Steering wheel free play annoyance / issue.
zepper replied to Timbo's topic in 2002-2013 Ford Transit Connect
Wife checked it and said it's always been that way. Maybe I never noticed it until I was looking for something? -
Steering wheel free play annoyance / issue.
zepper replied to Timbo's topic in 2002-2013 Ford Transit Connect
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? -
ALERT Power Steering Hose Problem
zepper replied to Hal's topic in Recalls & Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs)
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. -
Didn't the first boosted motor grenade with stock internals?

Front RH wheel bearing replaced under warranty. The cab is 'quiet' once again.
-
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.

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.

Bump. I am still looking for some info..

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!
-
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...

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.
-
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.

Operation Adventure Transit
zepper replied to Bikesnbreakdowns's topic in Accessories and Modifications
What happened to those rally wheels bro? -
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!
-
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.

Rear brake drum recall
zepper replied to PetrosA's topic in Recalls & Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs)
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. -
Rear brake drum recall
zepper replied to PetrosA's topic in Recalls & Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs)
Truck is at the dealership now, they're checking the rear brake drum noise according to the TSB. The clunky screeching noise. -
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.
-
Thats what I was hoping for!! Which pioneer model were they again? Thanks Tranzy.
-
Great thanks Tranzy. Were you able to retain the stock/oem speaker grill covers over the new 3-ways? How is the new sound?
-
I saw somebody posted that they got an updated gas cap. Has anyone else got this update? Is there a bulletin?
-
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.
