  1. Wife checked it and said it's always been that way. Maybe I never noticed it until I was looking for something?
  2. Hi, I just replaced my steering pump and rack myself. Put it back together and I now have steering play like you describe. Everything from the intermediate shaft down is tight. I'll have to start checking above. I can see where something would come loose when wrestling out the rack. Where is this white colored guard you speak of?
  3. Was there ever an official recall or service bulletin on this issue. I think my TC might have it. I need to check if this is the specific issue.
  4. Didn't the first boosted motor grenade with stock internals?
  5. Front RH wheel bearing replaced under warranty. The cab is 'quiet' once again.
  6. Thanks 103West. So people must be getting these good willed. I am hoping I will be able to as my transit has less than 25k on it and is still under warranty.
  7. Thats great info! I didn't think of the mirror glass issue. If I go that way I'll order them from France. Je parle un peu de francais, they drive on the right side of the road.
  8. Actually members Stimr2, Z71Mudder, hogrider03, bikesag have all had wheel bearings replaced under warranty. So maybe your Euro-spec van is the exception to the rule? Can someone with a U.S. spec van weigh in? I am looking to determine if the dealer listed a technical service bulletin number on the repair order or if the replacement was goodwill or what? Thanks All.
  9. Bump. I am still looking for some info..
  10. So who did you order these through? I was thinking about doing it through Ebay but I was unsure if it would bolt on or if there was a different mounting plate installed on UK transits? So it popped right into the US mirror plate? I have power mirrors I wonder if the harness would plug in?
  11. Fix was good....and there is no longer any wind noise from the top of the door like there was after the last time they fixed it!
  12. Hey all is there a TSB or recall on front wheel bearings? I suspect mine are shot. Vibrations are getting louder in the front at 25k miles. I just wanted a bulletin number or some ammo to take into the dealer. Thanks...
  13. The 3-way speakers made a HUGE difference! Thanks Tranzy. I notice that they are much more clear at the higher volumes needed at highway speeds.
  14. Never mind, it was super easy. The 3 way speakers made a huge difference! I am impressed, the sound quality at higher speeds, where the volume has to be louder to combat road noise, is much improved! Highly recommend to anyone who wants to upgrade their sound system for less than $55.
  15. I did a site search for pictures/description of the door panel removal for front speaker install and the photos that were up on the site had broken links to photobucket. Does anyone have any pics of the panel removal and speaker install? Thanks!
  16. I am wondering this also? Anyone know how to make music play over bluetooth? What is the voice command? I have a Samsung/Google Nexus S.
  17. So I took the van home, the noise was still present after it sat overnight. SO I mentioned the noise again when I came in a week later when they were going to install the weather stripping they had ordered. They said they would do the TSB again, and despite that, the noise is still there. They couldn't fix it.
  18. Truck is at the dealership now, they're checking the rear brake drum noise according to the TSB. The clunky screeching noise.
  19. I am the original poster on this one....and yep the door seal weather stripping fell off again. I think last time Albany Ford just sorta winged it b/c there was not TSB for it yet?? I don't know? Hopefully they follow the TSB this time, if they weren't able to last time. Truck is in service now. I'll update.
  20. Thats what I was hoping for!! Which pioneer model were they again? Thanks Tranzy.
  21. Great thanks Tranzy. Were you able to retain the stock/oem speaker grill covers over the new 3-ways? How is the new sound?
  22. I saw somebody posted that they got an updated gas cap. Has anyone else got this update? Is there a bulletin?
  23. I know there have been a couple of transmission failures out there. What were the symptoms that led up to the failure? Did you hear any noises leading up to it or was it more of a physical thing (i.e. it wouldn't shift outta first)? I think i am starting to hear a speed dependent whine out of my trans. Good things these things have a 5 yr/60k powertrain warranty.
