    Cleaned up the rear view

    I really don't care if its a violation of law or not Its a violation of my common sense to black out any lights on the back of my vehicle. If anything I would add more

    Don’t let your passenger put their feet on the dash. Unless you have an extra $2500 laying around!!

    Good. If not it would have went against my 20+ years of experience dealing with these as I have never seen or heard of such a thing before.

    Best case scenario for DTC P0741

    I have no idea We did TSB's as warranty work on vehicles in the lot if that's what you are asking and this was back in the mid '80s timeframe I am not talking about this specific update I am talking about TSB's in general

    Best case scenario for DTC P0741

    Most TSB's in general are worth doing When I worked at a L/M dealer, when it got slow we would search all the vehicles in the lot for outstanding TSB's and do them to keep us working

    I have been trying to tell you its separate. I used to work at Ford Motor Company building prototype vehicles for 13 years. 5 of those years I prepped cars for the crash barrier. The airbags have always been a separate assembly. Just like in the diagram I could see it being 2 hours labor, what...

    My 08 had that airbag deploy when I hit a deer (my avatar) plus the drivers side one too It was nothing like $2500, they would have totaled the vehicle if so. I think it was about $500 on the invoice I saw. The whole job was about $7k it was real close to being totaled but they were able to...

    Rear hub removal

    the torch was to get the bolts out that are retaining the hub to the axle Do as I suggested it will come right off. penetrating oil wont do anything to this

    Hit and run... :(

    probably depends on the state ins laws. My wife got sideswiped in her Milan, the guy kept going. 7K in damage it was covered, no deductible either. she had no plate number on him he was long gone but Michigan is a no fault state

    Rear hub removal

    hit the side of the flange (to twist it out) with a big punch and a bigger hammer, I used an air hammer if you have one I had to take the parking brake shoes off to gain access to the flange to hit it from the side

    Ecoboost Oil Change

    exactly right depends on the oil pan also depends on if you get the tube to the very lowest part of the pan no guarantee of that you are guaranteed of it if you drain it via the plug also they suck out very slow compared to the rush of oil that comes out of the drain plug. In my opinion...
