    Service Shop Done GOOD?!?!? and an Opinion Question

    Griff, Picked up the car last night and everything is in good order. I don't know a ton about Lincoln service, but it was night and day between the Newton dealer and the Dorchester one. I would definitely recommend it. Maybe that shop isn't very busy (because of the ghetto location) and...

    Service Shop Done GOOD?!?!? and an Opinion Question

    I'll let you know tomorrow after I pick it up. Over the phone and when I dropped it off, they were great (kind of scary that I had it in the service shop in Newton this last spring and the things I asked them to look at, they couldn't locate and then this place does so without so much as a...

    G-D Warranty Question

    Thanks for the help guys. On the way home tonight, the check engine light came on and the thing drove like my first car, an 85 olds calais. I couldn't get the thing above 2000 rpm and when it did, it immediately dropped to 1500. Not fun. It's going to the dealership tomorrow, I still have...

    G-D Warranty Question

    Ford ESP Warranty Ken, Sorry to pick on the semantics of your reply, I'm not trying to be antagonistic, but, does that mean you have one, you would get one, or that you would suggest the FORD ESP warranty for people foolish enough to want one??? I am pretty wary of dropping $1200 on an...

    G-D Warranty Question

    I have a question for all the experienced LS owners. My car has run PERFECT since I bought it last year used from a friend's friend that has a dealership in NH. It started sputtering at a stop light last night, and was slightly jerky leaving the stop light last night and wouldn't you know it...

    FreeFaller's B-Pillar

    All right, I haven't been on in a long long long time. I'm sure this has already been discussed at length. I was looking at the pictures from the picnic and saw FreeFaller's B-pillars. How do you put the Lincoln emblem on there? Is it a separate insert? Sticker? I think it looks GREAT...

    Brake Job Advice

    Hey Everybody, Thanks for the help. I looked online and didn't find any repair manuals. Does anyone make them for the 2002 Lincoln LS???? Neither Chiltons or Haynes seemed to make them.

    Brake Job Advice

    Hello all, still new to this car and maintenance. Was looking for some advice. I have a rattling at the front right wheel. It stops when I hit the brakes, so I'm guessing that it's the brake pad thats loose. Long story short, I want to get it fixed before I damage the rotor. Should I do all...

    Favorite LS feature??

    Hate to sound egotistical here, but.... No one has mentioned the looks you get after a fresh wash and detail. Would love to think they are looking at me (highly unlikely :mad: )...it's a head turner every where I go. Gotta love it.

    Am I missing something here?

    So I have had my 02 LSV8 for about two months now. When I first got it, I was amazed at the accleration, cornering, and the solid feeling that it gave me. Now after two months, not so much. It feels like I'm just driving another car. Am I being spoiled? Did anyone else go through this when...

    Color Poll!

    luckieleo, I have the tri-coat white metallic. My friend has a black one and I always wanted black until I saw the white one. He wants a white one now, I never see any of them on the road. Definitely looks good in different light.

    Is this how it's supposed to drive?

    fordman, Finally figured out that you were having a little fun with me, with the help of lsbit. No worrries there, I'm still a bit slow on the car humor. But on a somewhat serious note, is transmission lag a problem that I need to get checked out or can I fix it by resetting the PCM? Is it...

    Is this how it's supposed to drive?

    Noah, What else does resetting the PCM (what is that an abbreviation for by the way) do? Have you found anything about the '02 TSB's (abbreviation?) Thanks for all the info by the way, I'm learning more about my car than I am working right now...Can I get fired for that??? KJK

    Is this how it's supposed to drive?

    Hi everybody. I recently bought a 2002 LSV8. I'm still getting used to how it drives and what not. Just one question. From a standstill and accelerating moderately (city driving), as it's going through the gears it doesn't really jump into the next gear (like an SUV or my roommates Acura...
