    Right Front Turn Sigal Not Working

    Check all of your brake lights to be sure they are operational- even the ones over the back glass. Also check your trailer plug to make sure none of the wires are worn & 'shorting' out. If all of those things are OK, then you likely have a wiring problem to that non-functional light.

    which trans?

    You need to make sure that any fluid you use is "Mercon V" compatible. At this time, the standard Mobil1 fluid is not. Mobil does offer a Mercon V Synthetic 'blend'. No telling who supplies Ford with the factory fill. They probably buy from whoever has the best price on the fluid that...

    which trans?

    It's an AODEW/4R75. Should be listed on your window sticker- if you got it when you purchased the vehicle. Unfortunately, there's very little information on this "new for '04" tranny. Probably just a slightly stronger version of the older 4R70W.

    UGH, Wife wrecked the car!

    Too bad about the damage. Will probably take some cutting, welding & grinding just to get ready for the putty & paint. I suggest taking it to a GOOD bodyshop for repair. If you don't use a good shop, a potential buyer won't need 'carfax' to tell them it's been wrecked.

    Painting the lower cladding - 03/04 XLT

    They sure look sharp with color-matched cladding. I'm pretty fortunate in that the cladding helps contrast the red fire NBX and, despite the fact that I HATE plastic cladding, it doesn't look too bad. I also hate to admit that the plastic does a good job of handling the abuse from stones &...

    Cleaning Lower Panels on 2003 XLT

    Yup Ken- there's no escaping me! :D I remember you mentioning an Expy site some time ago. Did a little "googling" and found this place. Been lurking a couple of weeks as I didn't really have anything to add- until today. On topic: I purchased my 303 from camping world...

    Cleaning Lower Panels on 2003 XLT

    Have you tried "303 Aerospace Protectant"? It isn't cheap nor is it real easy to find, but so far, it seems to be working well on all of the plastic of our '04.
