Hi everyone , wife just got a temporary (1 year only) job 500 miles away so I’ll be commuting every couple of weekends to go see her. My Lincoln is my workhorse , it has been very reliable to me thus far.
I have a 2004 v6 with 157k. What should I do to prep the car for these long trips?
Here’s some back story to what I’ve done and what is wrong. I have a code for the O2 sensors (going to change all 4 soon), the belt is original so I’m going to change that as well. Changed the solenoid pack a year ago and have kept up with the trans service so far. Coils and plugs changed at 120k. Struts are decent enough, all bushings and ball joints have seen better days. Flushed coolant and brake fluid at 150k.
what would be worth replacing to avoid a brake down?
