    RIP: The LS Is No More

    Due to the electrical problems that I was having with the battery draining in weather that was below 45 degrees, living in Wisconsin, and NO warranty on the car anymore, the LS was retired to a dealership for a newer car with less miles, and a full warranty. This site is awesome for any...

    Quick Pics

    oTook a couple new pics of the LS today after I did the tint, and got a couple of my sacraligious neighbors Mk VIII. Guy hasn't driven it in over a year, and refuses to switch to a coilover suspension to fix his busted air ride system. And to top it off, even though he hasn't worked in almost a...

    Aftermarket Exhaust vs. Muffler Delete

    Ok, so I finally find the tips that I want for my exhaust, but I am still up in the air as to whether I should go with aftermarket mufflers, or with a muffler delete. I know there are a lot of people in here that have done aftermarket exhaust, but has anyone done just a muffler delete? And if...

    Electrical Drain

    Ok, so I am still having the same problem as before with the battery being less than 12 volts when I go to start it in the morning. The battery is less than 90 days old, and it will hold a charge as long as the car is on. When I come to a stop at night, there is no dimming of the lights so I...

    Electrical Problem??

    Ok, so I get into my car and start it up to go to work this morning and my gauges are bouncing all over the place. I put a new battery in back in January, and its a non-motorcraft battery with 985 crank amps and 1183 cold crank amps. The PAT light on the dash is lit solid on the dash when I turn...

    Yet Another Start-up Issue

    Ok guys, I have a 2001 LS V8. This morning I am in a rush to get to work, and when I get into my LS and put the key in and turn it, I get everything but the engine turning on. The PATS light is lit solid, and I get a "Check Traction Control" message on the dash. The battery is brand new, but the...

    Wood Trim

    Does the wood trim in the LS actually separate from the panels, i.e. the doors and dash?

    P0307 Misfire Code

    So I am on my way back to work from lunch the other day, when I hit the gas to get out into traffic and the check engine light comes on. I get home after work and check the code with my reader and I have a cylinder 7 misfire. All of the plugs have been changed out, but the code still remains. So...

    Chrome Bumper Trim

    Does the chrome trim on the front and rear bumpers come off? I want to color match it, and I know the best way to do this is to take it off and paint it. Plus, does the rear plate surround come off as well. I am not a fan of chrome, and I think that those pieces would look better matched to the car.

    Compass Resetting?

    Has anyone ever needed to reset their compass in the rearview mirror. Mine needs to be reset, and I can't find anything in the manual to reset it without going to a dealership and paying to have it done. If I can get away with doing it myself, I'd be better off. ANY help would be great!

    Quick Pics

    Took a couple of quick picks on my phone so that I can at least get some pics on here. Should get some more soon when I dig out my actual camera instead of using my phone.
