The recall I Received was for the Rear sliders Don. I have yet to act on it , it does not affect my getting a sticker so I have let it ride. I looked at my slider latches and it looks to me like your left rear slider was not adjusted correctly with a fair amount of rubbing. The pictures of My latches show no paint damage . Lots of use and 70000+ miles. If the latches were changed it looks like they were not adjusted correctly. Keep us up dated. I wish you a good out come.

Replaced PCM twice in 500 miles? What kills PCMs?
G B L replied to Dogbert62's topic in <i>Powertrain Tech</i>
I agree with Mike The system voltage needs to be recorded over time with a scanner to see if the alternator is spiking the voltage, The battery should be tested also a bad cell could also cause a voltage spike . -
As long as they were emptied into the tank before you lean on them it will be ok!

I would try injector cleaner first, I use Sea Foam. 2 bottles in a 1/3rd of a tank of fuel. then take it out and lean on it hard. I have had very good luck using this method. Keep us up to date on your progress.

The Inside of the Two vans are closer in size than you think . Having driven both the 2014 I have is a much more competent machine. -
Ford saving money with bad engineering is not new. All the rest of the companies have done the same thing.

Most of the New cars switch the ground. One of the first things to do on any of these can bus vehicles is to do a scan, The body control Module controls the AC.

The tires that I purchased had a good rating were made in Thailand. I am running two sets on two different vehicles. When I mounted them they were very round easy to mount and No tire took More than 1 oz to balance . As they ware I will keep you up dated .

When the Continentals were all done, I put a set of these on . I went from 215-55-16 to 215-60-16 the ride improved . The Speedometer error is 2 miles per hour. It did not affect the shift quality.

I think that you use what ever technology is available on the vehicle you are using at the time. My tc has a camera, the other vehicles do not . All tow trailers.

No LED trailer lighting?
G B L replied to Prairie Dog's topic in Cargo, Hauling, Towing & Upfit Packages
Mike There is something is a miss with your trailer wiring adapter Most of the modules have a power line supplies power . it does not load the actual light circuit in the car so the lights flash at normal speed. -
Nice view, I have a portable lift that would fit in your Apt. The stairs would be hard though!

The cars last very well in Vegas but all the rubber and plastic parts get killed by the sun. Any coating used as rust proofing needs to stay soft, a hard coating like Line-X will hide the rust if any water penetrates the coating.

Up here Driving style might wear the Pads out. It is the dirt and salt that ruin the rotors . The pads had 40-50 % left . The rear pads wore faster On My rig, they got changed a year ago at 45000 miles

I have the California air compressor the noise difference is worth the price they are very well made. Once you run the two styles side buy side the choice will be clear.

Before you buy an Air Compressor check out These units Home Depot has them, So does Northern Tool . Very Very Quiet.

Choosing auto instead
G B L replied to FiorinotoFord's topic in Buying, Leasing, Ordering & Owner Impressions
I am with you, The mileage difference is small and the drive-ability of the Auto is my prefference. -

I have used lots of different brands of filters, When I change them I use a filter cutter to get element out to drain the oil out . I have found that some of the filters are nicely made and some are not. The Napa and Wix are the same and well made. The Fram is not as nice. The SuperTech and Purolator are well put together . I have just purchased an STP Mid range and I will report on it when I change the oil next and cut it open.
