You forget about your other cars! :p What's up erverybody? Haven't been on here in a lonnnnng time. Haven't had any trouble out of the Lincoln, actually haven't even driven it much since I picked up a 96 Subaru legacy beater to commute in. All of my spare time has been spent fixing that up to...

A co-worker sent me this today. I got a good chuckle out of it so figured I'd share. :p http://www.thetruthaboutcars.com/capsule-review-2005-lincoln-ls-v8-sport/#more-304791

Royal pain in the ass to mount those :q:q:q:qers! 4 hours and got 2 of them on. Well sort of. Getting them on the wheels wasn't so hard, but getting the damn beads to seat is :q:q:q:qing impossible! I got one to work, and I think I just got lucky. I had to give up after 3 hours of screwing with...

Today I noticed something about the climate control in my car. When I turn it on, doesn't matter what button I push, temp up, temp down, fan speed, or any of the directional buttons, it automatically turns on the AC. Which seems kind of stupid since the temp was set to 84°F inside, and the...

Been a while since I've seen one of these kind of threads. How well has your LS been behaving lately? Great? Ready to kick it to the curb? Tell all! Ill start. About 3 weeks ago my LS turned over: :cool: Now its just under 71k, and shat another coil yesterday. Went to Autozone and picked...

Does it even count as a race if some dumb:q:q:q:q in a Scion TC decides he wants to run the LS? :p No. Driving home earlier tonight and some fool in a Scion comes flying up next to me on a 4 lane road which is coming to a merge where it becomes a 2 lane road. He want's to get in front of...

Fay left a path of destruction 14 inches wide across my passenger headlight. :( The drivers headlight had a similar plight, but it cleared up as soon as the rain stopped and the sun came out. That one has been that way for days. So I guess ill be taking that one apart this weekend when I have...

Is there any difference in the rear valence between the 03+ sport and non sport models? And is that any different than the LSE valence? It looks to me like the LSE rear valence is pretty much the same except for the center panel, and it's color matched.

Is there any company that makes polyurethane suspension bushings for the LS? Does anyone know? I've had some issues with excess movement in the rear suspension and I've pretty much narrowed it down to the rear upper control arm bushings. But if I'm gonna do the uppers, I might as well do the...

Watching the show Smash Lab on Discovery channel. They're testing ideas on how to keep a car from folding up into a big mouse trap (except for people) if it happens to spin off the road and roll down a steep embankment. So they used a computer simulation to show how the two suggested plans...

Probably not the right forum for this, but this guy is crazy! :eek: :lol: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=klteYv1Uv9A :bowrofl:

Get em quick if you want em because they're on closeout. I just ordered 4 for mine. I don't need them yet, but I will before the end of the summer I'm sure. :shifty: :rolleyes: :D...

Ive had a set on the front of my car for about 3 weeks now, about 350 miles of driving on them mostly in town. Ive got this vibration that has been going on since I put these rotors on, so I know its related. It is NOT a shimmy, shake, or wobble like a warped rotor. Its a vibration. Sounds and...

I walked away for 5 minutes to get a drink and a can of brake cleaner to spray off some grime from the engine.

Pic was taken at New England Dragway on June 11. Allegedly, he blew it up at the line. :shifty: Anybody recognize it?

From searching it appears that several people here use the Akebono Pro-act ceramic pads. Opinions? I need some new pads pretty bad (grinding rivets into my rotors with the old ones) and I plan to get EBC Ultimax slotted rotors. Just looking for a decent set of ceramic pads to go with them.

If you guessed an accident, you're right. Thankfully it wasn't my LS or I would be in jail right now. Seriously I would have killed the kid who did this. Sitting at a light waiting to make a left turn. Out of nowhere this POS Honda Civic comes screaming around the corner trying to make a 90...

Realized a few days ago that it has been a LONG time since I last waxed my car. So this afternoon I hooked it up. And I had to snap a few pics before the sun went down. My personal favorite of the bunch... :cool:

Somebody has asked this before, but a search turned up every past about wheels in the past 5 years. Which doesn't help much. Just how wide are the Factory 17" 5 spoke chrome wheels. (the ones on my car) I see some posts that say 17 x7, and some that say 17x7.5. Which is it? :confused:

As of April 12th I have owned my LS for one year... so this thread is a little late. In one year I've put just over 11,000 miles on the car, replaced 4 of the 8 COPs, replaced VCGs and a few other little things for regular PM, filters and such. I made the switch to Amsoil Full synthetic...
