I neglected to point out the obvious: This method kept me from having to drain the system completely, and having to bleed air out of it. there was always enough fluid in the systme to prevent it from getting air. The antifreeze definately discolors the fluid, and after a while you can get pretty...

I did this about two years ago, except, I put a lot more than 2 OZ in. What I did was the "Keith Richards" method. I got a lillte pump at the parts store, pumped as much out through the top as I could, filled it back with tranny fluid as specified, ran the car for 20 seconds or so, then repeat...

Has anyone put a new starter on? I have searched previous threads and there doesn't seem to be much about it. I am certain that my starter is bad on my '02 V8 and would appreciate any instructions, hints, etc for replacing it.

Thanks to both of you for your feedback. I did see one post where someone recommended using a turkey baster to change the fluid in the reservoir. I was thinbking about using a little siphon pump to pump the reservoir down, add some fluid, run 30 seconds, pump, run, pump, run etc. Would this...

This might be the biggest bone head move on the entire LVC forum, but while trying to purge my cooling system of an air bubble, I put about a cup or so of antifreeze in the hydrallic fluid reservoir instead of the degas tank (As my Porsche driving buddy asked, "Who puts the degas tank at the...

same problem I have the same problem of not being able to shift from D5 to D4. Has anyone figured this out yet?

Still more airbag light issues '02, 88,000 miles: I was mentally prepared to replace my clockspring based on all of the info that I've read on LVC: 3-2 flashing, and then constant air bag light, steering wheel radio controls sometimes working strangely, etc. I got a quote from Torrie, and...

Splicing a new piece is an option and would probably be easier than putting in the entire carpet. However, since it is basically a brand new rug & my LS has 79,000 miles on it, the color is somewhat "blacker" and would stand out a little. Since I have the carpet, I might just replace the whole...

Unfortunately, when you spill battery acid on your LS carpet, and wipe it up, the carpet comes up, disintetgrated. I have missing spots of carpet, so paint won't do, but thanks anyway.

In perhaps one of the dumbest moves ever by an LS owner, I spilled battery acid on the front passenger side floor of my 2002 LS, and ruined the black carpet. New carpet from the dealer is $712.00 (& $350 to put it in). I can buy this at a substantil discount, but it still a very expensive...

Satellite radio install The PIE adapter plugs in to your head unit & then your head unit plugs in to your PIE adapter. You need to "Pull the radio" to do this, search posts for detailed instructions. If you can't find this, I or someone can give you detailed directions. It is not that bad. The...

I got mine from Crutchfield. $59.95, US Spec brand. When I bought mine, they had an online coupon for $10.00 off & free freight. Everthing thing that Quick says about the Media button cycling through is right on the mark. Your radio will sense the miraculously sense the adapter. The Crutchfiels...

I'm sure that many members have already figured this out, but I regularly put 18 gallons in when I fill up (but not with "regular""). Monday, I put in 19.098. I know, it's supposedly not good to let it get this low. Incidentally, this being my first Ford in 20 years, why does Ford put their...

ITnate3, I just put one in my '02 with the Alpine in dash 6 disc changer for my XM a couple of weeks ago. I actually found the best deal on the apatper from Crutfield. They sell USA Spec brand, and I found a Crutchfield coupon online for $10.00 off and free freight. This unit actually gives...

Scott, Of all of the numerous posts regarding exhaust systems for our cars, the one which made the most sense to me was the guy who took his car to a local muffler shop, got mandrel bent pipes made there, bought his choice of performance mufflers, and replaced the resonators with a...

My 2002 LS with 47,000 miles is going to the shop for the last FLM warranty claim before the warranty expires. Most of these items are nuisance problems, such as an ashtray which usually won't open, intermittent problems with the CD player not working or ejecting, the headliner flopping in the...

I know that some of this has probably been presented in pieces in various forums before, but I need some assistance in installing my XM in my 02 LS with the Alpine in dash CD changer. I plan on installing a Pro Fit LC-53-00 bracket, and P.I.E. FRDN-AUX direct input adapter. I have...
