    Well, this is Lincoln vs Cadillac

    Getting very close to another car purchase. Having had an 03 LS V8, it's high on my list. However, the 05-07 Caddy STS V8 has crept onto the list as well. But I know virtually nothing about them. Anyone have/had both a Gen2 LS and a Gen1 STS? I know there's 40 more horsies in the Caddy, but...

    maybe another one?

    Had an 03 LS V8 5-6 years ago. I liked the car a lot. Had a coil replaced under the TSB and the previous owner had the valve cover gasket dealt with. Now I'm looking at maybe (and I have to emphasis maybe) picking up a really clean 06. Were these issues, and any others, fixed by then? Is...

    Coil replacement and vcg

    Does the valve cover have to be removed to replace a coil? The reason I ask is I had a coil replaced on my 03 V8 under warranty a couple months ago and the vcg has been leaking just a little bit onto the exhaust since about that time. The previous owner had the vcg update done just before I...

    Any tobacco chewers?

    I've got a sh*tpile of coupons from the Wisconsin Tobacco Settlement a couple years ago. Each coupon is good for $6 off any 3-can purchase of Copenhagen, Skoal, Rooster or Red Seal and are good until 12/31/28. I'll sell 10 coupons ($60 off) for $25 including shipping. I don't chew anymore so...

    F'in Gremlin

    No, not the old AMC! The one in my '03. My driver's seat doesn't always return forward on the easy entry key-in. It also doesn't move forward when the memory 1 button is used. All other memory functions and the easy exit slide back work as they should. The seat works fine when using the...

    So it isn't always the coils...

    Every symptom my car had, from the rough idle to the hesitation and surging on acceleration to the reduced fuel mileage felt like a typical misfire to me. And I've been working on cars for a long time. But I brought the car in and all it was a dirty MAF sensor. I guess it would pay to clean...

    For those who've had coils replaced under the extended warranty

    I noticed while searching, that some lucky owners have been able to get the dealer to replace all 8 coils and plugs under the extended warranty. I'm bringing mine in tomorrow for it's second coil warranty - the previous owner had one replaced just before I bought it less than 4000 miles ago...

    New Road America Touring Pics

    I wasn't the only LS this time. Older fella drove his LS from South Dakota. He's a former vintage racer and still holds a vintage racing license, so he knew how to drive. We went out together so there's some pics with both of us in the frame. As before, http://partypics.com/, then enter...

    Jack storage

    Well, the search didn't turn up anything for this - not even google advanced. The previous owner had a flat last year and they didn't put the jack and lug wrench back properly. It's loose and banging around on some bumps. Nevermind, I got it. The jack has to part way up for everything to...

    Not ANOTHER exhaust question!

    So I was searching on here and youtube for various low cost exhaust ideas. I'm not going be buying new mufflers. Considering just removing the stock mufflers, but was wondering how it would sound removing only the resonators and keeping the mufflers? I couldn't find any info or sound clips...

    First questions from the noob

    The previous owners of my '03 V8 bought it certified pre-owned. They kept the window sticker from their purchase (not the same as the original window sticker.) Under "Optional Equipment", it lists "Rental Program 56G". Autocheck history report shows it was originally titled as a rental...
