Found a hole in the condenser, which caused a loss of 134. So with 146k on the car thought the compressor should be changed proactively too. After pulling the compressor the drained oil showed no metal flakes indicating an internal failure. New compressor, new condenser, new drier, add oil...

So the other day I started the LS and was going to the store. Never made it as the engine was running rough, set a CEL and could hear a strange whine. Had to turn around to get back to the house, but left it running so I could try to hear where the whine was coming from. It appeared to be...

So from what I'm reading here, Ford is now using Standard Motor Products Chine made coil as the Motorcraft part. Not something I'm as comfortable with from years ago when I last changed coils. Looking at RockAuto's site it appears Denso is the other popular choice, and yet maybe it's my lack...

Hey guys. I haven't been around much. 30k ago at 100k I replaced all the coolant parts except radiator, doc'd in an old thread. Yes, Motorcraft parts all the way including degas as a PM. This spring the LS has gotten cranky. We had an overheat, which shouldn't have happened. After checking...

I've put up my AE over on eBay if anyone is interested. Worked very well on the LS. 121492679594

Hey guys, it's been a while since I was here. The LS has developed a situation of high humidity on the windshield on first startup, typical of water not draining from the A/C housing. Can someone point me to where the drain port is on this vehicle? I've tried to do a search here and on google...

Tried searching .... Doing my fall LS work & look over (which included a salvaged right rear knuckle assembly) and noticed that the upper front balljoint and tie rod boots are starting to split. No play in either and going inside showed uncontaminated grease. Boots tend to be available...

P1406 Differential Pressure Feedback Electronic Sensor Circuit Downstream Hose is the code. Can't find a past message about it and I'm not familiar with the V6. Can anyone tell me where this is and if you've had a past fault? Parts lists are not helping what it is / where it is. Thanks.

I've been looking at this problem on this site and over at the Jaguar forum. It seems with mostly plastic upper tensioners both the guides and bodies break down over time. A very few people have noted problems with the primary tensioners, and some have noted cracks with the lower guides. With...

So I know some here have used these chains, but I was wondering how you have done and how long you've been running with these links.

Over the last weekend I changed out all the plumbing on my wife’s 2003 3.9L LS with almost 100k on the clock. She is dependent on the vehicle to get her to her business so reliability is an issue. In a past thread http://www.lincolnvscadillac.com/showthread.php?t=77940 I had noted that she...

My wife's '03 LS with almost 100k just had an overheat on her way home so I went and got it drivable and back. It turned out that a small hose off the top of the thermostat housing popped off, not the normal break in a plastic part. But considering the warnings on this site of plastic system...

Have a new pair of Stop Tech rear brakes hoses for the 1st Generation LS. $75 PayPal included fees and shipping, or make me an offer (PM). eBay ID Jack*s-garage

Hey guys. Yeah, I know common issue. We're original owners of a 2003 LS V8 Auto w/Premium Sport Pkg which has given us good service but starting to have the typical issues. (We used to have a 2001 LS as well.) Just had the passenger door regulator blow apart so it's time to change them...
