I’ll start by saying yes, I’m crazy. I’m trying to help my dad out as he is on his fourth TC (‘97, ‘03, ‘07, ‘11) and we were both VERY surprised when we got it on the lift and discovered this 2011 Signature Limited does not have air springs. After looking at it and researching it, it looks like...

Thanks, Joe. Looks like I’ll be keeping my searches to TC’s.

Here's a random question that I am hoping I might get some help from here. I am an auto broker but I haven't had any experience with the latest-generation Continentals. My mother, retired and on her 4th Town Car, is looking to replace hers after 187k miles. Since I have been having a hard time...

My vote is also for the thermostat and housing. Mine broke at under 90k and caused the thermostat to sit crooked, and caused some cooling issues.

Thank you, I just placed the order. The aluminum eBay unit looked nice, but barely fit and I couldn't be sure if the tubes were routed correctly internally, so that proper degassing and pressures could happen inside. Should have went with FSP from the beginning.

Has anyone seen/purchased these? Radiator Coolant Reservoir 02-05 Ford Thunderbird 3.9L Lincoln LS 3.0 3.9L 00-06 | eBay I am considering replacing mine since I have the strut tower brace pulled off anyway...I called my local dealership and they quoted me $355 for OEM bottle. This is...

UPDATE again: what a PITA. I ended up having to disconnect the heater core hoses at the firewall, as well as disconnecting them from the DCCV up front. This allowed me enough access to slip the high/low pressure line assembly by the exhaust headers. However...it didn’t end there. You’ll also...

That’s a beautiful pair of FoMoCo offerings! I have a 2004 Lariat myself, but I really like the Limited wheels you have on your FX4.

I upgraded my ‘03 to factory HID’s when I found them on fleaBay for a decent price ~5 years ago. They both had pretty advanced cloudiness in the lenses. In most cases, the cloudiness is the spray-on layer of UV protectant that came from the factory. I consider this a ‘sacrificial layer’ of...

UPDATE: Finally got a little time to get back to this. Looked it up in the manual, and found that it is MUCH easier to get at by removing the wipers, wiper cowl, and HVAC pollen filter duct from the passenger side. Here is the shop manual illustration: Now I'm going to try and fish it...

Thank you for the manual. I am going to try to take the wiper cowl off, and remove the HVAC occupant filter assembly to gain a little more room. I'll also post some pictures if this helps. How much of an angle do I need to have the front lifted to best bleed the cooling system?

Has anyone had any experience replacing the A/C liquid line that goes from the receiver/dryer and compressor to the evaporator? I am really hoping to do this without having to remove the coolant hoses on the firewall for the heater core...my worry is that disturbing the cooling system will cause...

Man, just think of the labor that went into that just to sit incomplete...

Thanks, Joe. I'll try this when I get home. Where is a good place to find a terminal diagram of the starter, or are they marked?

I'm hoping to get some ideas on this issue, and yes, I have used the Google custom search extensively with no close matches. My 2003 Sport 3.9L has almost 90k miles and is always driven in the summer, and stored covered with a battery tender in the winter. That was the case this time, and the...

A lot of searching, but nothing solid on this. How do I get the rear map lights down to replace the bulbs on a second Gen?

-UPDATE- As of a few days after the refrigerant lines were vacuumed and the Suva recharged, the A/C once again stopped working after the refrigerant leaked out for the second time. Dye is visible on the bottom side of the compressor, likely near the scroll control valve o-ring. Is this item...

Hi folks - I was hoping to get some advice from everyone who knows this car better than I do. I am new to this side of the forum - I have had my V8 LS for a couple years and have finally decided to get a faster Cadillac, and I don't think I'll be going back to Lincoln. I've decided on a...

Update: The fan does run at what I would consider to be a quite low speed at 220, and the highest I could get it was 224 momentarily, 222 consistently, with a high idle of 1700 RPM.

First off, thank you for the valuable replies. I have finally had time to look deeper into this. I tried both the suggested tests to check the fan's operation, unplugging the smaller connector while KOER or KOEO didn't start the fan. However, jumping the green/yellow wire while KOEO made the...
