    LS Resale Value

    I am possibly taking on another job that requires me to travel a lot. In this, I am considering selling my 06 Lincoln LS. Last week I stopped in a dealership to look at the 2015 Mazda6. I like the styling and the fuel mileage….. really like the car though I wish it had a few more pony’s. Curious...

    ETC Engine Failsafe after Coil Change

    I posted a few weeks back regarding some rough idling in my LS (06, 3.9 V8) ultimately to conclude that I had a coil problem. Indeed, #4 cylinder coil was bad. I ordered eight new coils, BWD brand, along with some Autolite lridium XP spark plugs. I didn’t find the job too challenging and when...

    Best COP's for the money

    Okay, at the risk of a pummeling here by those who may have answered the question on the Holy Grail for COP’s, I’m sticking it out there again. What is the best COP for the money? I’m more concerned about reliability than anything. I’ve been all over the web and this site and most information is...

    06 LS with Engine Miss

    I have an 2006 Lincoln LS V8, with 62 K miles. It is babied and I have it serviced routinely. I noted the other day at a stoplight that the car seemed to have a miss, as I could feel it. The miss is somewhat irregular, meaning does not seem like a constant miss happening in a timely manner. On...

    My ipod install

    Well after two weeks of sitting apart waiting for parts, cleaning, painting and fixing stuff, I now have IPOD capability. The sound through my OEM system is impressive, even to the ear of my 16 year old son. Many thanks to LS4me, Joeychgo and others who chimed in to answer my multitude of...

    Dead Battery Or What?

    Okay, so I've had my car apart and sitting for two weeks trying to find the time to finish an IPOD install. The battery has been disconnected. Had some time today and got it all hook up, tested and buttoned up. The IPOD install went great and it sounds awesome. After cleaning up the interior, I...

    Okay friends, not finding this and what I am finding is vague at best. Instructions for removal include removing the instrument panel trim panel and then releasing the glove compartment arm assist cable from the assist arm. What is the instrument panel trim panel?

    Need Help with IPOD Wiring

    I’m trying to add IPOD capability to my 06 LS. My head unit has the built in CD player and I have no Navigation, thus I ordered PIE # FRD03-AUX/S. With the exception of the black and red wires pictured, I fully follow the hook up. Of course it helps that there are instructions. The IPOD...

    I'm going to be pulling my stereo out to do some work and while apart I thought I would repaint the silver/grey trim. Does anybody know what color paint Ford used on this?

I have an 06 Lincoln LS without the Navigation unit and want to be able to listen to my music via IPOD. Can someone advise on a quality kit to hook me up? My son ran his IPhone through my system...

    O'reilly vs. Barney Frank

    Anybody see the factor last night? Barney Frank is real good at playing the blame game, and in fact tried to pull that crap again last night on the Factor. Frank is deep in this mess and needs to be publicly exposed for it. O'reilly lit him up last night and I was glad to see it happen. A few...

    In God We Trust (MSNBC Poll)

    Check out the results of the link below. I would imagine this is not at all how liberal, left wing, MSNBC thought this would go. Morevoer, I seriously doubt Oblerman will be reporting the results to this. Perhaps there is still hope for our country yet. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/10103521
