Windows, blinkers, dome light not working
I had to install a new side mirror on a 2004 today. It was the passenger side and everything went smoothly. When I turned the car on to see if they would adjust by the switch they didn't. The windows wont roll up or down, the dome light doesn't work and neither do the blinkers. Can anyone tell me where I went wrong? Any hel...

2005 Ford Five Hundred CVT Transmission Fluid change?
I just went to the FORD Dealer where I bought my 2005 Ford Five Hundred LTD. AWD, CVT transmission. Currently it has 68K miles on it. According to Ford website I should have the transmission fluid changed at 60K. I went in to get it changed and they quoted me $169 for the job and I said OK, please do it. Later the mechani...

09 transmission issue (buzz/moan noise during higher shifts)
So I have a transmission issue, but it is not the same one that many others seem to be having. I have an '09 Taurus Limited with about 45,000 miles. I purchased it from a Ford dealer about 4 months ago when it had about 40,000 miles. Intermittently, on the higher upshifts (4-5 and 5-6), there is a very brief noise that h...

Anyone change their own Alternator before?
I have not pulled the alternator away from the engine yet but I have removed 2 bolts and the plastic cover but when I could not find a way out for the cover I figured the alternator was a bigger problem to remove. Have you removed your alternator and if so what path did you take with it to remove it from the car? Any help...

Considering 2010 Ford Taurus SEL W/73,000 Miles - Bad Idea?
A local dealership has a 2010 Ford Taurus SEL AWD with 73,090 miles on that they're selling at a killer price. CarFax checks out, used vehicle inspection went well, all that jazz. It appears that the car was owned by a regional salesman who put about 35,000 miles on the car per year. Would anyone advise against buying this ...

06 500 with navi-antenna adapter?
Do I need an antenna adapter to go from the factory navi radio to aftermarket? I tried to look at it, but the end looks different and I can't find one listed for it anywhere. I've got an 06 500 limited with the navigation. Thanks!...

Plasti Dip
Got bored and wanted to change the look of my Taurus. I did my wheels and the Taurus/Limited/AWD badges on the trunk lid. Three reasons why I did this, 1. gives the car a new look, 2. keeps the road salt off the chrome plating and 3. completely removable with no damage to the wheel. [img:3a46tspt]http://a6.sphotos&...

Passenger window goes up but not down via driver controls...
So when I use the drivers side window controls, all of the windows go up and down and work perfectly except for the passengers side window. It refuses to go down, but if I use the passenger side window control to move the window up or down, it works fine. Now here's the strange part; if I use the passenger side window contr...

Synchronizer Shaft Keeps Breaking
My sister has a 99 Mercury Sable. The car lost oil pressure one day, so I double checked the oil level, took the pan off, cleaned out the pickup and replaced the oil pump. Still didn't have any oil pressure. After doing some reading, I found that the engine has a problem with breaking synchronizer shaft gears. Sure enough,...

OEM oil filter
Is there a reason for the OEM oil filter on my 2012 SEL being longer than the Motorcraft replacement? Just curious. Mark...

Electrical Problem, Help Needed
I have a 2004 SEL Wagon. Frequently while driving at night the headlights will get extremely bright and then you will hear a click under the dash and the digital instrument cluster will go off for a few seconds and then come back on. This also happens during the day with the blower motor causing the same problem with the in...
