It was a while ago, but here’s what I remember. For sure, the hose leading to the dccv from the upper hose had to be blocked off. I put a cap and clamp on the upper hose fitting and the hose I left alone since no water entered the system. I just bent it and tucked it out of the way. Then, I...

I saw your posts about that. That’s why I decided to buy a used one from an earlier model, I didn’t want to risk having a new one fail. I’m in the San Fernando valley. Near the 5 and 118. I work in Chatsworth. If I have another issue, I’ll probably have my original redone by that company...

The heater core is cheap, but getting to it would have been a huge ordeal that I didn’t want to go through. I decided to bypass it along with the dccv.

I flushed my system once and left the flush in there for longer than I should have. My heater core started leaking on the driver side kind of like where your picture shows a leak. Also, my carpet was wet near the throttle pedal. It smelled like coolant without a doubt.

9005 are completely clear, 9006 should have almost like a cap painted on.

Post a review if you decide to get it done. I kept my old one for that same reason too.

Just an FYI. 9006 are low beam bulbs and 9005 are high beam bulbs. I sold auto parts for 10 years, I only remember one exception to that rule and it wasn’t a Lincoln. Often times, people would ask for the low beam, I’d sell the correct 9006 bulb, and then they’d come back upset because i sold...

Sold!

I thought this was interesting. Sounds like a good alternative to buying new. Jaguar landing page

Thanks joegr. I decided to swap it out while I overhauled the cooling system. Figured it’d be easier to do while I had the radiator and intake off. I found one from a 2005 with 170k miles for $30 shipped. I got lucky I found it and just in time. Looks like the rubber was acting like the lobe on...

That picture I posted earlier was taken last week. I’m now changing it and glad I am. Although it wasn’t leaking, it is definitely about to start. Mind you, I drained the system out last week and haven’t driven it since.

My radiator blew on my ‘03 at around 180k miles. I am doing an overhaul on my ‘06 and I will be replacing the radiator now because it’s a very common problem on these cars. The front top passenger side corner develops a vertical crack on these cars. My ‘06 has 125k miles and if I look through...

I would be interested in the harmonic balancer. I will send a pm.

I have an 06 with 125k miles. I turned the engine on today after changing the oil and I noticed the harmonic balancer does not run true. I wouldn’t call it a wobble, but I can see how someone else would. No noise or issues, but the belt did have a groove that looked like it was worn. The belt...

I just ordered those seals. Looks like an easy fix.

Asking $180 plus shipping.

I worked at Autozone and Gabriel shocks suck. I sold many because they were cost effective and I’ve used them in a car or two. Customers would swap them out often and the ones I used on my own cars were too soft. Unless you get their mono tube shock or better, they are all mostly low performing...

Ttt

I was talking about their shocks in general. I used to work in an auto parts store and KYB had a good reputation amongs employees, customers (those who knew about them), and mechanics. Not saying they’re the best in all cases, just that they are, in general, a good shock. I will admit that if...
