    Adding - Not Deleting - Air Suspension

    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...

    2017+ Continental Buyer's Guide?

    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...

    Has anyone had any experience replacing the A/C liquid line that goes from the receiver/dryer and compressor to the evaporator?

    No Crank, No Start on a 2003 LS V8

    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...

    STS-V Advice

    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...

    I'll bet this is a one-off...

    Okay, so here's the background. I had been driving my LS to work (about 12 miles) without issue on and off all summer. A few weeks ago, I parked it from work on Friday night and spent the next few days on vacation. When I returned to drive it to work the following Wednesday morning, it was...

    Intermittent Door Lock Problems

    I have one electrical gremlin (knock on wood) that all the other threads don't replicate. Sometimes my driver's door won't unlock, but it's very occasionally. My key will open the lock but all power options will not. As far as I know, all the other buttons on the door still work too. I can't...

    Dash Cam Installation

    Good evening folks, I picked up an Itronics Dashcam and while I'm waiting for it to arrive, I wanna talk wiring. I know where I'm going to mount it, and I'd like to route the wires back down to behind the stereo HU since I'm going to hook up an RCA video wire so I can view the cam through the...

    Hello again folks, thanks to everyone on all the info I've gotten here so far. I hope I'm not beating the solenoid issue to death, but... I've got an '03 V8 Sport with almost 69K miles. I've replaced all the plugs and coils and don't have any more driveability issues (knock on wood). I'm...

    OEM HID Headlights

    Hello everyone, quick question for anyone who may know. I recently found a pair of OEM HID Headlight assemblies on eBay for less than $250 and picked them up. I have a 2003 LS Sport with the halogens as stock, and I want to make sure I have everything ready before I dive into this project. Can...

    Another LED Resistor Question

    Good morning folks, I bought a pair of Philips Vision 3157 LED's for the Tail/Brake bulbs of my '03 Sport. I haven't gotten around to switching them out because I want to be prepared before I start. I need to get them put in since I have a brake bulb burned out now (and yet the system check...

    Check Engine Light...Won't Come On?

    Hello everyone, it's been a while since I've had time to get on. I have a 2003 Sport V8 with about 68K. Everything seems to be running normally and well, when I first purchased the car with 61K miles I replaced all 8 coils/plugs with Motorcraft and immediately stopped a mild misfire that was...

    Passenger Rear Whine/Whistle

    Hey guys, I know this has been covered before but my searches weren't the same circumstances. I'm having a noise in the rear end. ('03 V8 Sport) from the driver's seat, it sounds like it's in the passenger side. It's not quite a hum, it's pretty high pitched. It occurs after ~40+ mph and...

    Quick Part # Question

    Hey guys, I have a question about part location and number. I recently did a tune-up of all 8 COP's and plugs to Motorcraft. ('03 V8 Sport) my fuel economy improved by nearly 6 MPG, and my idle and acceleration feel much better. Oddly enough, my CEL came on after about 75 miles of doing the...

    Tune-Up Query

    Good afternoon everyone. I have a couple of questions about the tune-up I'm just wrapping up. I have a 2003 LS Sport 3.9L, which I purchased a couple months ago with 61K miles. She is in beautiful, garage-kept shape! I had only driven about 100 miles when I started to feel a slight misfire upon...
