    Rain problem - success! ??

    I have a 2004 Lincoln LS V8 sport. For a long time I have had a problem with water in the trunk. Solved (?) this by drilling a couple of holes in the bottom of the trunk. Anyway, just recently had several days of heavy rain. Car wouldn't start. Engine would not turn over. The only light on...

    Thanks. When I bought this car it had an after market remote start/anti theft system which I had removed. Maybe there is something still there somewhere. Will check. Thanks.

    Kuhmo tires

    I have a set of Bridgestone Potenza RE960AS Pole Position tires on my LS. These are all season, high speed tires. Very good handling and are wearing very well - over 30k miles and still some tread left.

    Transmission hard downshift

    Thanks - it sounds as though the hard shifting is normal under those conditions. Shifting into reverse is OK unless parked on a slope without the parking brake on. Think I may get the tranny fluid changed anyway.

    Replacement radio for 2004 LS?

    I have a standard radio with the 6 CD changer built into the dash. Works well but I am in Europe and radio stations here use different frequencies from the US. In particular the frequency changes in steps of 0.2 - like 97.1, 97.3 and so on. Unfortunately a lot of staions here use even number...

    Rear driver side window stuck in up position

    Follow up: I left the moonroof open by mistake and used the key to close it - except I turned the key the wrong way and all (yes all) the windows and roof opened. So the window problem is fixed - working perfectly. Must have been some electrical glitch.

    Rear driver side window stuck in up position

    I have read a lot of posts about window regulator failure and most seem to involve the window falling down. My rear driver side window is stuck in the up postion. Neither the door switch nor the drivers door master switch work. Fuse is OK. Is my problem likely to be the regulator or the...

    Input needed on the coils

    I bought a set of 8 for $140 from global automotive which looked OK but the connector pins were different (larger). If you are looking to pay $40+ each you may as well buy genuine Motorcraft parts from somewhere like Five Star Ford.
