Holy Molee! Confirmed. My alarm goes off when the key is in my hand and i thought that's loud, but if no key is in the car, it's theft prevention, so makes sense, as anyone could open the car. Went to local dealership yesterday to get a new code, as I misplaced my old one, and they were...

I just got an SCT4. Very nice, easy to use. Have my shift too hard, will lighten that up and reprogram. The added fuel at Wide Open Throttle and Spark Advance, this thing is amazing! Getting less bogging down and more power. I notice the Speed Limiter is off, I've hit 133 before, but...

I tried this product from Amazon. The fit guide said it would fit, but the clamps were too tall. The return process was easy and they gave me a refund without mailing it back to them, said I could keep it. Maybe the Yakima rack is the only real fit...

Giving F150 to my kid, down to just the Lincoln. I'm also looking for a roof rack for my 2005 LS. Everything says it does not fit my car. What do people do, use a universal one?

Got new CATs at a Meineke shop. $1,400 installed. He said it comes as three pieces, meaning 2 pipes with CATs and a centerpiece thing where they join, possibly the resonator? No option to buy just one CAT at this shop. I noticed on CarComplaints.com that CAT failure is a known issue on my...

Thanks, Joe, I'm weak on engine nomenclature for sure. Too tired from work to dig out the invoice, but they said a leak we thought might be coming from somewhere else was fixed during the coil replacement.

Yes, the mechanic said there was a minor oil leak from worn manifold gaskets, which were replaced during the coil job.

I'm at 105,000 miles now, 2005 V8. Pretty sure I changed plugs with Coils, will check my receipt, did not look at old plugs. There are no other codes. This has been going on for a while, there was a bad coil code that led to replacing the coils the second time. The marginal coil(s) had...

I've been getting the P0420 code for a while now, about a year I guess. Recently put in new OEM coils (2nd time), based on a code for that, and P0420 still comes back. Bought a new code reader and the O2 sensors test OK. One of the CAT banks, 1 I think, tests bad. It took 150 miles on the...

So, I finally got the Coil code and had the coils and plugs replaced. There was a leak in one of the manifolds that was making it appear there was an oil leak on the back of the engine. That's fixed. Mechanic said plugs were fouled. EGR valve was bad, replacing that fixed my rough idle...

I got a new code recently, P0357, Ignition Coil. Have had rough idle lately, bad gas mileage, slow takeoff. Going to use YourMechanic.com again, they just put a new starter on my Ford truck. I've replaced the coils once, when I first bought my car a few years ago. Have put about 40k miles on...

Today's stress test results at Advance Auto. The guy wouldn't let me turn on the stereo with the other accessories because the machine didn't tell him to tell me that. : )

I found out my favorite mechanic is still there, spoke to him this morning. I guess they keep him in the shop working versus counter work. At any rate, I sent him that TSB you posted, Joe. Will see if he thinks he can do the test. His opinion is that a coil can test good and then fail...

Ugh, got the Parking Brake Sensor/ETC Failsafe Mode warning again while on the interstate. Had headlights, fogs, stereo, subwoofer amp, head unit, air conditioning all going at once. The pre-conditions are at least becoming predictable. Restart car and it goes away. It's time to find a...
