Interesting AC problem
I've got an AC problem that I hope someone can help me with. The air comes out ice cold and then randomly it will blow out ambient air for a minute or so and then go back to blowing out ice cold air. 5-15 minutes later it will do the same thing. For example, today I was driving at a constant 60mph in 93 degree weather. Oc...

Can anyone help me on how to install a 3.5mm aux jack in my interceptor? I don't know why ford would leave this out on the PI's, but we live in these cars. Thanks...

Right rear squeal
Hey All, Dropping in to ask for some advice/help. I've got a 2010 Taurus Limited with 79k on her. Over the last month, month and a half I have noticed either after long trips, or when it gets wet, the right rear produces a squeal after acceleration up to about 45mph. Had the oil changed back in February and was told the rea...

A/C Cut Out issue??
Has anyone had an issue with a bad A/C cut out switch? When the weather gets warmer my electric fans come on full tilt and the compressor will not cycle. If I shut the car down and tap on the switch sometimes I can get the A/C to work. Is this truly a bad switch or do I have another issue somewhere? This is the switch that'...

Tilting headrests
Wow, Just found out by accident that the headrests in my 2013 Taurus SEL tilt. How cool is that! You can tilt them forward as there is a racheting mechanism. You can hear the clicks as you move the headrest forward. If you adjust them too far forward, you can tilt them all the way forward to release the mechanism so they re...

Codes: P0171 & P0174 (system too lean bank 1 & 2)
I've been trying to solve these two codes for a week now! They both lean towards either the TPS(throttle position sensor), or the MAF(mass airflow sensor). I started out by cleaning the throttle body, no help! Code would come back after a few hours of driving, & it would occationally idle a bit rough, & sometimes s...

2000 Sable location of power steering filter?
I just got this car from a relative, the power steering pump was leaking a little, due to 3-yrs. of not running. So, after some magic in a bottle, it cured the problem! What I'd like to do, is now flush the system, & change the filter. I noticed on Autozones website, they sell a power steering filter, that is in the ret...

MGP Caliper Covers
Hello everyone, I was not successful with the MGP caliper cover mod. Ordered the satin black with red Ford logos. Wanted to do this specifically for cosmetics. Hide the ugly calipers. Especially with the open wheels of the 2013 SEL. Backs went right on no issues. Fronts were another story. Clips that hold them on rubbed on ...

2013 19" Wheels
By the end of next week, I am likely to have 2 sets of 19" 2013 Taurus rims - one set from an SEL, one set from a Limited. The SEL set has about 8500 miles on them, no damage. The Limited are straight take offs, about 500 miles. No tires, but all lugs and caps and TPMS. Idea as to what they might fetch price wise? ...
