low speeds or under braking (especially under braking) I'm starting to hear a sound that doesn't sound so great from the right front tire. It's sort of a grinding sound, or like sandpaper being rubbed against something. It's especially loud when braking at low speeds, coming to a stop...

    Need new lugnuts. Any alternatives?

    A few of my stock lugs are pretty much rounded, so I need a new set. Checking ebay, I came across these: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Wheel-Lug-Nuts-00-03-Lincoln-LS-Stainless-Capped-20-New_W0QQitemZ270333796366QQcmdZViewItemQQimsxZ20090122?IMSfp=TL0901221710007r9963 Is that my best (or only)...

    Clear sidemarkers for 00-02 LS non-sport package

    I have a pair of brand new clear sidemarker lenses with the complete assemblies and bulbs for an 00-02 Lincoln LS without the sport package. The only place I can find these online are lskoncepts, and they want $70 for just the lenses. You have to cut off the assemblies from your stock lenses and...

    Overheating! Yaaaaaay!

    Well here's an update. I haven't had any more problems until yesterday, but that's because I never really drive more than 15 minutes at a time. Yesterday I took a half hour trip and after about 20 minutes, the gauge started to creep up and the 'check engine temp' message came on about 5 minutes...

    "check charging system" question

    I had the same exact problem. The message would come up for no longer than a minute, and it would only occure once every few days. Sometimes it would come up 2 or 3 times within a 5 minute span. The problem was the alternator on its way out. Replaced it and not a problem since

    Overheating! Yaaaaaay!

    It seems I can't go more than a month without this car needing a trip to the mechanic for something serious, and the latest problem is overheating. Yesterday it started to overheat and luckily I just happened to be right by my mechanic's house, so we popped the hood and the simplest thing we...

    Precut taillight tint

    Is there anyplace online that sells precut tint for gen1 taillights? I know that it will more than likely come out like crap if I just buy a sheet and cut it myself to fit, especially with the badging they put on the lights. Also, for those of you that have the smoked or clear side markers, how...

    Alarm acting strangely, found the reason

    Well, the factory alarm on my LS sometimes likes to act as if someone is trying to break into the car when I press the unlock button on my keypad. This will happen once every 10 or so times that I go to unlock the car, and I figured out what's causing the alarm to trip. When you press the...

    Fuel calculations are off

    I've noticed that my 'miles to empty' and 'average mpg' readings in the message center don't agree with each other, and in fact they're pretty far off. For example, I filled up the car to full yesterday, so that's 18 gallons. Today, after driving a total of 20 miles after the fillup, with it...

    Anyway to disable the alarm?

    I have an '01 LS, and the alarm on this thing has got to be one of the most annoying things I've ever encountered. It will randomly honk the horn 10 short times for no reason whatsoever a few times a week, and sometimes when I try to unlock the door with the keypad, it flips out and acts like...
