  1. My TC is a 2014 , I used this to reattach mine in early 2015, and that has been the end of that!
  2. Sorry I copied it from your post. But it is still worth while.
  3. There are some corners of the US that are doing a lot of towing with small front drive cars to fight the weirdness!
  4. That is great out come. If you put enough stuff in your TC like I have you won't be able to see the back windows any way!
  5. The front and rear are filled from the same place the hose for the rear goes over the right front door all the way back to the rear barn doors. Their is a splice near the on the top of the door which leaked on mine . Sounds like there is a blockage in the hose or the nozzles at the back. Pull a hose off at the back and see if the fluid comes out. Hope this helps. Mine is a 2014 so I hope they did the same on yours.
  6. Just saw this . A 1400 lb trailer weight would be fairly common for me. I bet I have been close to 2000 Lbs on many occasions .
  7. It is now 2024 The OEM Plug and O ring are at 26 + oil changes and every thing is good.
  8. If you are committed to the project get a spot weld cutter and you can take it out neatly .If you want to go the other way it is not a big deal to weld it back in as long as a neat removal was done.
  9. When mine does that it is usually a result of a low voltage start. I disconnect the bat for 5 Min's and that usually triggers a correct reset soon. This has been happening to me for 10 years . Good luck and keep us posted.
  10. If that is true what forum are you using? In any event Hi and how are you doing!
  11. I must have missed the latest Lostin Transit episode dam . when did the forum light up again I must have been asleep?
  12. Plenty of time in Maryland some time in Mid December would be good unless you have a trip to the Mtns. planed for a holiday or skiing! Here in Northern New England some time around Thanksgiving is the norm. The mud and snow and cold are similar to Estonia, but we can't get the cool headlights here!
  13. It could be that cold damp weather and mud is better for struts than Sunny hot and dusty weather?
  14. Try this put all the fuses and Relays, Then disconnect the battery for 1 minute and see if that does a reset. I use this when the battery gets low and the clock won't reset. It might help.
  15. All the doors have drain holes along the bottom edge over time they plug up with debris. Clear the holes and the water will drain.
  16. Well I cannot speak to the 8f35 and 2.0 . The 6f35 and 2.5 in mine has 35000+ miles pulling trailers and the transmission has done fine. I Use Triax universal trans fluid
  17. The ones that seem to last and last have the 2.5. Mrtn has a 1.6 running Propane he would know how that power holds up.
  18. There is life after all!1 Yes greetings to all. I hope the tail of what happened comes out. cleared 15800 miles during the hiatus .
  19. Mine is at 152450 and counting if that helps!
  20. If all that was done, you need a scan of the ABS and the Traction control. Go to the settings and turn off the Traction control and take it for a ride , see what happens Waiting for the reply !
  21. The only thing I would add it might be worth Doing a Transmission relearn to see if the shifting is a function of how the van is used. I am also a big fan of Triax Universal Trans mission fluid ti seems to hold up very well and the transmission seems to like it. TRIAX Global Full Synthetic ATF - PDS-WEB July 2018.pdf
  22. Check the Tow as that is the easiest to check and if there wasn't enough it would in crease the wandering.
